Kusakabe Maron is your average 16 year old girl by day. She goes to school, hangs out with her friends, gossips about crushes. But by night she becomes the Kaitou Jeanne, God's messenger. Guided by her guardian angel, Fin, she goes out to purify artwork that has been possessed by devils, thus turning the people who adore them into servants of the devil. The problem is the only way to purify the devils is to seal the thing they are possessing, thus to the rest of the world Jeanne is stealing precious artworks. To make it worse, her best friend Miyako is the daughter of the police detective assigned to catch Jeanne, thus she usually comes with them. And to pot is off, there's another Kaitou who's out to seal the same devils. Could he be working for Satan himself? And oldie but a goldie for me. I used to watch this on RTL II back in the day. I really enjoyed it for what it is, but to be honest it is quite dated. The character designs are 90's shoujo, with HUGE eyes. The animation is decent for the time, but falls in and out of quality. The story is nothing special.... at first. What I most remember this for is the absolute brutal twist in the last arc. It came almost completely out of nowhere, but was actually foreshadowed. But you wouldn't really catch the hints on the first viewing. Also, if you want to break someone emotionally, that was one hell of a good way to do it. The series is quite long, at 44 episodes, and tends to be a bit angsty at times. Maron is not a happy girl and might actually suffer from depression. She definitely does by the start of the last arc. R2 DVD remux, but no subs. Stardust is working on this show. They're up to episode 15. **Rating: 6/10** https://anidb.net/anime/354
