I have not seen it. Do you watch your anime on crunchyroll? The only anime I have watched is Rosario + Vampire, kind of old but it is awesome!

I watched the first episode and it is pretty good. Just watching this episode has made me hungry to start binge watching anime now lol. Did you get inspiration for your CF name from this anime?

I've only watched the movie, which condensed the 39 episode anime down to roughly 1-2 hours, so it makes less sense. And I've read the manga, which the anime expands on in terms of a particular arc that was only a brief chapter in the manga.

It's definitely an interesting look at gender roles, not to mention the idea of whether a woman truly needs a man to save her and the nature of relationships. There's strong female love that I believe the author intended to be romantic in nature (since he did a more recent series that features yuri/female romantic love and addressed it in a different way relative to societal norms and isolation) not to mention Gnostic themes people have alleged, though I'm not sure if the author intended that part

I didn't get my inspiration from the anime. My favorite color is blue and my favorite flower is roses. I love the anime though.

Great insight you have into the anime. I really love it.
