16-year-old Makoto Niwa thinks he's about to live the dream life: with his parents conveniently away on business, he moves out to the big city to live with his 39-year-old aunt, Meme Touwa. Cue dreams of having the house all to himself, surrounded by pretty city girls and living out a normal adolescent life.All that comes to a screeching halt the moment he steps into Meme's home to find a young girl — Meme's hitherto unknown daughter and his cousin, Erio — wrapped in a futon lying on the front step. Worse than that, she speaks strangely. And thinks she's an alien.Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl (Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko; lit. Electrical Wave Girl and Youthful Man) is a series of light novels written by Hitoma Imura and illustrated by Buriki, which were published from 2009 to 2011 with a total of eight volumes. The story follows Makoto as he finds out more about his confused cousin and her strange beliefs about how their entire lives are nothing but a huge alien experiment.An anime adaptation by Studio Shaft aired from April to July 2011.

Baseball Episode: Not so much an episode, but Makoto and Erio join an amateur baseball team in later episodes. Episode 12, dealing with the fateful baseball game that will determine which side of the town will host the summer festival, plays this trope the straightest.

comment
Gratuitous English: Multiple times, often by Meme as a way to avoid explaining something she said. In Episode 2, Makoto asks for directions when taking Erio on the bike, she responds with "Left Side", "Reright", and eventually "Sunny side up". She also dumbs down her Techno Babble to explain to Makoto that "I can fly". During the ending credits of Episode 3, her tallying up the event when Makoto forces her to face the fact that she actually can't is "I can't fly." Maekawa responds to Ryuuko saying that she and Makoto can't go to the beach together with "Why?" There's also Tamura-san's "CATAUW MUTILASHION!" and Yashiro's "HELLO AND GOODBYE!" In episode 11, while Ryuuko talks to Makoto over the phone, Erio bursts into his room to take him out for some stargazing. Ryuuko gets annoyed by the sudden interruption, and says "Be quiet", followed by "Attention please."

Wham Line: Meme gives one to Makoto in episode 3, when she tells him if he's only hanging out with Erio because she's pretty, he should stop right now. It comes as a complete shock to him because its probably the first time she speaks in a serious tone to him. Despite that, he continues to help Erio out as much as he can.

Cannot Spit It Out: Ryuuko towards Makoto. At times she seems like she wants to, but then some Moment Killer happens or she goes into Clingy Jealous Girl mode. Averted with Erio towards Makoto, although whether it's a romantic interest or just her being comfortable around him, due to her largely being a loner up until he shows up.

Security Blanket: Erio's futon, which she wears under the justification that she cannot interact with the humans she's observing. In episode 2, she gets it swapped out for a smaller one that she cannot completely hide in. It's adorable. Even after she comes to grips with reality, she still finds being wrapped in one very calming. Meme also uses the futon, even as she tries to come to grips with the harsh truth that she just turned forty.

However, Makoto was just telling Erio that he'd go outside to go stargazing, but Ryuuko hangs up before he can explain.

New Transfer Student: Makoto transfers to the school at the beginning of the story, at the start of his second school year. He remarks that the timing should help to keep him from standing out too much because of it, although that doesn't seem to actually end up being the case. The title of "transfer student" should only really apply to him for the first term at most, but Strictly or otherwise, many characters still refer to him as "tenkousei" note the Japanese name for this trope long after it's really appropriate.

Kissing Cousins: Makoto finds Erio attractive, is unable to stop trying to help her despite Meme telling him otherwise, and is easily reminded of her even when socializing with other girls. As of episode 4, Erio seems to have started reciprocating Makoto's interest in her, and in episode 5 she outright tells him that she likes him. But in the anime it is also ambiguous as to whether this is a romantic attraction or just a friendly one.

Saying Sound Effects Out Loud
 Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl / int_9014df71
comment
Saying Sound Effects Out Loud: Ryuuko when exchanging numbers with Makoto note *kachi kachi kachi* for *click click click* while tapping on a cellphone, and later Makoto when congratulating Ryuuko for her clever play on words with "Not able to sleep / not having any dreams" note *pachi pachi pachi* for *clap clap clap*. Related is that Ryuuko rather abuses onomatopoeias in every conversation with Makoto, replacing various words in the middle of sentences with their sound effects instead. It's one of her primary charm points, although most of the instances don't really lend themselves to being easily depicted in translations. Erio also does this on occasion, usually when in a really good mood, although half of the time she's not really vocalizing specific sound effects so much as just making random sounds for fun.

Refrigerator Ambush: Played for Laughs when Meme leaves a note that there's cake in the fridge to celebrate Makoto's discharge from the hospital, and it's close to the expiration date, so he needs to eat it quick. It's an Overly Prepared Gag — the cake is herself.

Imagine Spot: Makoto has a lot of these. Hilariously played with during Episode 4 when he's in hospital and imagines seeing Ryuuko, then Maekawa appears under the bedsheets of his bed, and the third person he sees is Meme. At first it seems be another imagination, only to then have him wish it were the case when Meme really does turn out to be under his sheets.

Oh, Crap!: Makoto is usually stoically skeptical on the topic of the supernatural but he looks positively a second away from having a heart attack in episode 13 when Hoshimiya's claims of giving a demonstration about her powers is followed by a freaking METEORITE falling down from space onto the exact spot he was standing in not a minute before. Even more so once he realizes her instructions about him taking a specified number of steps in a specified direction actually saved him from being hit dead-on by it.

Bumbling Mom: Meme does love her little girl, and the only time she's ever been shown to be serious was when she's thinking about Erio. But that doesn't stop her from showing she has absolutely no idea on how to be a parent. At best, she's more like an emotionally stunted older sister. At worst, she's willing to fling her daughter around the house.

Shout-Out
 Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Meme's dialogue is full of anime memes and references to video games. For example, she quotes the intro to EarthBound Beginnings multiple times when having dinner with Makoto. (Later, in Episode 6, it's shown that Erio has a Mr. Saturn plushie in her room, continuing the EarthBound Series references.) The ending has one for E.T. Erio ATTEMPTED to do the same. It... didn't work out, and is now the reason she wears that futon. Makoto saying he'll destroy Erio's illusions before deciding he's not Hot Blooded enough. He does it anyway. This◊ in episode 5: Meme gives Makoto and Erio a map of how to get to a certain hair salon to get Erio's hair cut. Apparently Meme is a bit of a fan of Street Fighter. "Stop, stop, stop, stop! I'm a Makoto, too! Stop it! Time, stop!" "IIIIIIII KYAAAAAN'T FRYYYYYYYYYY!" "How much of that was you acting cold? "99.7% real, 0.3% acting." "What about me?" "About 5 Centimeters per Second!" The last episode makes two more references to 5 Centimeters per Second. The episode's title is "0.00000000198 Centimeters Per Second", and Makoto also says the words "One more time, one more chance", which is the title of the theme song of the aforementioned film. Another possible shout out is, perhaps, this series' protagonist sharing his first name with the director of 5 Centimeters per Second, Makoto Shinkai. Erio's bizarre, Pokémon-like noises whilst in the futon are a shout out to Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu. "Do you think I'd let a runaway who eats off fields in here?" Guess to whom this line is addressed to. Then think of a certain blue-haired character in a white nun's habit and remember how much of a glutton she is. Episode 11 references the Yiddish folk song "Donna donna" about a calf being taken to slaughter. Difficult to say where this one comes from, since it's appeared in numerous anime, including Revolutionary Girl Utena and Ghost in the Shell: SAC. Another one in Episode 11 when Makoto and Maekawa are playing a game on the television. It's Mario Kart with different colors. You can also see a "Father 2" cartridge. In episode 10, after Makoto and Yashiro jump into the pool, she says "Take this, Kamehamaha!" At the end of volume 3, Yashiro tries PK Starstorm on Makoto. The ensuing meteorite leaves quite a mark on him. Near the end of the 13th episode, there is a shout out to Evangelion - Makoto talks with himself by asking himself questions and aswering them, in two distinctly different voices. He also sits alone on a chair in the middle of a classroom. Of course, he's just imagining that.

Cloudcuckoolander: All characters are one in a certain way. Erio is a space-obsessed amnesiac who believes she's an alien, Meme is an Absurdly Youthful Mother obsessed with being moe and playing with Makoto, Ryuuko is often running simulations, Tamura (Granny) believes in aliens, conspiracies, and that she's got an upcoming date with cattle mutilation, Maekawa is always acting like a Cosplay Otaku Girl, Yashiro believes she's an alien as well and always wears a spacesuit, Ashiro spends his days shooting off plastic water bottle rockets, and even Makoto himself, as much as he tries to be the Only Sane Man, he's admittedly obsessed with adolescence and his points system.
