Paradise Kiss survives the transitition to anime well. They have taken out a lot of the fourth wall breaking, but have kept much of the atmosphere that made the original manga so good. I wonder if they will keep in the more sexual plot twists. I was surprised that the Arashi/Miwako makeout scene was kept in, boobies and all. Although Miwako's breasts have been really toned down. In the manga, she was huge. I can't wait to see more! I've watched up to episode 3. Of course, the extra bits of surrealism before the opening are a bit odd, I think, and the ending song is fun, but what's up with Miwako's ass? Like wtf?
