Magic Knight Rayearth Options

[yuzuki chan17]

I'm just curious about something. Everyone who has posted here obviously likes the anime or manga of Magic Knight Rayearth. (I mean, what would be the point of posting here, right?) I want to know what drew you into the series? Did the animation, characters, or plot intrigue you?



For me, it was the character design. I watched a one-minute preview of the series on a Rurouni Kenshin VHS tape. The character design captivated me. I wanted to see it so badly after watching one single preview. I couldn't find it in the store for the longest time, so the preview was all I had. I watched it like 10 times in one day, wondering what it was about XD

Like the flames I lost you to, sadness overwhelms me, too

The rain sends shivers down my spine and seeps into my memory

Who was it that loves you so? Who was it that hates you so?

I gasp in pain- the memories begin to swirl inside my mind

For me it was thanks to CLAMP's interesting love for alternate universes and connecting their series. You see, I had just finished watching Angelic Layer; and I was really in love with Hikaru (I was in love with Hikaru before I even watched MKR! Now that's what I call real life foreshadowing! ♥), so when I wikied it and found out where the Hikaru-bot came from, I obviously wanted to see it. I mean, I was a bit sad that Hikaru was only a robot, I wanted to see what she would be like as a human. So I watched the first episode on youtube, watched the second episode on youtube shortly after, and it became one of those "watch the series all in one sitting because it's soooo awesome O_O" times. Then it sort of grew on me, and here I am! XD
