If you liked Hoshi no Koe, you'll probably like this one. I'd recommend watching it subtitled rather than dubbed.... some of the dub VAs sound marvelous, but a couple of them are pretty mediocre. The artwork has a "rough" feel to it, which I find really nice since so many shows nowadays look overly polished.

Viz's release excels in some areas and is absolutely horrible in others. The packaging and extras are to die for; the subtitles, however, made me want to kill myself. Grammatical errors and typos are unforgivable in professional releases. So is typing "Shuji" when the Japanese voice actress clearly just said "Shu-chan." Ignoring honorifics and neglecting to add song subtitles are the kinds of things that give American anime DVDs a bad reputation (which, for the most part, they really don't deserve).
