I’m just gonna say, like everyone else, legs are WAY too long. I really like the artwork, but I don’t understand why some people say it sucks. Ok, maybe the legs but ONLY the legs. They shoulda done the Kei’s bday thing at the villa but no, they skipped it…

I’m glad this show is not so shoujo-ly overdone, like with Vampire Knight. Although I haven’t read the manga, the first episode of this show didn’t leave a bad impression, so thumbs up.

boatswain> hehe where have you been?

biankita> its hard to tell if its screwed up. also i heard gonzo isn’t doing the story line just the animation so it shouldn’t be too bad.

already looking forward to it (subs) and still crossing my fingers that it’s not screwed - thanks for the review… made me slightly relieved that gonzo didn’t screw it up THAT much. but for some reason… and anime like this made me wish it was done by BONES instead

you’re right about the plot thing… i hope they will also skip some parts and somehow volumes 6 onwards of the manga would be included in the series.

Yeah, it seemed odd right away to cast Gotouza-sama here. But I think I understand what the intention is: the director wants to emphasize the class difference between Hikari and the other S.A.s.

I’d like to see a head-to-head competition between Kei and Naoki of Itazura na Kiss. Of course Kei can use his geass. And Naoki will just turn into a bloody mess. Though if Kotonoha finds out, Kei might be in trouble. But he’s got Horo on his side, so maybe he’ll be ok.

>>> I’d rather hear her go whole hog and do someone hard and evil

Bell Zephyr in Night Wizard. Can’t get any more evil than that.

So the question is, have they ruined it? I guess not yet at least…

For the theme song you should hold an Otaku composition contest

[...] Hinano didn’t like the expanded legs too much, while Garten is not too crazy by the character design too. However, I am fine with it and feels that it brings a bit of the shoujo flair that I enjoy so much. It might be strange but I always like such a character design with enlarged legs and slim bodies. It’s not done too excessively, so I am generally fine with it. The animations i generally crisp for a shoujo-orientated series, and the characters are well transformed from the manga to the anime.
