Mahoromatic

A real emotional rollercoaster anime this one is. What pulled me in straight away is that the main character knew she had 300 or so days to live and shes not even human!! From a battle maiden to a house maid, well you gotta wanna see what happens

It is a comedy and yes its funny how mahoro behaves as she tries to maintain a working reletionship with her boss (a 14 year old sexually curious kid) but obviously they are much much more. She pulls you in with her bright nature yet there is an underlying dark side to her from her war torn past that she is desperate to keep her young innocent boss from knowing. After each fun filled episode, the days remaining in her "operating time" is shown and it really made me sad... this i believe sets this anime apart as this is such a rollercoaster of emotions. You can be laughing in one episode and cry in the next.

Don't expect to see any top class fighting scenes but there are some scattered around and expect a weirdish ending.... can't really say i expected it. The characters are cute and each has their unqiue personal traits that makes this comedy one of the funnier ones i've seen. (wanna see what i've seen... check out my list then lol)

For those of you who like chrono crusuade you'd definately would like this one as the story line is similar yet very different. Enjoy :D read more

Story: The story was good, but nothing special. The typical story about a boy who starts to live with a girl for some reason. Later there is some action to though. As usual for shounen romance it's stupid but fun. And moe!
I had some problems with figuring out which team was which, since there was no real explanation. First I thought there was Vesper, Saint and the aliens. Later I realized though that Saint was the name of the aliens.
Also, in the end the producers had too much time to fill out so there was a little too much irrelevant, unfunny stalling, but nothing to serious.

Art: The art was good, Mahoro looks really cute and I have nothing to complain about other than that Slash looks strange when he talks, but I didn't expect anything else, he is a panther after all!

Sound: I liked both the op and ed, and only skipped them once. The voice actors did a good job, nothing to complain about here.

Character: I liked all the characters, except the stupid and "sexy" teacher, I really hate her, If they would have skipped her the show would have been perfect. Every time she appeared I got the urge to strangle her. Luckily, for once the show contained someone who knows that the only way to handle those persons is with violence. So Mahoro mostly was able to shut the bitch up. YAY!
Other than the teacher everyone was likable, Mahoro was super-cute and Suguru was both intelligent and not too shy, rare traits for shounen-romance leads. The side characters stayed in their roles as side characters. Almost everything was good.

Enjoyment: As long as the teacher was quiet I really enjoyed the show. I enjoyed when the Mahoro made the teacher suffer though, but sadly Suguru was a wimp and told Mahoro not to kill her. Mahoro is cute even when she talks about killing someone, so remember to really enjoy her.

Overall: Everything except the teacher was good, even with her you should easily be able to enjoy the show. Also, there was a lot ecchi in it, so enjoy it alone........ :P read more
