Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Um Anjo Caiu do Céu (“An Angel Fell From Heaven”) is a Brazilian telenovela created by author Antônio Calmon and broadcast by Rede Globo in its 7PM timeslot from January 22nd, 2001 to August 25th, 2001. The series follows João Medeiros (Tarcísio Meira), a renowned photographer who spends most of his time traveling the world doing his job, paying next to no attention to the Big, Screwed-Up Family he left back home in Rio de Janeiro.After taking a picture of a Nazi leader in hiding, João suffers an attack from Nazi agents, but is rescued from certain death by the cherub Raphael (Caio Blat), who gives him six more months of life in order to rekindle his bonds with his family and resolve their issues. João's ex-wife Naná (Renata Sorrah) has married a different man, the shady Tarso (José Wilker), but still seems to harbor feelings for her old flame; their eldest daughter Duda (Patrícia Pillar) is in a constant state of anguish due to the ten-year disappearance of her son Kiko (Jonatas Faro), while her sister Virgínia (Deborah Evelyn) refuses to acknowledge João as her father due to him not being there for her when she had to amputate her leg in an accident many years ago. And then there's Cuca (Débora Falabella), an illegitimate daughter of João's, conceived after a one-night stand with Naná's younger sister Laila (Christiane Torloni). After years of being pressured into a modeling career by her mother, Cuca is kicked out of home when her true parentage comes to light, and runs away to São Paulo. Now aware of all of this, João decides to come back to Rio and set his family straight, joined by Raphael, now acting as his Guardian Entity and assistant. As he heads into the world of the mortals, Raphael discovers all the gamut of emotions humans can experience, in particular love, as he develops a crush on Cuca—on the other hand, he finds out he's gradually losing his powers, and must choose between remaining as a mortal or going back to Heaven as an angel.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The series can be legally streamed on the Globoplay website here.

Animated Credits Opening: As seen here (with the opening theme being provided by Pato Fu, no less!). In fact, the animated version of Raphael features pretty prominently in the marketing for the series, appearing in the first few teaser trailers as well as the CD cover for the series' Portuguese-language soundtrack compilation◊, both via means of the Roger Rabbit Effect.

All Love Is Unrequited: Raphael falls hard and fast for Cuca upon first laying eyes on her, but she doesn't seem to return his affections most of the time and eventually falls in love with ace pilot Breno, much to Raphael's dismay.

Angelic Transformation: Seems to be a common occurrence. Towards the latter half of the series, Raphael spends a few episodes Brought Down to Normal before becoming an angel again for good, and João also becomes an angel officially.
