Summary: |
Yukari is a typical high-school student who listens to her parents and attends school everyday. As she starts to question her way of life, she encounters a group of fashion design students who have a clothing label known as "Paradise Kiss". The group needs to find a model to showcase their designs in an up-coming fashion show and decides to pick Yukari. Initially, Yukari is reluctant to be associated with this seemingly eccentric group, but eventually she realises they are really nice people. Furthermore, their passion and enthusiasm to follow their ideals and dreams make Yukari realise that she has not been enjoying her life and thus motivates her to pursue her own dreams. The story follows Yukari as she gets involved in the group and eventually falls in love with the leader, George. |

Very much like Nana, only this series revolves around fashion and modeling. It's nice to see that each character is given their own distinct personalities and stories to understand them. I would have liked it better if Caroline was developed more. I kind of felt like she was lacking in character more than the others. True, (in my opinion) her climax point was when she broke free from feeling obligated to her mother but that was pretty much it. Dialogues were bland at some point of the series making it a bit slow-paced and a struggle to watch. Otherwise, ( read more)

Absolutely one of my favourite anime series. Ever. Yazawa Ai's attention to detail in her artwork is exquisite, and the situations in which the main characters face are so realistic that Paradise Kiss is loved by non-anime and anime fans alike. A perfect ending which leaves you wanting more, but ties enough loose ends to keep you relatively satisfied. If you haven't already seen this, then you should really take the plunge, because this is one of the most mature and sophisticated series I have come upon, and that's pretty rare in this genre.

This is indeed of the greatest shoujo series ever created ! Glamorous, yet so close to the real life. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates a good romance story
