@xXGUMIIBEARZXx There's implied affection between some characters, but nothing very much. It's more like the foundation of romance than the romance itself. It gives you an idea of what happens after the series with the characters. I think the manga had a bit more romance too. It's heterosexual though, if that's what you meant.
I remember how the first time aria captured my interest with this sleepy but polite "Оhayo gozaimasu". After the opening begins, I knew it'll be much pleasure to watch this series.
Series such as Clannad: After Story and Aria really make me change my outlook on life. They're such perfect examples of stories that can really only be effectively told by anime which step off from the negative stereotypes that tend to come along with it. The themes in these shows apply perfectly to everyday life and should be adopted by everyone at some point. After all, life can be a beautiful thing, but only if you're willing to accept change for the better. Aria presents this flawlessly.
for those of you who thought anime like Deathnote or Code Geass had some heavy plot, then don't watch this. Shit goes down in this show like no one's business
as for the mood and thoughts in the show, it's really great. but unfortunately to me, i find voice acting too "exaggerated". i would pay for a remake (if i could afford it ;p), just to see a (subjectively) perfect work of art. imho there is some space to make it even calmer, deeper and more 'directly' touching
Aria is my second favorite anime after Code Geass, but I must comment that President Aria [the cat], should not have been able to balance while on the chair. The distribution of weight seemed too uneven. But then again, this is a utopian society =).
I have all the manga, I think its funny as hell. I couldn't find the anime because I had kept thinking it was just Aria not Aria the animation. But yeah good anime.
this my 2nd favourite spice of life anime....d 1st would be honey and clover.....d only mistake i made is that i marathoned watching it.... this is definitelyy in my top 10
Don't take my word on the order, but they're different seasons. I think it's Aria the Origination, Aria the Natural, and Aria the Animation. Each season is a continuation of the last.
I'm very glad I found this anime! It's perfect for me! Nice, relaxing, and peacefull. It is also funny! I really do love it =) Also my favorite character is Alicia! I love it when she giggles and says "ara ara"
No wonder I mostly got sleepy with Aria, I mean, it's not bad or anything, it's just the serenity (or serenissimo as Venetian call it or something) is unmatched in other anime.
is this anime really good ? i saw the first 2 episode, it was too relax that i almost fall asleep, but original idea was interesting but story is kind boring.
Wonderful show, very slow and relaxing. But like most things, you don't realize how precious it is until it's gone...I didn't want it to end! You come to love the characters and NeoVenezia, so parting is such sweet sorrow =(
I read volume 1 of the manga.....the anime looks pretty good. ^^ I saw an ad for the DVD of this and I wanted to search the opening for the series..That's why I am watching this video. After watching the opening I so want to watch the anime!
someone please help me! i want to start watching the "aria seires"..... but i don't know the order and i dont know how many there are...the only ones i know are "aria the animation" and "aria the natural"....someone please help me start this! i wanna watch this so much!
This is one of my favourite animes..i stopped watching for a MONTH because i couldn't watch any others..how are you supposed to watch other animes when you already watched the perfect one.
Great anime, but I'd be seriously scared to live on Aqua. It's suddenly like "What the...I crossed this bridge and now I'm in the past?!" *runs back across bridge quickly*
the best manga series i've read to date. every adventure that Akari undertakes, ranging from trivial, little ones to grand, majestic ones, they all bring a smile and goosebumps to me.
*spoiler*
Just read Aria volume 2....love the part where all main characters gather together to celebrate the New Year's Eve. The countdown part...along with those words that Akari says...omg...I almost cried. 2 Big thumbs up for whoever the author and art designer is.
ADV manga released first 3 mangas around 2004, but they stopped producing more all of sudden. now tokyopop is picking up what adv haven't finished. Btw, tokyo pop is releasing both ARIA and AQUA (prequel of ARIA) I just picked my copy of AQUA AND ARIA in my bookstore.
Hmm. . This anime doesn't really interesting to me. . . but it has a pretty high rating. Any care to tell me what the hype is about?

So I watched and President Aria is actually a cat. A unique cat, not just by appearance, but what he does sometimes in the show.
But I guess every anime that has a cat in the cast is unique in their own way, huh?
