Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is a Japanese anime television series produced by Xebec and directed by Tsuyoshi Nagasawa that began airing in 2012 on TV Tokyo. The show is based on a light novel series of the same name written by Manta Aisora and illustrated by Koin.

The plot revolves around Mahiro Yasaka, a high school student who is constantly being targeted by aliens. However, his life is turned upside down when he meets Nyarlathotep, a powerful alien known as a Crawling Chaos. Nyarlathotep, or Nyaruko for short, is in love with Mahiro, and will protect him from other alien threats at any cost.

Although the show is primarily a sci-fi action series, it also has elements of comedy and romance. The comedy comes from the interactions between the main characters, including Nyaruko's absurd and often exaggerated expressions and behavior. The romance develops slowly throughout the show, as Mahiro struggles to reconcile his own feelings towards his overprotective alien bodyguard.

One of the most interesting aspects of Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is the way it incorporates Lovecraftian horror elements into a romantic comedy. The show features numerous references to the works of H.P. Lovecraft, including the use of the Necronomicon, Nyarlathotep's true form, and other cosmic horrors that threaten to destroy the world. However, these horror elements are played for laughs rather than scares, giving the show a unique tone.

The animation in Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is bright and colorful, with a fun and lively art style that perfectly complements the wacky tone of the show. The action scenes are fast-paced and exciting, with Nyarlathotep using her various powers and weapons to take down other aliens in battle. The show also features some impressive mecha designs and a variety of different alien creatures, each with its own unique abilities and weaknesses.

Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is also notable for its excellent voice acting, with Eri Kitamura delivering a standout performance as Nyarlathotep. Kitamura imbues the character with a wide range of different emotions, from her manic energy to her tender moments of affection towards Mahiro. The supporting cast is also well-rounded, with each character bringing something unique to the show.

Overall, Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is a highly entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable anime series. Its unique blend of science fiction, horror, comedy, and romance make it appeal to a wide range of viewers, while its bright and colorful animation and excellent voice acting bring the characters to life in a way that is both fun and engaging. Whether you're a Lovecraft fan or just looking for a fun new anime series to watch, Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is definitely worth checking out.

Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos is a series that is currently running and has 3 seasons (36 episodes). The series first aired on April 9, 2012.
