That good?
JC Staff, actually putting money into something. They're one of the few studios who do their best to make their shows not only pretty to look at, but interesting content-wise as well. When they go all-out, the results are invariably good.
The series is part of Fuji TV's noitaminA screening block, which has included, in the past, Honey & Clover (both seasons), Nodame Cantabile (both seasons and the upcoming third later this year), Moyashimon, Toshokan Sensou, Paradise Kiss, Ayakashi and its spinoff Mononoke, Antique Bakery, Hataraki Man and, most recently, Tale of Genji. noitaminA was set up as an experimental, adult-oriented, non-shonen timeslot. As you can tell from the past titles, this has included a lot of josei manga series. Ratings-wise, it has proven successful, with almost every one of these shows getting into the weekly anime top ten at some stage. Which is doesn't sound like much, until you realise that noitaminA is on after midnight and these shows are up against prime-time series.
