Honey and Clover *fanfare*
That lazy loafer Mangafanatic finally got off her lazy butt and did something for a change! It's about time, too! Anyways, here's the good-for-nothing's Honey and Clover review.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.
Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.
But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Well, 24 episodes, actually. There are two episodes which are going to be released on the Japanese DVDs to bring the total to 26, but these episodes are just filler stories.

Takemoto was my favorite~ 
And it seems you watched a more explicit version than I did, language-wise. ^^; But I'm wondering why you didn't put the Buddhist? reference for religion when Hagu was kneeling in front of a picture of Shuuji.
Going off topic, it highly amused and tortured me at the same time when the two crossdressing men's names were Mario and Luigi.

I'm sure the language would have varied by fansubber, so I may have.
I took Hagu's kneeling before Shuuji's picture as an extreme joke, but if you feel I should include it-- I will.Going off topic, it highly amused and tortured me at the same time when the two crossdressing men's names were Mario and Luigi.
Oh, I know. *twitch* I had to wash my mind out with soap after any of their scenes. :lol;

Oooo....I just may have to check this one out. ^^ At first I was a little iffy upon seeing the huge sexual content blob, but most of it seems to be teasing and not taken to a serious level. Quite nice since these kids are all around the age most animes would stick LOTS of sex stuff in.
Either way, awesome review! ^^ Looks like I got a new anime to add to my list. XD

Yeah, as ANYONE will tell you, I'm painfully detailed in my reviews. I mention everything that my most sensative friends might be offended by. 90% of the stuff in the sexual content section of the review didn't even bother me. Honestly, editting the shower part, I would probably watch this with my family, and that's a big deal for me.

Thanks! And you simply must see it. It's one incredible series.
