No. But I would have liked some more actual events over the course of the whole show. I cannot even remember anything other than the portion at the beach that they "did". Everything else was just pointlessly messing around, telling each other "I love you", "I dont love you" and so on. (fake-edit: Oh, there also was the festival, yeah)
I just finished watching The World God Only Knows, and while this show has nothing in common thematically, I would have liked if Ano Natsu had more "action" events spread out over these 12 episodes like TWGOK did. By that I mean specific situations where something non-love related happens and we see the characters overcome this situation, thus resulting in character-development and futher bonding with each other. With 12 episodes, you could have had at least three proper, fleshed-out events (And to give an example: One event could have been Rinon going missing, or Remon getting an emergency mission where the others help without knowing about the MiB, or using Ichikaīs superios alien-technology to save a school festival from being ruined. And so on. Lots of options).
Doing this, the alien stuff would have been better established, without interfering too much with the Ichika-Kaito relationship. And the ending wouldnīt have been such a stark contrast to all of the rest. I mean, to be fair, maybe thatīs what the producers went for: Going out with a bang. Thatīs their choice then, and it seems it wasnīt a bad one since you all liked it. I didnīt. Simple as that.
