Pete Zaitcev has a great post on Aoi Sakuraba with lots of screenshots. It reminds me of how charming that character is and how much I enjoyed watching her. He also talks about some of the major shortcomings of the series.
I’m sort of avoiding watching it again. I remember the series fondly, but it was one of the first anime I’d ever watched. The show is full of cliche’s and predictable situations, but since I was new to anime it all seemed fresh and new to me. I have a feeling that if I were to go back and re-watch the story it would look quite different.

What is this silly word, why did some people get so irritated by it, and why did it fall out of use?
The Gradient of Plot Holes
