Dec 22 2006 08:28 AM Yes it does, but the story itself is hilarious. That little baby is just so cute, a little ball of pure cuteness....and Natsumi is adorable, trying to care for her. The series originally aired in 1992, so little Natsumi as a 4th grader, comes from that time period while grown Natsumi, lives in the year 2007. This one's a keeper for me...51 episodes? Wow...

That little gadget is interesting, sorta like a baby monitor/walkie talkie/cell phone all rolled into one

. If you can look beyond the dated animation and music, you've got yourself a cute and funny little story.
