"There is no such thing as Paradise anywhere...and yet, why do i feel this urge to search for it"
I have watched this anime series in 2004 and what i liked about this anime is the characterization, and its soundtrack.
Everytime it rains and i am walking alone i remember the Stray soundtrack, it makes me feel like a stray wolf searching for paradise :)
