Bincho-tan?
Anyways, I think that 2006 is better compared to this year.

Re: 2006 season
If u mean Rozen Maidens, you would be damn pissed to see the ending for 1(manga), and the way the continuation started for 2... Kinda like "WTF IS THIS!?!?" in both.ainsoph9 wrote:That is too bad. I really enjoy the series.

Re: 2006 season
I remember that well. And I think that they didn't show Suigintou's good side at all. However, I think that side of her's appeared later in the manga.ShadowZeroHeart wrote:Spoiler! :

*Note: some details may be remembered wrongly*b0mb3r wrote:explain to me why this show/manga is good?
Rozen Maiden is a story about a master doll maker, hoping to create the perfect doll. He then created different versions of this "perfect doll", yet none was able to satisfy his perfection. Eventually 7 were made, and they were made to hunt each other down, in a belief/game that says that when one of the dolls get all 7 parts, she would then be the perfect doll, and be granted access to meet their maker/father. (Though they are dolls, they can move and talk like little girls)
The protagonist is a closed-off kid, a boy good at sewing, and is not exactly getting along with people. He stays home whole day, and addresses his needs with online ordering. One day, he receives a question, whether to accept or not. Unable to understand really, he accepted, and receives one of the 7 dolls, the mature Shinku. He is eventually dragged into this "game" of theirs.
Later on, he came to meet with all the different dolls. Each of them are cute and has a clear personality. Ichigo who is cute, a pair of twins, one of which is a bully(sorta), the other rather submissive, Suigintou(in the manga) is cool yet kind, etc.
He is unable to bring himself to truly go through the game that brings about the end of the dolls' lives. And thus they live a rather peaceful life altogether, until the horrors of the game comes about...
The best part about the story is the personalities of each of the dolls. The dolls are, indeed, "perfect dolls/girls" in their own sense, so you would likely like one if not more of them. Their actions are simple and childish, bringing you laughs, just as if they are your daughters. Fostering of bonds, how lives change with such bonds, the story brings about much depth despite its comical and interesting atmosphere. (In the manga,) when the true game began, when a Rozen Maiden lost, and is never to awaken again, your heart might literally shatter, as they have already captured your hearts. This however, is not quite possible due to the "good/bad guy" setting in the anime, and the lack of time to make you truly fall in love with all of them. You would probably have hoped that the game can never begin, nor end, yet reality has always been cruel. Just as you might always wonder how the 7th doll would be like, you would be traumatized by her very actions. Its a great mix and blend if you ask me.
Even so, Suigintou seems like a total crap/nutcase in the anime!! Shes mature and clever, and kind!!kira0802 wrote:I remember that well. And I think that they didn't show Suigintou's good side at all. However, I think that side of her's appeared later in the manga.ShadowZeroHeart wrote:Spoiler! :

Re: 2006 season
Think of Suigintou as a bipolar character. Or cold-yet-cute character. Sometimes, she is in Rena's state, but other times...she's...cute.
Just don't get in a fight with her.

Re: 2006 season
Personally, my favorite character was Suiseiseki, despite the fact that she could act like a brat. The staircase episode was perhaps the funniest one, and it was probably the one that won me over for liking her character.

Re: 2006 season
She does have some of that in her, does she not? I see her more as mischievous than anything though.
