Synopsis

Sometime during the late 19th century, a young Asian girl has made a place for herself in a seaside town as the owner and operator of the Tenkai restaurant and boarding house..

Yet "Miss China," as the locals call her, is in the dumps. She's got a Mad Scientist named Breckenridge living upstairs who is chronically late with the rent, and she's pining for Jim, a handsome watchmaker's apprentice whom she mistakenly believes is pursuing the local flower girl.

But this isn't our world. It is a world that has the Spirit of Wonder, where every so often, just occasionally mind you, amazing things happen. The Mad Scientist actually has come up with an incredible invention, and Jim has an unbelievable plan to use it to give Miss China the most beautiful ring in all the World.

Ms China on the moon

It's impressive, how much they do is so little time. I'm already connected to these wacky characters in the 40 minutes watching it and they're just so like a ball and romance feels so relatable and late back cute .

Ms China is such a cute waifu. I really enjoy she action her face expression just everything about her almost wish there were more.

And I really enjoyed the technical design from enemies in the 90s. They look so detailed and grimy and just something you couldn't make I really enjoyed technical designs of this anime and the doctor and student are just ...

_Miss China's Ring_ is a curious little OVA. The animation is actually pretty good for the period: it strikes a sort of realistic Ghibli style that holds up well 20 years later.

(I say soft because any hard SF author would immediately point out that destroying the moon would eliminate most tides and causing global mass destruction of ecologies, the deaths of millions of creatures, environmental & humanitarian catastrophes, and resultant social & geopolitical upheaval.) It doesn't really go anywhere after that, so ...
