Shin Daa! Daa! Daa! (新☆だぁ!だぁ!だぁ!^?) is a manga and a sequel to Daa! Daa! Daa! by Mika Kawamura. While Daa! Daa! Daa! is nine volumes long, Shin Daa! Daa! Daa! is more like a short story as it is only two volumes long.

The story

At the end of Daa! Daa! Daa!, a rescue team from Planet Otto came to rescue an inhabitant Ruu who had become separated from his home planet because of a wormhole months ago. Ruu went back to Otto along with his babysitter-pet named Wannyā and his pet rabbit-creature, Pepo.

Now, many years later, Ruu meets a confused earthling girl called Miu that has arrived through a wormhole. Miu desperately wants to go home and he agrees. Unbeknownst to him, Miu is the daughter of exactly the same people who took excellent care of him during his stay on Earth, Miyu Kōzuki and Kanata Saionji. They meet Ran, Ruu's best friend, a robot named Ann and Mininyā, Wannyā's son.

Characters

Miu Saionji (Saionji Miu)

Miu Saionji is Kanata and Miyu's daughter. She is in 6th grade and is currently 12 years old. She arrives at the planet Otto through a wormhole. Miu develops her feelings for Ruu through the series of the manga.

Ruu

Ruu is an alien from Planet Otto who has the ability to fly. He accompanies Miu in her journey to return to earth. He is Ran's best friend and he has a pet named Mininyā who is Wannyā's son. He is clueless that Miu is the daughter of the ones who took care of him during his stay on Earth.

Conclusion of the series

They return to Earth six months later but in reality, only half a day has passed since Miu was separated from her home. Ruu and his other friends decide to remain on Earth before leaving again for Planet Otto.

As they stay on Earth, Ruu met and was reunited with his 'parents'; Miyu and Kanata. At first he doesn't know them, but then he remembers that they were the two people who took care of him and loved him very much when he was on Earth, whom he called Mama and Papa.

Miyu and Kanata missed him very much and embrace him. At first Miu is surprised but finally understands when her parents tell her about the story. Miyu and Kanata welcome their 'child' and his friends to stay at their place.

Meanwhile, Miu finally realized her feelings for Ruu, but she was too afraid to confess. Miyu noticed that her daughter had fallen in love with her 'child', but she tells Miu to 'stay in the present...'

Instead of confessing to Ruu, Miu decided to keep it to herself, and just makes as many memories with Ruu as possible. Finally Ruu and his friend decide to go home, which upsets Miu very much.

However Miu still didn't say anything about her feelings toward Ruu until finally she realized that she is lying to herself and she just wants Ruu to know her feelings.

As Ruu's spaceship went up into the sky, Miu shouted to the sky that she loved Ruu. Ruu then replied with a kiss from, saying that he loves her too. Both of them are very happy that they can finally be truthful about their feelings toward each other and Ruu decides to stay on Earth.

But Miu tells him to go back, to the people he loves on Planet Otto. Ruu then promised to Miu that he would come back when it is time. But as the spaceship flies off, Miu gets zapped and her memories disappear. This worries Miyu but Kanata told his wife to let it be this way.

Two years pass and Miu becomes an 8th grader; which Kanata said was the age and time that Miyu and he first met. Then as Miu walks to school along the Saionji's front step, she met a boy that asked if that is the Saionji's (which is the last scene of the prequel original).

Miu said yes and she accidentally dropped a little bunny doll (that Ruu gave to her 2 years ago), and Ruu picks up the bunny for her. Miu thanked him, saying that she doesn't remember where she get it, but it was a very important thing for her. Then Ruu replied, 'I'm back, Miu'. Then Miu finally remembers Ruu and embraces him.
