I’ve started watching the anime series, Black Cat. I’ve seen (but not read) fics and read the first two volumes of the manga. There seems to be a fandom fascination with one of the villains, and I couldn’t understand it until I started the anime and realized that he is voiced by Miki Shinichiro. ::laughs:: I’m sure there’s more to it, but that’s a firm starting point.

He does have a beautiful voice. :) Is Black Cat any good? I haven’t heard much about it.

Black Cat isn’t awful, but I’m not really sure that it’s good either. I’ve only read the first two volumes of the manga and watched the first couple of DVDs. That’s not been enough to form a firm opinion. The fact that the manga and anime have different timelines for certain events has also been disorienting.
I think, mostly, I’m not seeing much in it that’s different. It also uses a comic relief tool that annoys me– The characters are perpetually broke and can’t buy food. That sets me off hugely, so I must be finding other things intriguing to keep going anyway.
Basically, the main character used to be an assassin and is now a bounty hunter (the anime starts before the transition and the manga after). Now he works with a couple of partners. The group he used to work for was nasty and is still out there. Someone else who left at the same time he did is setting up to try to conquer the world (or something similar. I’m not far enough in to be sure) and is obsessed with getting the hero to join him.
