This is the greatest anime of all.
Gakuen Alice (学園アリス, Gakuen Arisu?) is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Tachibana Higuchi, currently being serialized in the shōjo manga magazine Hana to Yume.[1] It was adapted into an anime series, which was produced by Aniplex and Group TAC and was originally premiered on NHK BS-2. It spanned twenty-six episodes, between October 30, 2004 and May 14, 2005. The anime was translated and dubbed into English by the anime television network Animax, and the dubbed version has then been broadcast on networks throughout Asia.[2] At Anime Expo 2008, The Right Stuf International announced that its Nozomi Entertainment division had licensed Gakuen Alice for the North American market.
Gakuen Alice is the story of a 10-year old girl Mikan Sakura who is devastated when her best friend, Hotaru Imai, transfers to a school for "genius" kids in Tokyo. After hearing rumors of what happens in the Academy, Mikan runs away from home and leaving her grandfather to seek out her dear friend, and finds that the school Hotaru transferred to, Gakuen Alice, is specifically for children who each have a special ability called an "Alice". To Mikan's surprise, a teacher there, Narumi, discovers that she too has an unique Alice, and admits her to the school.
The story is primarily focused on Mikan and her experiences at the Academy, from the everyday bore of classes and exams, to the unexpected clashes with the Anti-Alice Organization (AAO). Despite her initial view of the so-called greatness of the school, Mikan slowly finds out that beneath the grand facade of the Academy lies a never-ending stream of lies and deception.
Mikan, meets a boy named Natsume, whom she at first hates but unconsciously cares for him, and eventually starts to form a friendship with him, and soon, she became someone whom he loved. Natsume has the Alice of fire and is in the Dangerous Ability class. Natsume hates the Academy and is forced to do its dirty work. Narumi thinks that Mikan holds the key to save Natsume and change the Academy. Natsume's friendship with Mikan continues to grow until she admits her feelings for him, and admits to herself that she loves him and will do anything to protect him.
Along with the many friends she comes to make, including Natsume's best friend, Ruka Nogi, and the class representative, Yū Tobita a.k.a. Iinchō, Mikan comes to love the Academy and its teachers, but its increasingly manipulative and sinister actions toward her make it a dangerous place to be.
Alice Type
1. Latent Type- Latent alices are the most common in the school, and involve powers connected to ESP abilities. It's the most normal class and students here are of the serious type. Examples include teleportation and xray vision.
2. Technical Type- Just like its name, Technical Alice types appear when the individual experiments, such as cooking, drawing, etc. The Alices in this type are based on technology and research fields. Example include the ability to put souls into stuffed toys.
3. Somatic Type- This type is not filled with inventions or practice unlike other classes. The Somatic Alices are based on the body of humans, animals, and other living things, and appear in pheromone or physical ability. Examples include voice control, ability to run fast, and ability to change the facial appearance as you wish.
4. Special Ability- Basically, this class is for students with Alices that don't exactly fit in any of the other three classes. Their powers are different and the class is mixed. Some of the rarest Alices belong to this class. Some examples include the Doppelganger Alice and Nullification Alice.
5. Dangerous Ability- This is considered to be an extra type: basically, the Alice is so strong that it is a threat to the school. This class is very different from all the others and could also be described as an occult. Examples are the Stealing Alice and the Fire Alice.
Alice Shape
Every Alice is categorized as one of four shapes, which specify how much of it can be used and how often.
1. Childhood: The Alice slowly appears and disappears as the child with it grows into an adult.
2. Diffuse: The Alice is always available, but at a relatively low power level.
3. Intermittent: The Alice can only be used for a short period at any time, but at a relatively high power level.
4. Limitless: The Alice can be used as often and as much as desired, but each use impacts against the user's own life and can kill them if overused.
Star-Ranking
A star-ranking is the evaluation system that the Academy uses to judge a student's school work, Alice level and attitude. There are four rankings which are indicated by the number of gold stars on a student's collar.
1. No-Star: Students who are below-average. This is mainly reserved for children.
2. Single: Students who are pretty much average. Most of the students in the Elementary School Division have this rank and is needed to graduate the Elementary School Division.
3. Double: Students who are more of an over-achiever than Singles but aren't exceptionally brilliant at either their studies or use of their Alice and is needed to graduate the Middle School Division.
4. Triple: Students who usually are deemed as "over-achievers" and tend to excel at either their studies or use of Alice or both and is needed to graduate the High School Division.
5. Special: Students who are considered the best of the best, signified by a label in the shape of a star enclosed in a circle (though rarely seen in the anime). Those who excel tremendously in their Alice and, if they care, their studies--to put in short, geniuses. Also known as the "Principal students".
Each star ranking has its own monthly allowance rate:
1. No-Star: 5 Rabbits: (equal to about 500 yen or 5 US dollars)
2. Single: 30 Rabbits: (equal to about 3000 yen or 30 US dollars)
3. Double: 50 Rabbits: (equal to about 5000 yen or 50 US dollars)
4. Triple: 100 Rabbits: (equal to about 10 000 yen or 100 US dollars)
5. Special: 300 Rabbits: (equal to about 30 000 yen or 300 US dollars
