I bought the first to volumes of the manga after seeing an article on the anime in Newtype. I have been really impressed. Its exellent. The best part is I have yet to run into any nudity and sexual content. Its volent but for me thats a plus I love action. I can't wait to see what the anime will be like and its done by ADV, so I'll probobly know most of the voices.

That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

I was really looking forward to this, but after seeing the whole thing was just slightly disappointed. Not because anything was wrong, but simply because they did so much character exploration that I thot it should have been a 26 ep series instead of 13. That was my only complaint

I saw the TV series and loved it. Whether the manga is different I don't know, but I can confirm that the anime has no nudity or sexual content. I suspect that the storyline of the manga continues past the point where the series ends, since the first volume of the manga covers about half of the entire anime series (I have yet to read the second volume). If this is the case, it is nothing unusual, but I do not think it detracts from the anime series; I was quite happy with the ending.
Let others believe in the God who brings men to trial and judges them. I shall cling to the God who resurrects the dead.

Henrietta did rock that P-90, and Triela and her shotgun, and Rico and her dragonov

Yumie's a big fan of this manga, so we'll probably have to check this anime out. . . after they release a box set.
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 still haven't read any of this. It still looks interesting. But it did sound like it might get rather intense later on. So, I'm still waiting, I guess. ^.^ I have a bunch of other things on the list to check out ahead of this.
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

He who is easly amused is amused more often
He who laughs last was just to dumb to get the joke

intense? Not violently... nothing's really intense (i mean there is a fair share of violence) But this story isn't about violence and fighting, its about their lives as these artificial girls, and how they must adapt
pretty much the only sexual reference in the anime was when
[spoiler]Triela complains that she's having menstrual cramps, and Henrietta says she doesn't know what that is like because she does not have a Uterus (remember, these are mechnically altered girls)[/spoiler]
