This anime, compared to others I've watched, ROCKS! Not because it was a sci-fi anime (well not just that, anyway)also because there's drama, too. The main character, Tsubasa has a lot of qualities that I find in myself. In the first episode she's shy, lacks self esteem, and doesn't really talk to the other kids in her new school, but all that changes when she meets an alien man named D.D. Unfortanately when she encounters the mysterious guy, Tsubasa is attacked by a monster called a Maguar. Before she's killed however, a little green tube (called a ribbers)fuses with her body to create a suit to protect her. Inside the suit, which is later called Figure 17 (hence the title), Tsubasa hears another girl's voice that guides her in defeating the monster and saving. Tsubasa defeats the monster and goes back to her normal state, yet the ribbers becomes a mirror image of herself and calls herself Hikaru.
Now the world is in the hands of these two until backup from D.D.'s home planet comes to aid in the destruction of the Maguar. Of course while saving the world, Hikaru teaches Tsubasa the strength to believe in herself and get over her shyness. Also many of the people in Hikkaido believe they're twins. If you watch this anime, you'll see that most of it isn't all fun and games, you'll cry when you see how much many of the characters are like you. Please watch it!
