Before I get to the pros let me get the cons out of the way, There are 2 problems with this series, first is the main character Watanuki, who pretty much yells and complains most of the time, it is very annoying. The second is not a problem for me, but seems to upset a lot of people, the way the characters are drawn is something unique, they are out of proportion. Now the pros, the animation itself is very good, despite the disproportionality. The most interesting character is Yuuko, a supernatural woman that Watanuki made a deal with. She says the most interesting things and is frequently profound, she also has the best wardrobe I have ever seen in an anime. It was Yuuko that kept me watching this series. I put up with the annoying main character because of her. There are quite a number of spirits from Japanese mythology in this series, many of which I never heard of and some which I got a better understanding of while watching this series. I would like to mention the opening songs for seasons 1 & 2 are interesting and enjoyable, although they are in a style I don't usually like. If you want a new and serious take on the supernatural then this a good one to choose.
