Never heard of it. The art and age seem a bit too outdated for me but seeing the high ratings I may check it out. Congrats to the fans for this! Ghostony said: Just did a quick skim.. Mahou Shojo is targeted to pedophile muslim extremists that live in california |

Wow I'm actually watching ROV at the moment and enjoying it too! So I'm happy it's getting licensed I guess. |

I weep for the future. Thankfully I have taste & class. Try going for seinen, shojo and josei. You'll thank me later. |

Now, if I was actually living in the US, I would probably be buying it right now, because it's Rose of Versailles. But I am not, so... |
