in this anime, there was a reason.. the main femme fatale
dressed that way in order to get an "advantage" 
the rest of the people dressed "normally"
story is kinda sad.. started out light-hearted but somewhere in the
story, you knew there was a darkness in their past which is slowly
revealed and the desperation of it all is sad in a way...
but like a kabuki, you knew it was coming, and they knew they had
to play it out to the bitter end...
it was amazing... so to me, it is THE anime, even better than
Rurouni Kenshin..
that one, i lent to the cult leader and she bawled her eyes out
