Paradise Kiss

Plot (from ANN):
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. Initially, Yukari was reluctant to be associated with this seemingly eccentric group, but eventually, she realises that they are really nice people. Furthermore, their passion and enthusiasm to follow their ideals and dreams make Yukari realise that she has not been enjoying her life and this motivated her to pursue her own dream.


My Thoughts:
I was not expecting this to be anything good but much to my surprise I could not turn it off. This was a very good show. It was a very nice "coming of age" story. It definitely made my reminisce about when I was in college trying to figure out what I really like and who I really wanted to be. The ending was kinda sad but it was definitely appropriate. I definitely recommend this. This was a no frills anime show and it was really really good. The animation by the way was really good.
