I was really impressed with this anime. It had all the markings of a great success. The only problem was that it dragged for a while on the story of Natsume Maya, her brother Shin and Mitsoumi to the point of the story losing its focus (which was not supposed to be on Maya or her past but on Souichiro Nagi as we come to see in the OVAs). Another disappointing factor is that after all was said and done the anime lost too much of its scope to follow through hence it only survived one season. The manga is far better (and although some people claim it is confusing I have yet to find it confusing myself). There are some really good characters like Takayanagi Masataka and Natsume Aya that are made to seem like redundant characters (or background characters) when in fact Aya is an important character in Nagi's life. The love triangles were potentially good but looking back on it now it seems almost sad and pathetic. The anime reaches a point where it cannot decide which way to progress since the history of Maya's life was introduced too early in the anime. It would be nice if they could do a remake of this anime - not only giving it a better structure but also improving the storyline while at the same time remain true to the content of the manga itself. I gave this a 4/5 simply because I love the character design and the animation is really good, the dialogue and storyline could use some work but it does not detract from how entertaining this anime is. It is a good watch for those of you who like bad ass fighting and silly love triangles that never come to fruition. (show less)

This Anime is one of the most visually appealing Anime I have ever seen, to be perfectly honest. The art style is shiny and colourful and the animation is smooth and quick. The muscle proportions are a bit over the top in several instances, but I enjoy taking it as an exaggeration. The storyline is where I had a few issues, though. The first few episodes set up a good idea, giving the main characters, the primary issues, and really setting up a solid Anime, then the following ten episodes turned into a flashback that seemed a bit hard to follow and it seemed somewhat disjointed as these were whole new characters and the feeling ‘awesome’ was somewhat lost. I never finished the Anime due to this disjointed work, so I will admit that I am basing this off of having only watched twenty episodes. (show less)
