This crime anime may seem somewhat childish at first, but eventually a true appreciation for the intricate plots both episodically and arcing emerges along with a respect for each character. There are emotional angst-y parts nicely balanced with adorable comedy and character interactions. Fun to watch alone, but even more fun to watch with another friend or two to guess "who done it" for each mystery plot ; ) For an anime with murders as the most common crime there is very little bloody violence, so good for younger and older crowds.

A very unique art style to go along with its equally unique plot idea and story flow. In order to for one to happily watch his anime, you would need to be truly interested in character development. It follows a very bland main character into a world with the most unconventional people. It's historic setting (Edo Period) being very commonly used was not overly exciting to see again, but it was well done none the less. I found it enjoyable because of how each character had depth and a back-story (even if not revealed totally or at first). The action part was low in ... quantity, but the surprise moments of violence were excellent and exciting enough for me to continue watching. = )
