I knew after the first episode of the show that I would have to read thee manga adaption (this is one case where the show was made first)and I loved it.
I didn't like kyubey having expressions, because it takes away from his creepiness, but either way, this is one of thee most amazing plots and cast of characters that I have ever been privileged to read/watch. Anyone hoping to make a living as a novelist or script-writer should watch this show, or read the manga.
Simply captivating and incredible.
