I started watching this anime about a month ago and I'm about 3/4 of the way through and I gotta say that it is possibly the best anime I have ever seen.
Plot? There IS no distinguishable plot. What you have here are amazing characters thrown in situations so ridiculous that your brain will be overloaded by how insane it all is. But it is also the funniest thing I have ever seen. I'm a hard person to make laugh and this show has made me laugh from beginning to end.
Occasionally you have an arc that appears everyn 30 or 40 episodes or so and it will last for about 4 episodes, but really, there is no plot. The arcs are awesome though. But you grow really fond of how each episode totally doesn't relate to the last.
The best thing about this show is the characters. They are all suitably crazy, but so much fun and they all have hearts of gold. The show makes you laugh a lot, but there is a lot of intelligence to it too.
It's one of the few anime that will make me laugh myself silly and cry from time to time too.
If you're after intelligent plot and a gripping storyline, I wouldn't recommend this.
But if you're after something to sit back, chill and let the absurdity and awesomeness carry all your troubles away, this is the show for you.

If you can imagine Yuri on Ice! meets Holmes of Kyoto, then this is it. Slow paced but gripping. Boy-Love but not distasteful...

media.tokyoinsider.com is back up now. You know when media.tokyoinsider.com is down because when it's down, the "What's hot"...
