I watched Mai-HiME, also knows as My-HiME last week, and do have to say, by far, it is one of the best anime i have ever seen, it starts out fairly slow, and really not all that great, but later on it really picks up, and you realize the reason that the beginning was so slow is because they were in a way, setting up the characters for you, making it so that later on the plot twists and ect. were just that amazingly much better. I would recommend some decernment while watching it is really a amazingly well done series, everything from the story, and plotline to the music and animation, along with the voice acting and everything, its all done top notch.

Cool! It's on my "to see" list. Perhaps when I'll watch it when I'm done with Tsubasa Chronicle. Thanks for the reccomendation!

Mai Hime is very good if you look past the fanservice(and there is quite a lot though not as bad as some series). Also If I may do not quite watching it if you feel its to sad. Only quite if the fanservice is bugging you. So that hint at a spoiler I will say its decent, not the best, but decent.

Yep, I love the series. So emo!
Although I found the fanservice pretty funny as a girl, it kills the fun of sharing it with my bro and other guys. So yea..downside. Personally though I didn't really mind.

Mai-HiME, good series indeed!

The yuri twist at the end (coupled with the absurd fan service) really ruined this show for me. Alas for shows which are killed, beaten and dismembered by absurd fanservice!

Oh yes I forgot about that scene, or could we call it selective memory deletion? Yes that part was awfull, and I remeber why I skipped an episode.

Bad.
[spoiler]We see, in profile through a paper screen, as girl A takes off her kimono and slips into bed with unconscious girl B. *washes out her brain with soap* She kisses her later, additionally.[/spoiler]
There's a completely review of this series in the review section, though. It's under "Dancing Princesses", I believe.

i thought her kissing her was only a dream, being that the two other girls showed up before she got a chance too

No, it happened, but the girl who was kissed assumed it was just a weird dream. *gag*

I watched Mai-Hime and I enjoyed it very much. It is a fun show to watch. At times it is thouching and sad. The animation is very good and I liked the fight scences. The music reminds me of Noir at times (that means it is good). Big thumbs up.
BUT, and this is a big one, there was a lot of fanservice. To be honest, if it wasn't for the fanservice, this anime would be in my top 5. But, it's there, so be warned.

You're most welcome. If I had known that was going to happen (it was like two episode from the end), I wouldn't have watched the series at all. This element totally ruined the show for me.
