The first episode finds Arumi announcing that her family are leaving the failing Shopping Arcade for pastures new, much to the disappointment of Sasshi.

Both Arumi Asahina and her best friend Sasshi Imamiya perfectly capture the spirit of preteens - loud, bratty and full of energy, not quite grown up enough to leave their love of toys and sweets behind them, but smart enough to survive on their wits and to recognise the idiocy of the world around them. MSAA is the story of two 12 year olds who were raised in the Abenobashi shopping arcade in Osaka. There are notable exceptions to this self-enforced exile - anything starring Rik Mayall and Ade Edmonson (Bottom, The Young Ones) is essential viewing, but in general I avoid the genre as best I can - especially in anime, where it's even harder to take it seriously given that Japanese and English cultural references are so wildly different. I'm not a fan of madcap comedy - I find slapstick humour and toilet gags largely unappealing, and therefore avoid anything that contains a whiff of it like the plague.
