Shameless advertising:
I have a Beauty White Juri head for sale. I really don't belive in sob stories with dolls for sale, but I'll just say I really wish I didn't have to sell her, as my sister has fallen in love with her.
Link goes to DoA:
Speaking of my sister...I think I've just found the holy grail of anime for her.
Shoujo ai overtones? Check.
Catholic Imagery? Check and Double check.
All female cast? Check.
European fetishism? Check.
Borderline loli heroine? Check.
I thought Maria-sama ga Miteru was okay, it was reccomended as the pinnacle of modern shoujo ai anime. (it's REALLY popular...) The production values are...interesting....to say the least (fear the rotating CG crosses! Run in terror at the inability to draw necks! Thrill as the character art never matches the backgrounds in style!) and my sense of disbelief was shot out the window at about, oh, 2 minutes into the show (not that the show is trying to hide that these are idealized version of high school girls) But, hey, it's cute. It's not a thinking anime, it's a fun brain candy anime. <3
