Plot: Mai is a normal, but orphaned high schooler. It starts out with Mai telling a horror story to friends and was interupted by a Kazuya Shibuya (Mai calls him Naru, because of his narcissistic personality), she soon learns that he is the president of the SPR (Shibuya Psychic Research...basically kinda like Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok.)
I had started this series, only a few days ago. I only watched the anime, but I have yet to read the novels and the manga. Anyway, here's my thoughts on the series.
For one, I really thought the artwork was excellent! I really thought they did a good job. Then, the plot was really good. It caught my attention instantly. For me, I've always liked the fantasy that involves either vampires or ghost (that's probably why I'm in love with xxxHolic and Vampire Knight.) I would also recommend this anime to those who like a scary anime (It wasn't terribly scary, but it was more than I could take...which isn't much.)
On the other hand, I wasn't crazy for Naru's personality. I know that the author purposely made him a jerk, but there was something about him that I wasn't crazy for (Although, I do like the pairing MaiXNaru.) Then, I was a little dissapointed that the plot didn't progress that much. I know of information that wasn't in the anime, making the anime a little shallow for my taste (although, late in the series they showed a little information about both Mai and Naru, but that was it.)
Well, all in all, I would give this a four out of five.
