This series was average, I think it’s an attempt at helping with seeing into closed hearts kid of series but when your using dolls I’m not sure it works so well. Story aside the characters, well mainly the dolls I thought had interesting characters. Anyway like I said this series is average, watch it if you like dolls or just watch anime (like me).

For a shounen this is a really good samurai series, the relations have quite a some depth to them and the story is well put together. It is unfortunate that it ended at such a place but as it stands it is one the best samurai series out there, in my opinion.

A shounen though a bit more focused on the relationships between the characters than the actual action although still important. There is a slight female bias but that makes for better story. Also the power progression, while still very shounen is somewhat better than some.
