Oldschool Excelence

Definitely a timeless classic here, and should be a must watch for all fans of anime. Comedy, check, and in spades. Action, a fair amount, not an action show, but you just gotta cheer for the characters when the action happens. Romance? Done wonderfully, you can't really fault a well done romantic triangle. The supernatural aspect of it only adds spice to it.

Story: As stated before the story is a wonderfully done romantic triangle, the characters share their ups and downs, you will cheer for your favorite girl (Always been a Madoka man myself). And you will find yourself irritated at the other. 5 stars

Dialog: Ahhh, what can be said about the indecisive Kyouske, the classic tsundere Madoka, and the sweet and innocent Hikaru. Probably a lot but you can't deny that the dialog fits the bill spectacularly. Bonus points goes to the release of this, a lot of the old school anime, you try to watch and it was given a horrible dub, as these were the days of english VA's that didn't care... not so here, Animego released it Subtitle only. 5 stars

Animation: Okay I'm not gonna lie, this is old school stuff from the late eighties, is it dated, sure, but who care, its set in the eighties and the animation, character design , costumes, all smack of that terrible blight on fashion that was the 1908's and you know.... it works brilliantly for the series, I don't think I could see it any other way. 5 stars

Entertainment: I'm gushing I know, this is one of my all time fav's, and definitely one of the few shows that every now and then, I just say... you know what, forget you real world, I'm watchin KOR. And at 48 TV episodes, 8 OVA's and 2 movies, thats a weekend or more worth of entertainment all wrapped up neatly. 5 stars
