Another take on Maria-sama ga Miteru
Found this page when I was wandering around. It’s the crudest rudest most hilarious dissection of Marimite ever. Twisted, but I cannot fault the analysis. Bring on the third season!!
BTW, I am currently making my way through the novel of “Rosa Canina”. It was a toss up, wondered should I start with this or “Ibara no Mori” (where Sei and Shiori angst over love vs God), but in the end I figured I liked Shizuka better than that good-for-nothing Shiori who dumped Sei (losing the one and only love of your life sucks anytime, but losing her to God, now that’s a real whammy). I’m surprised there’s no mountain of SeixShizuka fics out there, these two look too good together to let slip into obscurity. Then again, Shizuka would be competing again Youko, and I guess SeixYouko is just too, ahem, full of potential to give up.
Hmm, after scanning eps 6, 11 and Haru ep 5 for some decent caps (and not really finding any), I’d have to say that SeixYouko beats anything hands down. Sorry Rosa Canina, your character design was dealt a grave injustice in the anime. Go Youko!
