add recBoth Petit Cossette and the Soultaker are directed and mostly thought up by Akiyuki Shinbo, and it shows. Shinbo's style is thickly laid over both, with tons of extreme imagery and symbolism featuring unique and complex scenes that suspend the viewer's belief and leave them on the edge of their seat.
The storyline in Petit Cossette is very similar to the Soultaker as well, almost as it were a miniaturized version of the story, but with enough differences in it's gothic style to keep it fresh and entertaining.
