Maid Sama!

I read the manga before the anime was even confirmed, so I knew exactly what I was getting into and what to expect. What I got was exactly what I thought it would be – a laid-back shōjo anime that's great for relaxing, nothing challenging, yet it's not boring and not so prosaic as to offend. I like how the anime ends, because it feels like a "real" ending, while the manga goes on and on and it's not so rosy (but on the other hand there are a few more kawai~ scenes :-D). Maybe I could compare it a bit to Skip Beat!, since we have a strong heroine there too. Some episodes were weaker, some were excellent (like the last one). Just an enjoyable watch. All in all, a weak 4 stars, but with a recommendation for days when you don't want to burden yourself, just relax and smile a bit at the screen (if you're a big cynic, it'll be a slightly different smile than the one I mean :-D).
