I really like this anime. The manga seems to cut off at a certain point, because i can’t find any more of it- it really sucks. The anime OP makes me feel like someone’s taking a cheese grater to my ears. The ending is okayish. The anime itself, the storyline, animation, it’s all very well done. The soundtrack itself is what made me start watching. It’s literally the best soundtrack of any anime I’ve watched (which is way more than is healthy). But yeah, it’s on my iPod…
Watch the show. DO it.

Awwh, c’mon, Hung! Be nice. This series is adorable, if not terribly unique. Perhaps I’m just not that jaded yet (oh, no, wait… yeah, I am) but I adore the Japanese voice cast, and can’t help but appreciate the fact that, while the series may be shoujo, it’s got some pretty decent ass-kicking (of puppies).

Plus, it doesn’t take Michiru EIGHT BILLION EPISODES to get away from her obnoxious aunt and uncle. That’s points for her right there.

Bonus for the distinct lack of a chipmunk voice for her Japanese voice actress.

Oooh! I personally really like this anime ^^. Yea, the begining was kinda bleh, but it all works out. =3

OMG i love the OP! I don’t see how people don’t like it.. the ED was pretty good, too. >.

I agree about the opening and ending. It just plain sucked. Good thing I had nothing better to do and watched it. I watched the second episode and it’s a bit promising. I’m just hoping for some zombie-kicking action. So far, they’ve been showing that in the first and second episode.

Don’t worry, hashihime, you’re not the only one. I really like it too.

As for the series itself, I’m not sure what to think. So far it’s just Michiru being pushed around by the guys; something that Rozen Maiden already covered, but with dolls.

I’m sure the cliffhanger will change things in the storyline, but I doubt it’ll really change how the other characters act, that is, unless they want her business at Z-Loan.

Even though this series is classified as shounen on ANN, I’d still say it’s shoujo. Or more like a shounen-wannabe shoujo. Seriously, more than half the series focuses on dorama and relationships. I didn’t get that far in the manga but I saw no power-up arcs, big evil bosses/enemies, and etc. So yeah, I still say this is shoujo but for all I care you can go ahead and say that I can’t classify things.

P.S: There isn’t that much of a plot either. Or for two volumes and two chapters there isn’t.

Watch ep2 before you decide. Stuff happens. And Kuwashima Houko gets even better as Michiru. But I’m the only person in the world who thinks the OP is excellent, so your mileage may vary.

@Kabitzin: Do you know how hard it is to get a loan when you're dead!? IT'S HARD! With this in mind, a 9.68% APR is something that I think we can all appreciate.

9.68 APR isn’t that good. It’s not really much better than a credit card. However, I was surprised by the reasonable humor (especially ring-spotting) and how Michiru was not as annoying as I thought she’d be.

It’s hard to tell how this series will go from the first episode, but I saw enough to want to see another episode.

okish anime, giving it a few more episodes before I decide on my final verdict
