In spite of the descriptions and (Witchblade's, in particular) advertisement images suggesting the two are very much action series, deceptively enough the titles are actually character-focused stories of family and love. The sci-fi elements are never satisfyingly explained, and the pacing would put off those looking for non-stop flashy action/boobs/lesbianism.
The averages of the two being at around the 7.5/10 mark is probably down to them attracting the wrong crowd; those not interested in the bonds of love shared by a mother & daughter and two 'sisters'. Both are highly recommended to those who value characterization above everything else.

Kurau and Witchblade are ostensibly action shows in which the action takes a back seat to the theme of family. Witchblade portrays a believeable mother and daughter relationship, while the two leads in Kurau share a bond that is neither romantic nor familial but something inbetween. And that's to say nothing of the supporting cast of both series, all of whom have their own family issues to resolve.
