First off, Clamp fans will be happy to know that this is one of the group's more recent works. While the artwork isn't as awe-inspiring as some of their other creations, Angelic Layer is undoubtedly one very entertaining anime. The dolls look especially good, with their uniquely designed suits and funky hair styles -- it's just what Clamp fans are dying to see! Misaki's training progresses at a believable pace, but it's not boring to watch. Don't worry, it's not at all like Pokemon (with the battle arenas, etc.). AL is actually a somewhat short series. The Japanese vocal cast is excellent -- the voices suit the characters nicely. This anime can be viewed by everyone -- there's no nudity, sex, blood, nor foul language. The action consists of nothing but little fights between dolls. The soundtrack is also something to look forward to, both the opening and ending themes are great and the background music fits everything well. My mother was nice enough to take my sister and I downtown to an anime convention, and so she got to watch a few eps with us. I laughed my head off when they stopped after a few episodes, and she yelled "What? They're just going to leave it at that!?". Apparently, this title is okay for none anime fans as well...
