Several years ago I watched the anime romance series Marmalade Boy in its entirety. It's shamefully compelling, all my friends and I were completely drawn in and watching it together (nothing like a bunch of guys all gathered together to watch a soap opera aimed at teenage girls!) At Sakuracon this year one of those same friends picked up the entire series on DVD (we'd been watching fansubs back in the day) and it is just as compelling now as it was then. Shameful.
