Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

This series, loosely based on a US comic of the same name, takes place in Japan six years after a devastating earthquake. Protagonist Masane Amaha woke up after the quake without any memory and with a strange amulet on her wrist; she was with a girl she assumed to be her daughter; Rihoko. Now she is moving to Tokyo so she can better support Rihoko. Around the same time there has been a series of brutal murders; it turns out the killers are malfunctioning creations of the Doujo Corporation and they are drawn to Masane's amulet… the legendary Witchblade of the title.Soon Masane comes to the attention of Doujo's bureau chief Reiji Takayama and finds herself working for him. She is employed to destroy the companies creations; in doing so she meets others similar to herself; the Cloneblades. These wear devices based on the Witchblade but inevitably aren't quite as powerful. When she isn't fighting Masane and Rihoko live with an amusing bunch of characters including a freelance photographer who discovers her secret when he photographs her as she fights one of the Cloneblades.I nearly didn't buy this series as the DVD box art suggests it is going to be fan service heavy and involve demonic women fighting… it isn't really like that at all though. When Masane and the various Cloneblades fight they do transform and their costumes leave little to the imagination but for the most part Masane is dressed normally and looks like an ordinary woman; the only think about her that could be considered fan-service are her rather large breasts and they are a cause for occasional humour and are usually well covered. The story has a good plot and likable protagonists; the relationship between Masane and Rihoko is beautifully portrayed and quite emotional at times; especially when it looks as if they might be separated. The villains are suitably dangerous but even they have some sympathetic characteristics which make them more interesting. I liked the character designs; they were fairly distinctive meaning it isn't likely that one would confuse them with each other. Over all I'd heartily recommend this to anybody wanting a series with plenty of action and a good emotional core… don't be put off by the box art!These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

I think my biggest gripe with the Witchblade Anime series might be that because of its style (ie: supple and typically barely covered female anatomy), many potential viewers will be quick to write it off as nothing more than a peep show. While it may be true that Witchblade does contain fanservice en-masse, the story is what is truly remarkable here.The trials and tribulations the lead characters endure from beginning to end brought me to tears several times throughout. The characters are lovable, the action is intense, and the characters reactions to the events that are unfolding around them are exceedingly well done.Yes, there will be moments where the series drags its feet and to that I say, what series hasn't? No media can go full bore all the time without becoming mindless (At least in my opinion). Still, even through the slower moments of Witchblade, the story gradually progresses, until reaching a conclusion that still has me begging for more.I could honestly go on for quite some time about how much I truly, and completely enjoyed every bit of this series. However, at risk of getting into spoilers and potential tirades, I leave you with this: If you like anime, and enjoy a great story with fantastic characters, and great action, give Witchblade a try. You won't be disappointed.
