I was flipping through old posts and found this sad little thread with no replies. Thought I'd revive it considering I particularly loved this anime.

I started watching this show quite some time after it finished airing only because I wasn't all that into anime back then. But after watching all 24 episodes, I have to say this is one of the best detective anime of all time. The mysteries aren't too simple or too complicated, and every arc (which is 2-3 episodes) has significant plot development. Not the mention the mysteries aren't at all repetitive like in Detective Conan. The characters are unforgettable and the music is phenomenal (especially the ending songs). The end is as dramatic and epic as you can get it and plot is so intricate it actually takes a second run through each episode to fully understand and appreciate it. I'd give this a 9/10, which is the highest I dare rank any anime. Definitely a must watch.

Just finished it! I watched it all in three days... it is a good series but I would have like to see "Kujo" figure out that Victorique is more than a friend. Also does anyone know why or how her hair turned silver?

The Marie Antoinette Syndrome. Not the political term, but rather the medical term. Here's the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Antoinette_syndrome It's not much, but it explains it in enough detail.
