Characters are great, (even though some aren't understandable for normal human being like me, aka Black-Star), just don't expect development on their relationships with one another. Those relationships are sealed from the start. The story moves on, but their interactions remain the absolute same from chapter 20 onwards.
Just don't watch last episode and go read the manga instead. Last episode + death vs kishin battle are the worst thing done on this anime. Enjoy the ride (just don't keep the conclusion in sight or you will be disappointed).
It pisses me off a lot of japanese anime that people are not human beings with drives and desires and confusion and stuff, they are just... 9 yo forever. Tell me which one of you will live together with another person, have the trust to put your life in his/her hands and when that person falls to the deepest pit of his/her mind, you just give a handshake to them... ??? Well... talking about frozen guts on people... (just don't pay attention to the last paragraph, it wanted me to keep writing).
