Please forgive any spelling errors in the below writing. \^_^/

First let me clarify my ratings: I usually try to refrain from giving 10s, I usually only select 9s if it is incredibly outstanding because all comics can always improve.

Overview:

Chikyuu Misaki is a cute yet thrilling comic. The characters are loveable, and the story isn't so intense that you have trouble feeling calm while reading it. But it isn't too calm that you feel inclined to fall asleep while reading at it. The plot is very creative and it's very hard to predict its plot twists. Nothing gets old, and it keeps itself going very smoothly ... and it intertwines themes very well.

One thing I would like to note is that the ending was a happy ending, but it seemed like a realistic ending at the same time. So you wont fin yourself saying "gee, that's cute and all, but not really realistic so Im not satisfied"

In my opinion the story kept itself very fresh.

Plot:

The plot intertwines from beginning to end, most everything is explained, but in a natural way to where you don't find anything very akward or obvious, but you are still kept at the edge of your seat. There were a couple things that weren't explained, and were kind of fuzzy, but they weren't huge. The plot is very creative and you are left with a sense of justice, as well as reallness.

Art:

The art is very unique, and is well developed. It is sort of a more "childish" type of art, BUT, it keeps realistic features in check. It might be perhaps an aquiered taste in art, but I believe it is refreshing to see something unique, and not once did I find myself thinking "oh, another uninique artstyle. what is this gonna be another shoujo thing again?" So I didn't have any pre-conceived notions of what the story might be like.

Characters:

The character's personalitys are engaging and you find yourself even identifying with some "bad guys" (again, which makes the story more engaging and realistic) One thing that I found interesting was that the characters has just ENOUGH background, and not a huge aweful past/backstory, but yet there were still engaging things to learn about them along the way, and the author really distributed those things throughout the story well, and very smoothly.

Enjoyment:

This will always be relative, and subjective..

As for fanservice and fun extras: not much. Fanservice is not really there. There are things that you could consider fanservice, but they aren't very "candied up". Its cute, but also believable. Most of it is just Neo, (one of the main characters) who is kid like. (very cute by the way.) The rest of the fanservice is girls with low cut shirts and such, which I've personally gotten used to, but I found everything believable. There's also some pages between chapters that were a bit much. ( being on the objective, and more conservative side of things.)

Overall:

It's unnique, and I personally think it's worth reading. (this is coming from a female, by the way.)

This was a very enjoyable manga. It had a very well thought out plot and characters. Although it seemed that the main character and rival had something for each other (unfortunatly, I don't know why some anime's do that, but it's kind of funny, since they're both guys, still nothing happens btw) it was still a very good manga. The action and circumstances that the main character, Daisuke finds himself in are quite tricky and it was wonderful to watch him figure things out. The action was wonderful too, they had different realms and all sorts of wonderful fantastic things. It was very wonderful, but ... unfortunatly they had to end it in the middle of a very important end battle. I was so dissapointed. ALso, when I learned that there was an anime, I sadly found out that it was so different from the manga, it was almost as if it wasn't the same story (almost). they added characters, jumbled things up, and also, ending things in the middle. Maybe they ran out of money, but hopefully they'll fix things? the words that my friends said were "what the crap." same goes here.

still, if you want to read the manga and get cut off at the best part, go ahead. Maybe it's because they haven't translated it in english yet and maybe in japan they DO have the ending? hopefully. well, I hope you like it as I did,(not the unfortunate end though)

This is a very good anime, I enjoyed it very well. Don't be fooled, at first I thought there was no real plot, but it was an extremily well thought out plot, as it turns out. The anime is a little dark, and ciel's butler seems very sinister, so it kind of felt like there was a thing between ciel and his butler, although nothing happened. So if you don't like that kind of stuff, then don't watch it. Very enjoyable characters, but the end was kind of depressing. Every character had a background that the show elaborated on, but not too much that it ... went away from the original story. I'd say though if you get depressed easily, don't watch it, at least not to the very end. I hope you'll like it as much as I did. ^^

This was a very inspiring anime, even though it goes kindof slow in the begining, it covers all the bases. School life, love, dreams, hopes. Theres not much more to say. Even though it does go slow, (and I warn you, it does go SLOW) it was very inspiring. warm and heartfelt, from studio ghibli, another masterpeice.

(season 1) This anime, pumpkin scissors is about military section 3, pumpkin scissors helping people after the war. I have to say, even I was skeptical at first and had a hard time picking up the manga, or the anime to watch or read it. But once I got started, I couldn't stop. It has a subpurb plotline, and the characters are VERY believable, it's almost like you mourn for them when something bad happens. It's very realalisting even besides the fact that they have a litle bit of fantasy genre in there. The fantasy genre was so beutifully mixed into the reality that it ... was hard to tell witch was witch. Of course if your looking for something outright fantasy, this wouldn't be for you. But if you have a compassionate heart, I'm sure the main character, Randel Oland, will take a place in your heart, and the story will inspire you to do something in your life. Very touching. The story is about cleaning up the war, but I only hoped it wouldn't be dreadfully sad. (like one of those anime you can only watch an episode at a time) but it wasn't. It's one that has a great balance, and kudos to the creator, Ryoutarou Iwanaga. Even though the second character Alice L Malvin looks like your typical shounen girl character, Iwanaga defies the odds, and makes her just as unique as you and me. In fact, Iwanaga makes ALL the characters unique. (hm, well machs is kind of lacking, but still) I hope they come out with a second season too. It's one of those shows that you can ABSOLUTLY NOT wait for the next season to come out, and if you could, make it come out faster; or rather, right now. ^^ I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.

I liked this manga especially, actually it's the best manga I've ever read. It's very hard to read a whole bunch at a time though, the story plot is intense, dealing with morals, and of course, love. Though if your looking for a cute story like a naruto/sakura childish crush manga sor of thing, this isn't for you. great story. I highly recomend it. You can never tell whats going to happen next, but even though the story is complex, the writer (fuyumi) puts it in an easy sequence and format thats very easy to understand; and very friendly. I hope you will love it ... as much as I did.

(p.s: this is a rare manga, meaning its very hard to find another story plot like this out there.)

It isn't too extremily painful to watch, but I found the plot very complicated, and what worsened this is the story went very fast. I found myself rewatching the eppisodes to understand what was going on. Furthermore, it seems like they tried to make the characters look deep (having a complicated past that not anyone could realate to. But it's actually better if you can relate to it at least A LITTLE bit.) but they weren't.They made the characters overly deep, witch reversed the whole process, making them seem childish. I didn't get very far because of this. If you're looking for something more intense, ... deeper,or easier to understand, I would soon rather pick pokemon.

I am totally changing this review. I cna't believe what I said about the story!

first of all, I LOVED this anime. The story was very simple, but in the ending there were a couple plot twists that made the story almost perfect. There were also plot twists in the begining, and hints leading up to the end, witch kept you watching. The story leads beutifully to the conclusion also.

The characters were interesting, except for the main characters. I found the main characters original, and some of the bad guys also original, but it seemed each character added flair to the story in his/her own way.

The ... action:

the action was just awesome. each character had a unique weapon/ability/partner. there was really no NOT unique weapon, of course expect for soul, maka's death skyth.

heres just a side not, the show made maka and soul look like a couple from the begining, but nothing ever happened. that was a bit dissapointing.

unfortunatly the end was a little undesirable, only for me. I would like good endings for EVERY character. Also, may I add, the ending was WAY too short, and didn't elaborate on what most of the characters did/what happened to them or the DWMA, and Death.

Me having a critical eye even for shows I like may mean that I pretty much will bash this show, on the basis that I REALLY didn't like it. I say I couldn't get so far. The only part I liked was the fact that the characters were decent loooking. Everytime the main character got into a big battle, his clothes would get ripped of. WOW. I guess thats the only reason I couldn't get very far. The fact that the story is set in the knight times is a bit odd, witch isn't my personal preference; and the fact the the story was ... very complicated and not easily understood made me lazy and I just felt it took to much effort to read without having a good reward. The only real cool part was that the main charcter would transfer from a monster type thing, to a sweet kid; witch was the only "candy" in the story. The rest was fantasy, gore, violence, and sex. (or, other wise I.E sexual themes and content :P)

This manga wasn't too great. Aside from the fact that they included disney characters in the plot, the story seems to be fine- until the only character's motive is to be a "hero" and then it's just the classic - "hero beats bad guy and saves the day" story. Everything was classic - including the monsters and villians - who have no motive, except the general "rule the world" motive (and what not.) - it wasn't anything too special.
