Li'l Kaoru

Poor Kaoru! She thinks Ken said something romantic about her. The truth is, he'll never get up the gumption to make a move. Kill burnt-to-a-crisp madmen? Sure. Take on every leftover assassin from the Revolution? No problem. Marry Kaoru? He'd turn to stone first....

Though I'm a serious anime fan, and though I collect cels like there's no tomorrow, there are two things I hate about it: when a series has no ending or an ending that makes absolutely no sense (call this the Escaflowne syndrome, version 1); and the Japanese perverseness that keeps two characters who were made for each other from getting together (call this the Escaflowne syndrome, version 2).
