Introduction: I enjoyed, and thought that it was creative to have a story centered around a search for a sibling. All three main characters were searching for something more in there lives and it is beautiful how it all plays out.
Story: Three orphans looking for more belonging and acceptance in life have a faithful meeting. Two girls and a boy, one girls a stranger while the other is Maiku's ( said Mike in English) sister. the fun in this anime for me was trying to figure out which girl was his sister and see all the misunderstandings , funny, silly, and heart warming interactions between
...
the three main characters. I thought the anime did a great job on how they showed the mixed emotions the three had for each other and how it is all resolved is heart warming. A romance, and slice of life. It has it flaws but is a good gem of a story that can be overlooked. Funimation has the OVA 13th episode I recommend watching it to get a more full understanding of the anime.
Art: This anime did come out in 2003 so it has a older type art style to it. I thought it was good overall. To newer anime, and bigger named anime it is not nearly as good. The facial expressions were good and showed the emotions of this unique anime.
Sound: The opening "Second Flight" is very nice. It matched up pretty well to the episodes and the mood. The ending song is good not as good as the opening. Nothing to amazing that stood out with the background or original sound tract (OST) in the episodes.
Character: Maiku (Mike), Miina, and Karen the three main characters. The rest are supporting characters to these three and try to help out or get in the way depending on how you look at it. Mike is a very independent, smart, and mature young man. Living on his own as a computer programmer that he learned. Mike has mixed emotions about the two girls, but is interested and caring about them. One is very likely his sister so he tries not to get to close. Miina is a feisty red head, has some past hardships that hurt her, can be out spoken from time to time. She has a caring heart, but not that great a expressing her emotions. Karen is extremely shy, and very polite. Just like Miina, Karen also has a caring heart and has a hard time expressing her emotions. The three balance each other out. It is fun to see the friendship and love they form.
Enjoyment: I felt like I got to know, and care about the three main characters. There actions make sense and are explained very well which I liked. The silliness, misunderstanding, and emotional issues were not over the top but made for a very enjoyable story. All in all it was fun watching all the episodes.
Overall: Good story telling, Good Characters, and an interesting mystery who is Mike's sister and who is not made it fun, and exciting. The anime has some flaws in the story, art, sound, and characters but not enough to really make it that bad.
