I'm not so sure about the art style on this one. Usually, I'm very open to the more unique art styles, but it looks like Gonzo took their old dog named Gatekeepers and had it breed with Production I.G.'s xxxHolic because the two thought the resulting puppies would look funny.

They were right.

Other than that, it's not a bad series....but I'm probably content with the manga.

Yuko Goto and Jun Fukuyama as the two lead characters are a big plus though, and Akira (my favorite character) being played by Hitomi Nabatame? Very tempting.

Well, we'll see how it goes. This series has my endorsement, light fun, stupid storylines that make you laugh at how ridiculous they are making it all, but I'm just not sure at this point if I want to spend the time watching it when I already read it.

But Hitomi Nabatame.....

While I am a fan of Jun Fukuyama, I'm not sure if he fits the voice for Kei. Kei is arrogant, but is generally likable, while the Lelouch voice is admittedly terribly annoying at times. Maybe that is why they practically overhauled Kei's face from the manga (making him look like some naughty villain), which I believe has superior art.

Jun Fukuyama's Lelouch is awesome, and I felt it fit quite well for Kei.

Don't get me wrong, by saying terribly annoying, I mean it as in Lelouch's arrogance itself, which implies that Fukuyama did the role perfectly.

Kei isn't like Lelouch at all. His arrogance is more for teasing than any true self-admiration or pride.
