Not true manga, but a sweet tale nonetheless.

The most darling thief of hearts!

"Since Amazon has already given us a description, I won't mince words - Kaitou Saint Tail is an almost perfect show, with no empty plot holes or anything of the sort. They drop a major plot detail right away in episode one, seemingly leaving it open, but really, it is only waiting to show up again near the end of the show, in about episode 40 (three episodes away from the end!). The beginning only sets up the spectacular ending; although there are an unearthly amount of fillers, they all have the same, wonderful essence of Saint Tail. The first episodes all set up plots that will come together in the most perfect, fitting ways. Meimi and Asuka make the most darling couple - tearing out each other's hair and screaming at each other. This really is a *shoujo* anime, but I really think that if you don't like shoujo, that's not something that should mark 'Saint Tail' down. (After all, I don't usually like shonen anime, but that doesn't mean that they all stink.) Overall, Saint Tail is just a great anime that I adored to pieces (I frequently rewatch it). I only wish that more people knew about it!"

This could turn into a beautiful beggining

"Just recently I bought this at a store and it came with the first issue of the manga for free. So I'm thinking why not? Give it a chance. So I read the Manga then I watched the first disk, and this is what I think. I didn't think it was fantastic, but I did like it. To me it seemed like a series that would grow over time and I think I'm right. The anime was pretty accurate, at least to the english version of manga, and it made me want to get the second issue on both versions. But if you want to know what I think of the second version your going to have to read that review, but anyway if you like shows like sailor moon and cardcaptor, I would have to say it's similar in it's own way. It is pretty original, but I have to say some of the plot lines are pretty cheesy. So I'm pretty sure your wondering what I did like about this series, well Duh!!! The Love story, to tell you the truth that's why I'm hooked. It's so cute, but the thing is Meime who is also Saint Tail can't tell Asuka Jr. that she's in love with him because he doesn't know that she is Saint Tail, which if you ask me I think he's in love with Saint Tail without knowing that she's his fellow classmate at school during the day. I'm sure you can imagine being around the guy you love and he doesn't even know who you really are. But if you are somewhat interested in watching this I would say go for, mostly just for the chase Asuka Jr puts on for Saint Tail, It makes me wish I was chased after like she is!!!!! A must have if you like cute simple anime!!!"
