I have a d.c. da capo wallpaper on my computer, but I too had trouble finding info on it.
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.

I'm about halfway through it, but it's basically a typical harem anime (meaning one guy and a lot of girls that are potential love interests) at a high school. It doesn't really have a plot, aside from developing each character and spending a little time with each of them. If it did have a plot, it could be about a guy and his step-sister (who secretly loves the brother), and his distant cousin (who had a close relationship with him, and his also in love with him) returns and situations occur. The guy also has the ability to see other people's dreams when he's asleep, but this is rarely touched on. It's got some great characters, some very surreal and calming substories, and some pretty funny moments. Unfortunately it's based on a hentai dating sim and has a few scenes where it tricks you into thinking something will happen or just happened through some clever innuendos (though no nudity). Check out the first episode (as it has the most innuendos), and if you can handle it you should be fine.
