Not so long ago this would have had no appeal at all but then I saw the greatness of Maria-Holic. I have no doubt after an episode or 2 I will drop this like a sack of shit but Im willing to give it a chance
Oh shit...trap anime... I feel for the Japanese who unsuspectingly switch the channel and find themselves watching this, thinking the wrong thing... oh this cruel world...
