Angel Sanctuary

I started reading Angel Sanctuary last night. Years ago I had read the first few chapters but stopped since brother/sister incest really wasn't my thing back then. It still isn't, but it's no longer a major issue for me so I decided to give Angel Sanctuary another shot.

It's so good.

Rosiel/Katan gets so much love from me. I know they're both kinda fucked up and that they'll end up dying but I still think they're adorable together.

I also like Sakuya Kira. Sakuya/Setsuna would have made a better main pair than Setsuna/Sara. I don't really like the Setsuna/Sara pairing; it's not the incest thing that bugs me, it's the fact I find them so boring. The dynamics between Setsuna and Sakuya is so much more interesting since they have that whole history of Sakuya protecting Alexiel.

I've watched the OVA, and I liked it well enough, though Sara and Setsuna were not my favorite part. I don't like reading incest; it always bothers me. >_> But I've heard there are some awesome characters and pairings, so I'll probably at least give it a try one of these days.

The first few volumes are the worst because you get repeated bashed over the head with Setsuna and Sara's relationship. Once Sara dies it's much easier to ignore it; lately I've been able to pretend that they love each other as brother and sister instead of the other kind of love.
