Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Kouyama Mitsuki was devastated when she was diagnosed with a malignant tumor of the throat. She had made a promise to the boy she loves that she would one day become a singer, but her illness made singing impossible. To make matters even worse, two angels of death, Takuto and Meroko, appeared to Mitsuki and informed her that she only had one year left to live. This news provides an even greater motivation for Mitsuki to fulfill her dreams, and with a little bit of divine intervention, she begins her quest to become a professional singer so she can be reunited with Eichi before time runs out.

This is my first review, so i figured i would have to review my favourite anime. Full moon wo Sagashite is about a girl named Mitsuki who aspires to become a singer, though there is a twist - she has been diagnosed with a tumor in her vocal cords, which not only restrict her singing capabilities, but also cause an immediate threat to her life. She is visited by Shinigami who tell her that she has 1 year left to live.

Full Moon wo Sagashite was one of those animes I started on a whim. I had already read the manga, and decided to give the anime a try to see how much I liked it in comparison. To my surprise, I <i>loved</i> it, possibly even more than the manga version. The changes it makes from the manga were actually ones I (for the most part) preferred.
