Lucky Star
Plot Summary

Lucky Star follows the hilarious and mischievous daily lives of four young girls as they move through high school.

About the Show

Lucky Star is an anime adaptation of the comedy four-panel manga series under the same name, created by Kagami Yoshimizu. Produced by Kyoto Animation, the show aired a total of 24 episodes between April 08, 2007 and September 16, 2007. The series also spawned 4 videogames, which were mostly made for handheld devices.

Characters

Konata Izumi
Main protagonist and leader of the Lucky Star Crew, Konata Izumi is an outgoing and mischievous tomboy otaku. Although naturally intelligent, she does not take her studies seriously and choose to play her videogames instead. She also likes manga and anime, which might be an influence from his otaku father. In order to fund her hobbies, she works part-time at a cosplay café in Akibahara.

Kagami Hiiragi
Fraternal twin of Tsukasa Hiiragi, Kagami is in some ways similar to Konata. Although appearing to be a tomboy, she also has a sensitive and girly side. She enjoys playing videogames just like Konata, but prefers the side-scrolling shooter over other genres. Despite sharing this same interest, she and Konata are always squabbling and annoying each other. Aside from playing videogames, she also enjoys reading light novels. Unlike Konata, she has an excellent performance in school, and was elected president during her first year.

Tsukasa Hiiragi
Younger twin of Kagami, Tsukasa is the stereotypical klutz and timid girl. She is in the same class as Konata, and both of them usually rely on Kagami to do their homework for them. Although liking the Sgt. Frog series, she is not as fond of anime as Konata or Kagami. She is extremely shy, innocent, and gentle, which leads to others taking advantage of her timid nature.

Miyuki Takara
Extremely well-mannered and polite, Miyuki Takara is the last member of the Lucky Star crew. She is from a wealthy family, and does well on her studies. Most of her classmates rely on her, as she is one of the top students in their classroom. When asked about academic matters, she tends to give elaborate and highly detailed explanations on the spot. This might be a result of her fondness for reading. She is the only one that wears glasses among the Lucky Star crew, and appears less often in the show.
