But Paradise Kiss really disappointed me. Maybe I was affected by the first impression of Cantonese version. I can’t bear their voice which sounds like expressionless and flat. Then from episode 2 I began to watch Japanese version. However, once first impression was formed, it was difficult for me to change. The boring plot, intolerable voice, disgusting characters of hero and heroin and the like all make me feel uncomfortable. George is a polygamous man which ought to be my favorite type, but not in this animation. In this one, I found he not only expressed his regard for female but also for male. It was still not the most important factors of my dislike. His expression of love was too vague to comprehend, which rendered me a negative sensation. Although in the last episode he showed his favor of Yukali---there were tears in his eyes when he drove away, the whole image was too late to change. The only spot, in my notion, considered to be good, is the last episode. I didn’t feel any sorrow in the departure but satisfied with the end, because this brought them real happiness.
