plot:  Due to a deep trauma at school Sakurada Jun has refused to return. He spends his time in his room, surfing the web and ordering anything that takes his fancy, only to return the items just before payment is due. One day, he finds a web site that tells him to put his order in a drawer of his desk. He does so thinking it to be a joke, only to find that the letter disappears and a strange package arrives soon afterwards. It contains an exquisite doll, that, when wound, comes to life. She treats him as a servant of little worth, but over time helps him come to grips with his fears and in the life-or-death fights that soon follow her arrival.

my review: I didn’t expect myself to like Rozen Maiden but there was some serious interest in it that i could not ignore; i pretty much adored all of the characters who came on screen besides sousuiseki, I would reconmend it to anyone with high hopes of them getting into it too.

  1. Would watch it when I finish 2 other anime :)


  2. I’ve actually watched Rozen Maiden before and I actually liked it as well.
    The anime developed each doll’s personality quite well in my opinion - each doll had depth to it


  3. Yeah, I saw the first series and it was pretty good. ^_^ The dolls did have some depth, like plutochan said. But so do some of the human characters, like Jun and maybe his older sis.
