It is one of the biggest surprises I've had all year but I love this series despite its sugary character design, and cannot wait to see what happens next. Go to Full Review

07/28/2022 This show was amazing! I nearly turned it off because I thought it was some boring kid's show but man was I wrong! One of my favorite animes of all time. However, that ends with season 1. The following seasons don't have English dubs and I'm not one of those losers who thinks watching subs is superior due to my own delusional beliefs and I don't really enjoy turning my video media into an audible book. So I won't be able to go any further. But if u want an awesome anime to watch, check out When They Cry Season 1. If u don't care about sub titles then I would also check out seasons 2 and 3. Rena is my favorite character. Show is a trip! See more Read all reviews
