Okay, let's just start out with this. Yu Watase is my absolute favorite Manga writer of all time. She has a box but her stories are always too big to fit inside. Ceres Celestial Legend (or Ayashi no Ceres) is an incredible and creative series. When I got this, I had already read the first half of the manga. It starts on the episode: The Holy Relic of the Mikages. Wonderful episode. The discs have 12 episodes which may make it seem like a rip-off, at between 45 and 50 dollars. But believe me, it's worth it. The series has two big downfalls. The english dubs, and the blood. I got a little tired of red. I definitely recommend watching the series in Japanese. They just take away so much of the emotion in the english version. Blood is in nearly every episode, especially towards the end. The story cancels out the blood though, so does the animation. Yet again, the art is beautiful. (*tear* I wish I could draw like that!) The story is about Aya Mikage who happens to be the reincarnation of a revenge bent celestial maiden (Ceres). Her story unfolds in the first six manga (I dunno about the first 12 eps.). There is NO similarity between it and Sailor Moon! Be warned. The manga is a bit different. The anime starts in volume 5 and to all appearances, skips six. They might've covered it in the first one, I don't know. But this is a must at least read for any Yu Watase fan! I definitely would recommend this to anyone who likes celestial maidens, reincarnation, hot guys, um... blood (you don't have to like it, but it would probably make the series flawless.), and beautiful animation and plots.

IF you are a fan of Yu Watase...then you will love Ceres Celestial Legend!! The ending is not what you would expect. Ceres is still looking for her Mana so she can return to heaven...and the other charaters just grow on you. Yuhi still loves Aya and Aya still loves Toya and he finally finds out his past!! If you bought the collector's edition volume 1...then don't wait to buy the 2nd edition!!! You will definately Cry!!

I had only read the books that this show is based on, and I was worried that like with most things they would cut things out for the tv series. However, they did not! The show followed the books almost spot on. The quality was great and if you love the books you will love the show. The only bad thing was being sad that it ended!

If you are a Yuu Watase manga fan, then Ayashi no Ceres is a must have to your collection. I love this edition with Watase interviews and all.

if u luv Yuu Watase then ull definately LUV this series. Yuu Watase is known for her luv comedy stories and her fantastic drawings, and guess WHAT!!! This story has exactly dat, along with tragedy, and blood, but dont let that throw u off from a really good story. Definatley a MUST SEE for all Yuu Watase fans. Luv u Yuu!!! ^_^

i bought this dvd.....because mainly i wanted to know what happend at the end of the series.....cause i already know what happens in the begining.

and well let me tell u ....it was awsome totally worth the money...some things u wont expect to happen, happens.

the only downfall i would say is that there is way WAY too much blood.

it was like every episode...BLOOD!!!

oh well...it was an awsome story none the less....romance...action.....and mysterious plots.

very VERY interesting.

OMG. i saw this and it totally blew me away. first off, nearly everybody dies!! When chidori died, i cried so much!! its just...the way she died was so sad. she dies right there in Yuhi's arms..*sniff* this second half of the series was way darker than the first. well, the whole series is pretty dark anyways. i was also kinda sad that shuro only had a short apperiance. the manga had shuro as a way more improtant character. they killed off her character too. it was also sad that well.... i wouldnt want to give away the ending, but ill just tell you that there is lots of blood!! to much killing on the second disk in this package. but its still really good, so go get it and see what i mean!!
