| | THEM Anime Reviews 4.0 - Magic Knight Rayearth |
 | | Rayearth, much like its characters, its mascot, and the very world it portrays, is full of surprises, and a good deal more inspiring and deep than it ever claims to be. |
 | | The manga form of Rayearth was intended to be a lighter, more audience-friendly work from the group that produced the angsty and brooding Tokyo Babylon and, later, X. But even in its lightest material (Card Captor Sakura), CLAMP has a tendency to present forbidden relationships, tangled romances, and heartbreak, and Rayearth is no different. |
 | | Of course, I haven't yet mentioned the titular Rayearth, which is one of the "Magic Gods" (literally Mashin) that the Magic Knights eventually use to defend and save Cephiro. |
