Wow o_o

I hope the designs are as lovely as they are in the manga.

Need I explain my excitement over this? ^^

Also, it was misreported. Madhouse will be producing, not Gainax.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!! I've been dying to see a Paradise Kiss anime ever since I read the GNs.

So do I. I hope that they don't change Yukari's dress that she wears for the contest. It's perfect as is. I've been trying to find a *color pic of that dress but no luck. My favorite character is Miwako. She's adorable! And I love Isabella's clothes. I wish I could wear clothes like that. Isabella may be able to pull it off but I sure wouldn't be able to.

*My friend sort of found a full color pic. It's someone cosplaying as Yukari.

What could possibly bring me to the forums, or particularly to this thread?

Good news, of course.

Not only has Paradise Kiss been animated, but it has since been both completed and fansubs.

Twelve episodes total, and they're every bit as beautiful as it should be. Music is gorgeous, and as a plus? Franz fucking Ferdinand (the band, not the archduke).

Someone has graciously uploaded all twelve episodes to YouTube, links to which can be found here:

I've been out of the anime fandom for a while, but if there's anything that could get me back into it, it's this.

Also, I noticed a thread about Nana on the first page. Fans of that should check this out, as they're both Ai Yazawa works.

Enjoy.

Oops. I coudln't remember if Franz Ferdinand did the ending or opening. Well, either way, she showed both to me, and I liked both.

I'm pretty sure a LOT of stuff is against their TOS. I've seen a shitload ofa nime openings and closings, Sentai clips, TV and movie clips/episodes, etc.

If you'd like to report the hosted episodes, go right ahead. But it was either link to there, or link to the torrents I've found. And since YouTube requires a lot less on the part of the viewer, it's the more logical choice.

I'm amazed at the fact that they fit full episodes on there. I thought there was a 10 minute cut off limit to avoid the "episode uploading" thing. O_o I'll have to watch them when I have time time. If they are still there later, of course.

Someone uploaded the entire Corpse Bride movie on there the day after it was released. It's not there anymore though.

I've been watching entire episodes of YCDTOTV on Youtube.

Strangely, the Pitagora Suicchi episodes I've seen there have been split in two parts, although each full episode runs just 15 minutes.

I watched the entire R movie on youtube at once

And the tv show is great

Uh... Okay...

Let's get back on topic here, ne?

For starters... What is it about, and why would I want to see it?

Plot Summary: Yukari is a typical high-school student who listens to her parents and attends school everyday. As she starts to question her way of life, she encounters a group of fashion design students who has a clothing label known as "Paradise Kiss". The group needs to find a model to showcase their designs in an up-coming fashion show and decides to pick Yukari instead.

I just saw the first episode last night and I really liked it. From what I can see, it's unique.

This show really pisses me off. I hate almost every character. It was a waste of 12 half hours of my life, even though the opening is reeeeally good.

NANA is a much better show.
