You should all be ashamed for not mentioning that anime.
Shame on you.

Indeed, it is quite a good series. Few times have I seen a series that hand the friendship theme so well. The only requirement for you to enjoy this series is to imagine the first episode never existed
Apart from that, I may use this space as a means to promote the two series from the last season that I like the most:
- Simoun: Despite being from a sub-genre that I don't particularly like (yuri), apart from that it has every element I love from a story: An epic story, a huge cast with well developed characters that develop through the series and well developed relationships between each character. Really, if you have some time give this underrated series a go.
- A must see for those that liked Juuni Kokki or those who like medieval settings. It may seem a little girly at first but fear not, its well developed characters keep the story driving at full force from the first to the last chapter, and into the next season.
As you can see the main thing I search in a series are strong and well-developed characters
Hence my favorites series are often forgotten titles like Figure 17, Aria, Mushishi, Kino no Tabi... followed by Stellvia, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Juuni Kokki, etc.
