Kurenai

[Staulmaster]

Does anyone else know about or watch this show? It's about a sixteen year-old "negociator" of sorts who's put in charge of looking after a seven year-old girl who happens to be part of a wealthy and plutocratic family, the Kuhouins. The little girl (Murasaki Kuhouin) like all women in her family, was confined in a small room called the "Inner Sanctuary", where she is to stay there, without any interaction from the outside world until she fullfills her purpose, which is simply to have children and carry on the family name.

When I first watched this, I found it quite strange (missing the first two episodes didn't help) but as I continued watching, I found it more and more interesting. It's slower and more dramatic than most animes (most that I've seen, anyway) and it has a slice-of-life feel to it, but it's worth watching. The characters are interesting for the most part, and the plot, although slow-moving, gets quite engaging later on. Unfortunately, the hsow only has twelve episodes (and I'm gonna watch the last two this friday!).

Anyone have anything to say about it?

I remember watching this, I love the random concert episode when they all sing XD and their unique fighting style looks awesome

Yes! That episode where they practice for the musical is my favourite one!

Anywho, I just saw the two last episodes to day, and I must say, they were aresome. I was just confused when Murasaki's father said that he will fight her to prove her worthiness at the end, it seemed oddly out of place. In any case, I greatly enjoyed this anime, and I am sad to see it finished.
