Comparing Version 14 to Version 15:

Devil Doll:<br />
<b>Ayatsuji Tsukasa arc</b> ep. 21-24 (Rent):<br />
* girl's character: class rep, manipulative
* girl's character development: erratic
* avatar's character: depressed, subservient
* story focus:romance dramaromance/drama
The most interesting story by far; this one is what I was waiting for, and this series ends up in "Rent" territory because of its final arc.<br />
Tsukasa is the most enigmatic character amongst the girls, plus her air-headed sister and the strange relation between these two provide a decent mystery.<br />
Unfortunately it's also the arc where the four episodes limitation hurts the most as Tsukasa has the potential for a romance drama of [series:1113] dimensions, and with this implementation too many parts of her remain unresolved (and we'll never know what she's actually thinking except for one scene at her desk in her room during episode 22). The scene where she burned the note book came out of nothing, and even when she tried to "delete" her old self it could still have been an act. A relation growing between these two would require building trust, and Tsukasa being such a great actor should make this a tedious task.<br />
So despite providing the most interesting protagonist, the implementation suffers a bit from this, and this arc finishes in second place for me.
