Review
I saw this anime recently, and I must say the story was alright, but it's kind of boring if the main character always wins, and you know who will win as soon as fight starts.
The art was alright, CLAMP is well-known, and has "ok" art in my opinion. It's not the best out there, but not bad. Also, this show is NOT widescreen, so that kind of disappointed me a little, but that doesn't really have much to do with art.
The sound was bad. To back that up, try listening to Misaki-chan's (japanese) voice for 26 episodes. Trust me, you will get annoyed VERY soon, but even with that, the show is watchable, and has nice background music and sound effects during fights, really gets you in the mood.
Characters are alright, a bit too average and expected, but passable. Like the main character, Misaki-chan is kind of WEIRD because she's too nice to everyone and makes weird sex-like noises randomly throughout the show whenever she's surprised or something, kind of confusing.
Enjoyment ... what's that supposed to mean? I watched the show because I was bored, but I guess it kind of made me curious about what kind of Angels will show up in the next fight, so I was, in a way, looking forward to the next episode, plus the added romance between characters gave the plot some twists and turns, good pairing, so hopefully you won't be disappointed in that aspect.
I generally recommend this show for someone to watch on a side to other shows and probably not give it as much priority, but in the end it's up to you.
