Sega's Magical Girl, January 23, 2010
This review is from: Saint Tail - It's Show Time (Vol. 2) (DVD)
Sega's take on the magical girl anime genre is undoubtedly the best. You've probably seen Card Captor Sakura and Sailor Moon, but Saint Tail AKA Meimi Haneoka puts all those other magical girls to shame. Her personality is much stronger than Serena's/Sailor Moon's, and her escapades with Asuka Jr. are full of both humor and intrigue. Sega does a masterful job of holding our interest in the series by setting two characters up for a romance and then frustrating that chance for happiness with everything that could possibly come between them. This series is a must-have if you are a true Sega fan! In this collection, Takamiya AKA Rina - a cute but overly aggressive girl and the central antagonist by far - is introduced as a rival for Saint Tail. The name of this collection (It's Show Time) is Memi's catchphrase when she uses her magical powers as Saint Tail. This DVD collection is the second of six and contains the following episodes:
Episode 4 - I Hate Wedding Veils!
Saint Tail is after a wedding veil to stop a wedding?! Or is she bringing true love together for a friend?
Episode 5 - Legend of Happiness?! The Clock Tower Commotion
A wonderful amusement park! A special clock tower! And a doll in distress! Saint Tail comes to the rescue!
Episode 6 - New Student Rina, A Formidable Enemy
First Asuka Jr. is constantly after Saint Tail, but now a new student named Rina as well?! What's a girl gotta do to get a break?
Episode 7 - A First Rendezvous of Tears?!
Saint Tail goes after an ancient dagger of legend, but suddenly there are tears and an embrace!

Another great volume of a great series!, June 7, 2004
This review is from: Saint Tail - It's Show Time (Vol. 2) (DVD)
I picked volumes 1 and 2 up on a whim a couple of years ago for my birthday. I didn't really have high expectations for the series. After watching this, I completely fell in love with the series. It's a cute, fun magical girl series with some romance! If you like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura, I highly recommend getting this, it's one of my faves!

Cutest One so Far, November 13, 2001
This review is from: Saint Tail - It's Show Time (Vol. 2) (DVD)
I just got done watching this one, so it's pretty fresh in my mind. Well apart from the first DVD, this one was much better, even thought the plot lines are still a little cheesy they are somewhat better. But this time Saint Tail and Meime(they're the same person) have a rival for Asuka Jr.'s love. The new girl Rina who is also the mayor's niece. Even though I don't think Meime has anything to worry about considering Rina is such a brat and acts so boyish,(in my opinion) I'm sure you would probably agree, but either way you see Meime's true feelings starting to come out for Asuka Jr. (If you don't know who he is, he's a "detective in training" per say, cause his dad is a detective, and the mayor gave Asuka Jr. the case on catching Saint Tail who is supposedly belived to be a theif but in reality she's only protecting the people that have been treated unfairly-like kind of like a used car salesman--sorry it's a little tricky for me to explain). But that's the only reason Asuka Jr. is chasing after her, but during this time she's fallen in love with him and I'm pretty sure he has too, but I don't want to ruin it, you gotta see it for yourself. Hope this helps!!!
