Review of Maria Watches Over Us

FYI, I will be talking in regards to the entire series, not just the first season. Where do I even start this? Do I talk about finding this series by pure accident, as a result of confusing Shoujo and Shoujo Ai genres? Or my usual dislike of old series? Do I talk about the staples of yuri, how catholic high school is a frequent setting, and senpai-kohai relationships are almost expected? None of that really matters. I've started the series with no expectations, over a decade after it was made, and it completely took over my attention. I found the setting to be charmingly quaint, charactersto be alien but sincere, and story unsurprising but gripping.

I don't really have any issues with he show, apart from one ark that felt a bit forced, and lack of proper ending. It's just so delightfully weird and captivating, I absolutely recommend that you check it out and make your own conclusions.
