Futakoi Alternative (フタコイ オルタナティブ?) is a 13 episode anime television series by ufotable. The series features many of the characters from the original Futakoi, though the story and settings are completely different. There is a manga adaptation of the show drawn by Kanao Araki.

[edit] Story

Futakoi Alternative tells the story of Rentarō Futaba and his detective agency. One day a set of twins, Sara and Sōju, show up at his doorstep. They begin to live with him and work as secretaries to his business.

Classifying Futakoi Alternative as a specific genre is extremely difficult, although at its core, it is most similar to a romantic comedy. The first handful of episodes are extremely lighthearted, but the series gets increasingly more serious as it approaches its conclusion. The criticisms about the show are normally the same as its accolades: Namely, that it never settles completely into any one genre or style and switches between them from episode to episode (being almost equal parts romance, action, scifi/fantasy and comedy).
