So…he finally wound it again. Not sure why his not winding removed the Rozen Maiden from his world…was it something in the previous seasons that pointed out why he was the chosen one? But now that he’s done it…has he maybe screwed up this world? Maybe he’s leading his dimension to self-destruction! Still have no [...]

The old Rozen Maiden anime chose not to follow the original manga. Instead it invented its own plot, featured a unique Rozen Maiden doll not found in the manga and ended with an open ending. In a yet bolder move Rozen Maiden 2013 ditches the old anime completely, strictly following the manga instead. It also [...]

Rozen Maiden's pace remains unpredictable as the series eases off seriousness to elaborate character personalities, respective shifts, relationships, and the situation that keeps them from moving forward.

Certainly this series is taking its time and moving along at a fairly slow pace. It doesn’t really feel like they are trying to pad things out, but rather just take their time. There wasn’t a ton of drama in this episode, just showing the impact of Shinku coming into the life of this Jun. [...]

Nice defend, Jun! Kirakishou is like twice the creepiness in the anime. Shinku’s finally back in full force and wastes no time enslaving the Unwinded Jun in to her tea maker www. That being said, Unwinded Jun does seem to be enjoying it despite his objections so that’s probably something that doesn’t change even in [...]

  No. You shouldn’t have. Really. Impressions: I think this may be it for me. In the last three episodes, the most exciting thing has been Jun going fabric shopping with a golem sequestered in his backpack. Perhaps if they had something interesting in the preview to look forward to after the ‘cliffhanger’ of Spiderdoll [...]

Banpresto's 1kuji lottery is flaunting a line-up of Rozen Maiden chibi figures - carefully sculpted artifacts of cuteness that do justice towards the characters they're based on whilst making great use of chibi.

Not exactly the ideal place to wake up in. …Dolls are creepy, aren’t they. I honestly don’t remember Rozen Maiden being this creepy, and everything that happened here happened in the manga as well. Oh well, the darkness is making this interesting. So Jun has a fairly good reason for not going to school when [...]

So future Jun finally managed to finish Shinku through the power of friendship and believing. Of course, this came with a flashback of the reason Jun became a shut-in in the first place. Weakling can’t handle basic grade school teasing…what a wimp. What kind of main character are you making me watch? Anyway, next episode [...]

Have to say I really don’t mind that the series is taking its time in building things up here. This was a good episode in order to gain insights about Jun and why he was a shut-in originally. Unfortunately, seems his suffering came mostly because of how his interests were treated by his classmates. Probably [...]

Rozen Maiden rides off on a separate tangent once again, but the series twines together these otherwise far off events into one synthesized and concise situation - so much, all for simply the third episode.

「TALE 3」 Shinku has always been my favorite doll - hands down. There aren't that many anime characters out there (especially girls) that I have a crush on, but Shinku is definitely one of them.
