Commence with the confetti to celebrate erlic4god's stupendous DNAngel review!
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

(I've had to jump around in this series (which is okay, because I've read all of the currently released in the U.S. manga), but there are a few other things I'd like to add: For one, Daisuke accidentally falls on Risa. Riku takes this the wrong way. Second, Riku is connvinced that Dark is a pervert, and isn't afraid to say so. One exchange, (put in spoiler tags because it's during a later episode)

[spoiler]Dark had to hold on to both Risa and Riku to keep them from falling when they are transported to the world of Daisuke's painting. Riku does not like this, and struggles quite a bit. Dark, of course, tries very hard to keep her from falling and holds her tighter, but she falls anyways. After they land, Dark admonishes her, "This never would have happened if you hadn't been struggling!" "I won't if you're trying to touch my chest, you pervert!" "I had to, otherwise you'd fall!" "See, you are a pervert!" "I'm not a pervert!" and here Risa breaks in.[/spoiler]

(But I agree, it's an excellent series, I always put aside some money for whenever I go to FYE to buy a volume.)

Under "Bad Religion," it should probably also be noted that the older of the two sisters consults Tarot Cards and takes their "predictions" seriously.

Yea, that really should be mentioned. But that was probably the worst part of the series, and so far (i've only seen a few episodes) the terot cards have only been seen a few times.
