Paradise Kiss

Paradise Kiss
Anime Review
Introducing the cast (L2R):
(Isabelle, George, Caroline, Arashi and Miwako)


Storyline
Its time again for another anime review. This week lets turn into the world of Fashion. In this anime, Paradise Kiss, a studious girl named Caroline who stopped pursue her studies and join the fashion world. Life was tough for her at first with all the struggling from her school exams, her parents and her interest as a model? Her mother refused her to be a model, that's why one faithful day she left home. Joining the talented fashion designer, George and the other members of the crew Isabelle (A transsexual since childhood), Miwako (Sister of the Happy Berry owner) and Arashi (A singer and guitarist). They often seen in their working place named The Atelier, where they usually hang-out and having parties to celebrate after successful deals. Caroline deeply felt in love with George on her way up to become a model. With just few months, she became top in her modeling carrier, although she did fail her entrance exams, aiks. But thanks to the help of George, she is a successor in her modeling.

Even so life isn't smooth for Caroline as the person she loves most moved to London. She was asked to go with him but she refused as she doesn’t want to abandon her carer. After the departure of George, everyone went their own separates way. Arashi has form a band on his own, while Miwako works for her sister in 'Happy Berry' and surprisingly Isabelle followed George to London on the cruse as well. I think it make sense since they are childhood friends after all. Caroline received a key from George that day and to her surprise, he left all the cloths he designed to Caroline. No doubt she cries afterward.

5 years has passed, and in the end, it clears that she becomes a fashion icon in Japan based on the photos and certificate she hung on her wall. But I still can't figure out who is the person she was going to marry, all I know was a man came in and she claim that he is her boyfriend. To my guess, I think that guy was Hiro, her formal classmate (since Miwako dump him for Arashi). But thats only my assumption though XD really need to find out more =.="

Medias
Opening theme:- Lonely in Gorgeous by Tommy Februry6
(it's one of Tommy best music eva ^^ her MV was strangly unique, watch it then you know what i mean)

My end verdict?
For those who are interested in modeling, please do continue your studies for backup, just in case thing didnt go well in modeling for you. ^^ Well... the was the artist compsed this anime, camera angles are quite different compared to other anime. Unique!

Rating: 4/5, too short, only 12 episode =P
