Summary: This is good, but it still lacks something...
Review: Although parts of the plot are old news, on the whole it is rather original. But the characters are sterotypes, and not very good ones. Most of them are fairly boring, though beautiful to look at. Shino the dancer in particular is gorgeous, but comes across is rather petty. Imari the swordswoman is the only one of the Queen Candidates that we see more than once or twice, but her personality is sarcastic and impatient--hardly makes her sympathetic material. Seika the fortuneteller manages to be mystical, but that means that her own personality is hidden by her prophecies. Tadami is the child inventor, but has no personality of her own. Her best friend is nothing special either--just an energetic martial artist. And Himiko herself is just as under-developed personality-wise as the candidates. Her boyfriend gets so little to do that he might as well not even be there.

The other thing I had a beef with was the constant reference to the "Bokka", which appears to be their god. But from what I have seen, this god is a watcher, not a doer. There doesn't seem to be much of a point to these references.

The story writers could have done more with this. At least they could have made the characters into likable people.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Fantasy of a imagination.
Review: Late me say something first I really like the outfits. Well if you like the kind of thing. Like I, I look at the drawing and the imagination of the show. This was very good. If your wondering why I gave it a four is because it doesn't have to much fight scenes, but it has great plots and imagination. It has drama, romance, action, it's funny too. It has a cute little bug or something. The theme song is very good I loved it and still do. But I totally think you should get this it will blow your mind. One more thing the ending song bits. Well that's it.

Review: Late me say something first this is a very good design of outfits. If you care for that sort of thing. This item has 4 episodes but it will make you want more. The theme song kicks... Can't say the same about the ending, but it's funny, fantasy, drama, action, and alittle bit of confusstion. Well there you go. Oh wait I forgot that this is sort of easy to understand at some point. I rate this a four cause they didn't tell me it had 4 freaken episodes. How wrong is that. well check this out and the others. I highly ask you to check this out.

Review: Well I have to say I didn't think this would be all good but I was so wrong. The voices are great and the drawings and music is so good. You should see this this only has 4 episodes, but they are great and it's so funny. I know you will love it the charaters are so beauiful and the good guys are so cute. I haven't seen them all yet, but I will. If your a ANIME FAN a true one, you will get this. Plus one more thing The designs are great, and if you like other world Animanation cartoons you will love this. A MUST BUY. I didn'y know I did it more than once. I thought it just didn't take untill I finished reading how long it would take to come up here. My bad.
Later anime fans.
