Same here, I've been reading the manga for years and really look forward towards the anime. It's one of the very few entirely original and while it does use some stereotypical characters, it does it in a way that is quite unique.

Though I really don't think this series will be licensed any time soon though. While the manga is A plus material, unless you've watched and read tons of manga, anime and video games, it's likely that it won't really make much sense.

As for the anime, it's a tough call. If done right like the manga, the anime could just be as good, if not even greater. Though this is one of those series that would really benefit from an English audio, due to the amount of references and jokes.

If you like series that have almost none fan service, unexpected plot twists, an original plot and major character development and for once a main male character who isn't a pervert or typical nice guy, this is show will interest you.

Thanks. Surprised I'm put this one on my list of things to watch. Sometimes I don't mind fanservice but I think I'm getting to a point where it's making me shake my head. So it's good to see something with more substance. Wink
