Story:Watch the anime THEN read the manga. the anime is like that Manga, however it's a pale imatation to it. much like a producer decided that they needed to hit the fast foward button in seveal spots. Leaving out alot of character developmetn for both major and minor characters.

On to the actually story, it was amazing. When I first found it I though "hruf" good thing I picked it up and checked it out! First I was under the impression kyoko was WORSE the the generic follow the guy you love type without question steroe type whcih several mangas fall into. Just as you get pissed, so does she. Everything snaps and the story is propeled into action. her personality does a 180, along with her appearnce. She joins show buissness and defects the expected normal but NOT sucsseding.

Animation: There's not very much animation to go with for this story but it gets the job done and cares the mode across.

Sound: good back ground music and nice voice acting. I was impressed by Kyoko's lack of a sterotypical high pitch cutesy japanese voice but a much more down to earth, mature-ish female voice.

Characters: Epic win. The lead Kyoko is both way out there with crazy thoughts of revenge and down to earth. A large portion of the joy of watching is what will Kyoko due next? Then there's the two opposing lead male roles whcih have an exceleint excuse for being otherworldly bueatiful (Their in show buis) have greta personalities which clash, and bounce and force kyoko's personalty even better. a wonderful cast. All characters have human vices

Overall: this is a must watch weither your a huge shojo fan or not. Due be warned, the manga is WAY better and doesn't leave things hanging the way that the anime does.
