I first found out about this show by watching a YouTube video. Then I watched the opening. I was a bit reluctant to watch it at first, but I am extremely glad I did. I watched the whole series except for the OVA on YouTube. Boy, did I love it! It was a little of everything: action, humor, romance, tragedy, and everything in-between. My only beef is that it needs more. More episodes. There's just so much unsaid. But anyway, I usually don't cry about TV shows, but I shed a few for the ending. Overall, this is a masterpiece of an anime, and a good title to add to your collection. Jun Maeda (you may recognize this name from: Clannad, Air, Canon?) did a wonderful job on this and I can't wait for more!
