Story 8/10
It's been done before. Man meets god/goddess or any other supernatural being. However, what makes this different from other similar series is the relationship and the bond these two develop and share
Art 7/10
The character's are well drawn, lovable and memorable (especially Horo). However, the drawback is the animation. The animation is mediocre.
Sound 8/10
Voice acting was good, sound track was good, etc.
Character 10/10
I'd rate it 11 If I could. Horo is one of the best character's I've ever seen. You can't help but fall in love with her character! Her personality makes her a very realistic character. She's beautiful, cunning, smart, wise, sensitive but at the same time fun, wild, playful and bossy. Her character is what made this show SUPERB. I totally envy Laurence! What a lucky guy!
Enjoyment 9/10
There is a lot of emphasis and talk on economics and merchant-talk. It was something that confused the heck out of me, really. Aside from that, it was extremely enjoyable. The 2 main characters get along so well that I couldn't help but feel extremely envious. I wished I could be in Laurence's position! Ha..ha.
Overall 9/10
Great romantic + adventurous anime. I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in these genres.
