Loveless or Beloved January 1, 2010
Milo Camalanee (Missouri)
Ok...Lets see where do we start. Is it the elegance, the wonderful story, the yaoi, or the rumors....Well how about we start with the basis of the story...
A boy enters his sixth grade class room to be greeted by his teacher with that scene you see that this boy is greatly independent. He instantly develops his first fan girl yukio(just first off I want to apologize I'm American and I also have horrible spelling. So I will butcher these names.) She falls for him instantly...He being in sixth grade and disliking making friends, He could care less that she likes him. When leaving school the teacher confronts them and expresses her concern for him and he acts nonchalant and runs off. He meets an adult who grabs him by the arm and forces an conversation(gently forces) within that converstation he confesses that he was friends with the boys brother. The sixth grade boy ritzuka's brother seimi was murdered. So naturally the boy is taken with this stranger. He goes off with the adult to make memories(taking photos). While taking photos they bring the story line in about the fighters and sacrifices also with the fighters names. The strangers name is soubi(which I can spell ^^) His code name is beloved who was seimi's fighter unit, and seimi was soubi's sacrifice.
Sacrifices and fighters basically are this. A fighter uses words to cast spells such as "rip" "tear" and even as complex as "retreat as birds carried off...." The spells are enchanting to hear and the art that follows the spells are wonderful. And sacrifices take the damage for the fighter unit. When they are hurt they are restricted to some extent, arms chained down, collars chaining the victims. When they are completely restricted they lose.
Well upon their talk they encounter another fighter unit who wants the sixth grade to come with them, soubi fights the people and denies them taking him. The boy can't figure out within the fight ,who the bad guy is if it's soubi or if it's the other fighters. But upon the next fight he sees that their organization was that who killed his brother.
The boy is growing up and maturing and his mom is trying to prevent it by claiming multi personalities. If I give to much more of the story it will be spoilers but it gets much better
The art of this show is so wonderful. The voices are in Japanese. I dislike subbing a lot of I didn't mind it in this case. But there is a side bit of the soubi being twenty and male falling for ritzuka a sixth grade male. Yoai and illegal but it's not bothersome. It's kind-a a key part of the story but the story really does not dwell on it. It's more so as if they are close friends who try to protect each other and they kiss only a few times in the story they are both androgynous so it won't offend those. No nudity.
The story died on episode thirteen...it was sad ended no warning and should no have ended the manga kept up. Anime died. No sign of any more to come but in the original series imported from japan I got back a few years ago(well I borrowed from a friend.) on the last episode it said something about fundings died and could not continue so rumor is they will pick up later but dunno when.
I would suggest this to nearly everyone

I love Loveless for once in my life i read the manga before seeing the anime. Even though it was left with a cliff hanger and there were a few differences it was still perfect for anyone who reads a bad review do not listen to it buyers. the opening music is so romantic and deep. The SD theater is so Rotfl and maybe is hinting to a 2nd season i hope. If you love shounen-ai or the loveless manga get this item!!!!
Wonderful series! July 20, 2009

Loveless is my favorite anime series of all time. The characters are complex, the animation is beautiful, and the story is intriguing. The characters are believable without coming off as irritating. I could relate to and understand the characters in this anime more than any other anime I've watched. The anime has a balanced mix of drama, fantasy, action, romance, and comedy. The only downside is that the ending is abrupt, so you should read the manga (if you haven't read it first) to know the rest of the story. I highly recommend this anime to fans of shounen-ai, the Loveless manga, or anyone interested.
I LOVE THIS SHOUNEN-AI June 3, 2009

LOVELESS IS VERY BEATIFULL.
THE STORY IS SETTED IN KEMONO WORLD, WHERE KIDS HAVE EARS AND TAILS CAT UNTIL THEIR SENTIMENTAL AND SEXUAL MATURITY.
MAIN CHARACTERS ARE RITSUKA (12 YEARS OLD)AND SOUBI (20 YEARS OLD).
THE STORY IS VERY INTERESTING.
IN A FIGHTER SYSTEM TEAM THERE ARE ONLY TWO PERSON: A FIGHTER AND A SACRIFICE WHO SHARE A REAL NAME.
SOUBI'S FIRST NAME IS "BELOVED" SHARED WITH SEIMEI (OLDEST RITSUKA BROTHER). WHEN SEIMEI DIES, SOUBI MEETS RITSUKA AND CHANGES HIS REAL NAME IN "LOVELESS", THE REAL KID'S NAME.
SOUBI IS VERY STRONG AND MAGIC IN HIS WORLD, WHEN HE FIGHTS, IS VERY POWERFUL. HE IS THE BEST IN FIGHTER SYSTEM.
SOUBI WANTS TO STAY BESIDE RITSUKA, HE LOVES HIM AND HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE (HIS BEST FRIEND KIO IS JEALOUS).
RITSUKA IS TOO YOUNG TO UNDERSTAND AND HIS FEELINGS ARE UNDECIDED- "I WANT TO SEE HIM-I DON'T WANT TO SEE HIM-TO SEE HIM IS HURT".
IN MANGA THE STORY IS MORE COMPLETE ( BUT IT'S NOT FINISHED).
SOUBI'S SECRET IS REVEALED, STEP BY STEP RITSUKA FEELINGS ARE MORE CLEAR AND HIS BROTHER SEIMEI IS LIVE, BUT RIT-CHAN DISCOVER THE REAL FACE OF HIS BROTHER AND WHAT HE HAS DONE TO SOUBI.
I LOVE MANGA AND I WATCH DVDS EVERYDAY

Finally found the anime my daughter wanted forever. Very happy with the quick delivery time, and the condition was very good, except for the corners of the outer set box were damaged a little, but the price was very reasonable, and I would definitely do business here again!!!
