I'd just like to say thanks to this bit of information, i shall be checking out Kannazuki no Miko as quickly as possible. I agree - it is a shame that Kubota doesn't do much work, though then again - she creates a style that can't be used for just about any series.

What I find interesting is one particular scene in the opening where Kyoshiro stabs Kuu directly in the chest (where we saw the glowing mark in episode 1) with his sword and then we see him crying. Hmm, wonder what that is about.
I'm only following this show to see what becomes of Kyoshiro and Kuu. The yuri scenes are rather unsettling to me .

Same with me. Many of my associates like to inform the customers the name of specific locations in the store that only we should be using and this confuses the customers. Which of course they come ask me cause of the location i work at. I meet them half and I, of course can't finish my task and have to stay after the store closes to finish.

@ Shiroth ~ if you are gonna pick up KnM anime version (i dnt read manga that often ) then you will need to stick to it past the repetitive boring parts (which managed to fail me once ) and then it turns into one hell of an emotional ride :3 but knowing you i bet the musical score is enough to keep ya going

Hahaha . That would be funny. Although I agree that Setsuna probably harbours feelings (beyond that of a servant) for Kyoshiro, I don't think she is the type who will plot against Kuu. To me, she's more of the background flower that will always yearn but will not be cruel toward her innocent rival - although it was interesting that Setsuna said she will take Himiko when Kaon refused to hand over Kuu. I wonder if there was truth to her words or she's just trying to irritate Kaon. Although this is purely speculation, I'll put it as spoilers just to be safe.

Kyoshiro to Towa no Sora seems to have more fanservice as I expected first (luckily somehwhat^^).
However I dont like how they overexegarate with those prince and princess themes...I mean, seriously, a prince coming on a whte horse to save his princess... But its too early to judge i guess.

The way I see it...this show is simply for the fun or the heck of watching something because you're bored. There isn't any realistic ploy: an extremely basic plot, funny coincidences and gimmicks that shouldn't be taken seriously. So yeah...whenever I see the white horse, I'd just laugh - if they're going this far, why not take it a step further and made it a pegasus. At least, then I can say...preetttyyy...and laugh .
Anyway, when I saw Kuu going to that mailbox, I was expecting there to be a hole at the bottom of that mailbox and through the ledge, so that when she drops the envelope in, it will simply go straight through the bottom and down the hill...and her prince awaits at the very bottom to catch it . Seriously, is there really a Haiken (that's what she called her prince...I assume it's his name or something). Does someone actually read and/or respond to her letters or do they simply accumulate in that mailbox? Ah, the mysteries of illogic.

I'm fond of those fairy tale like animes like the whole "prince and princess" thing. Sure, there were awkward scenes and sometimes too exaggerated scenes. As for the fanservices, well....I have no say to that

I was wondering about the mailbox too. Maybe there's some tragic backstory associated with it. It did have a red background associated with it...
Spoiler:
Anyway, I like fairy tale type stories too. Excellent replay value imo.

That's squarely aimed at the female audience. Part and parcel for being a "prince" in Western fairy tales is to ride a white horse. The music also fits the epic Western fairy tale mode imo.
I'm wondering why Setsuna is in a "maid" role if she's a powerful angel. You can't marry the prince if you're working in his household.
