Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: This was a great show! I saw every episode on Adult Swim when it was on. An intriguing plot, well designed characters, and awesome sound track all make this one of the best to come to America yet. It's true, the animation is different, but that doesn't matter! In fact, I kind of like it. It's a refreshing break to see some thing different from all of the Inu Yasha and Trigun I've been watching...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sad and Lovely
Review: When I first saw this anime on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim program block, I thought it was an old anime remastered. The style of the characters is reminiscent of Osamu Tezuka, a pioneer of anime and manga who created 'Astro Boy' (Tetsuwan Atom). Needless to say, the pretty style and the angsty storyline drew me in, hook, line and sinker!

This is definitely not a children's cartoon! I saw the most shocking moment I've ever seen in an animated film in the episode featuring Mitsuko and Masaru's mother. There is also some implied sexuality of a very...odd...sort, but it's done tastefully. Mitsuko is also a bit too angsty at times, but the soundtrack and the sort of ethereal style makes it worthwhile.
