NieA Under 7

Set in the twenty-first century, Earth has become home to an extraterrestrial population living quietly alongside humanity. In the tranquil, unassuming town of Enohana, Mayuko Chigasaki is a university student burdened by extreme poverty. Her already strained finances are stretched even thinner by her living situation, as she shares her modest home with NieA, an alien classified under the lowest social tier known as "Under Seven." While Mayuko works tirelessly to scrape together enough money to survive each day, her otherworldly roommate remains blissfully indifferent to the practical consequences of her carefree behavior. The stark contrast between Mayuko’s relentless diligence and NieA’s complete lack of responsibility inevitably leads to friction, turning their shared household into a stage for constant comedic clashes. Yet, beneath the lighthearted domestic chaos of this mismatched pair, a quiet mystery lingers over the town. The decaying wreckage of the original alien mothership rests ominously in the background, serving as a constant reminder of the visitors' extraordinary origins. As Mayuko navigates the daily challenges of poverty and cohabitation, the looming silhouette of the ship casts a long shadow over their ordinary lives, blending mundane struggles with the lingering echoes of an interstellar arrival.
