Kaitou Saint Tail

If you're looking for a good cops and robbers / cat and mouse anime like Lupin the 3rd, keep looking - because even though this series is about a thief and a detective trying to catch her, the robberies aren't really what you will watch out for. In fact, I would describe Saint Tail as a love story or romance anime extended over 43 episodes. The thefts are merely a backdrop to the developing romance between Meimi Haneoka and Asuka Jr.

Meimi, of course, is Saint Tail and the young detective trying to catch her is her classmate Asuka Jr. You'll have to suspend your disbelief with this one as one impossibility after another keep Saint Tail out of the cops' grasp. And another thing - it's not as if she actually hurt anybody. Who will persecute someone who steals somebody's running shoes and return them to the original owner, anyway?

But as I said, you won't really dwell that much on the robberies. Like me, you'll probably get hooked on Meimi and Asuka Jr. and waiting for the moment that Asuka Jr. finally catches Saint Tail. Lighthearted and cute, this anime is definitely one of my favorite classics. read more

Well... What can I say? This anime is my most recent obsession... Basically, I love it! It was so cute! I loved Asuka and Meimi's relationship....! It was so cute........ This really reminded me of Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne though. They both are Kaitos, or theives. They both pray to god! They both have cute couples! They both know someone who is trying to catch them! So similar....wow! Anyway, i love this anime! I think anyone who watches it will too! This anime will steal your heart! tee hee....
