Review
TDoD is a pretty good anime. I loved the Tenchi Muyo series, well…most of the time. Its goes by quickly but in that short time, you swing through many different emotions. When Ryoko gets serious, it’s magic on screen, seeing her softer side is nice. It’s has it’s funny moments but basically maintains a serious atmosphere until the very end. It is a good watch, not a huge action packed adventure, but good none the less. If you love anime and looking for a solid title you haven’t seen yet, this one may surprise you.
Overall:
7.2 (Solid) / Not the best, but just good on all accounts, at least rent it.
