| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- And so it ends. Sort of strange, a human to have a relationship with a doll...but whatever. A nice end :3 |
 |
| Actually, I hated this anime in the start, and I had no plan to watch the second season. However, the characters seemed to have grown on me and I just might watch the second season now. I hate Suigintou in the beginning, but the ending withdrew some of my sympathy. Who would have thought that I would enjoy an anime about talking dolls with magical powers? |
Nyaa~ |
| I mostly just like this anime for the awesome characters, but the whole doll human relationship is weird yo. |
 |
| He is going back to school , and the scenery which his uniform was shown , that reminded me of something ~ Anyway the ending was good. |
  |
| Good episode, good series! One thing I really didn't like in the series was how Suigintou was always the total evil without signs of good. A total one-sided character. It would be nicer if she would had shown some "good" emotions during the series. Would have maken her "death" sadder, better and more emotional. Cool is how the relationship between Shinku and Jun ended. Like a real strong friendship. In many other animes I complain "Why aren't they a couple now in the end?" but here it would be probably just strange to most, if they became a couple^^ so, exceptionally, this relationship fits here perfectly^^ I'm satisfied^^ I'm giving the series a 8/10 with a plus. It would be a 9 if there where more episodes like the 5th one!^^ |

I didn't like her, either, but she became more sympathetic after this episode when you see that she was broken and trying to compensate for it. hobbiteen said: Who would have thought that I would enjoy an anime about talking dolls with magical powers? Yeah I was half expecting to hate this series and just watching for novelty but I wound up really liking it, a lot. |
 |
| Suigintou is an incomplete doll but she's so powerful despite being incomplete lol.. Strange.. >.> Like the others, I also watch this anime without expecting much but after finishing it, it's actually pretty good~ Anyway.. on to Träumend now.. |
      |
| One of the worst anime i've ever seen |
| I kept expecting Jun to repair Suigintou for some reason. was a good series overall, but my favorite episode was the filler episode with the strawberry cake war ; ) |
| whatever floats juns boat :/ |
 |
| Nice ending , really felt sad for Suingitou , she was so damn awesome TwT |
| A really good series despite the human and doll fetish. Though, Jun and Shinku's relationship was pretty interesting and watching its development was fun. Discovering Suigintou's flaw like that made me sympathetic. I never realized how much she loved her creator, or Father. I will continue on with Träumend. |
| burn bitch burn! ;o a walk? why don't he just go back to school damm |

| Well... the characters of this anime are interesting, but the plot is rather plain. And boring. And shoujo. Despite all that, I'm going to watch 2nd season.. Suigintou couldn't die so easily=)) |
| I enjoyed it from beginning to end but really enjoyed last 2. At first I was a little weirded out by the love/fetish (which ever you see it as) on episode 10 with Shinku waiting with Jun for laundry, but last 2 made it seem really made it seem really sweet and I hate to say but I was rooting for them~ 8.5/10 for season in general, and looking forward to season 2 ^^ |
 |
| OMG HOW CUTE! i almost cried cuz i thought they were gone forever X{ but yay there not! omg poor Suigintou! i always didnt like her but now i know why she was like that and i cant help but feel sorry for her! hmm oh yeah and im glad Shinu got her arm back! it was so sad but cute when she cried saying it was all right. . . that house was cute. . . oh and i loved the end! He went outside and changed his clothes! YAY! lol haha and it was so funny how Suiseiseki wanted to run away then Kun-Kun was on and everything was normal X3 hmm... Jun is really strong! Im glad he over came his fear and made it past the river of memories. . . and what i dont get is. . . how is it that Suigintou was the first doll made and yet she was the only one uncompleted? maybe she was so far off. . . wait then why did he go away? idk its weird... anyway i LOVED the anime! it was so cute funny and amazing! i cant wait for more =D WOOT! |
 |
| Really thought I was gonna hate this one, but in the end i must say it was, for me, highly entertaining. It may be weird for a boy to, well, love a doll, but there is weirder stuff out there, so I just kinda ignored she was a doll. Especially the last episode was great imo, however they did ruin a few moments, like when Suigintou was destroyed... I seriously was sad, because even if she never really had depth just the last few seconds made up for that. BUT THEN they f-ing had to explain that? Why? That was so unnecessary! Well, overall I really liked this show, 8/10, and I'm definitely gonna watch season 2. |
| The ending suits the series well. |
| I almost cried. |
| The ending was great. And they continue happily ever after. I love Shinku |
| Finish watching this on 14th February 00:30 ( in my time). Very Romantic indeed. This series( expecially the final) taught me lots of thing. After finished part 1, I learn something important in this moment... -What would you feel, if you see a part which you never see from someone you know? Jun just show me how to keep believe and stay( with Shinku) When part 2 almost done, Peach-Pit show that bad person also has good side even love. When they use their love to hurt people, it's the way to embrace their feeling. Fi-na-le Rozen Maiden not only teach and show me beautiful things. It also give me something that I desire to... 'laught'. Now I can laught freely without any weight.

| There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.  Use Personal Blacklist extension in Chrome if you just want to Google for a series synopsis, without google slapping MAL score in it. 3/1 |
| I was hoping that jun will help suigintou too since he have the magical ability to sew. Well nice ending I enjoyed the whole episodes, hina-chan is my most fav. ^^ can't wait to see her in Rozen Maiden: Träumend |
| It was good. I wonder what season 2 will bring. Also, I don't get how desu became a meme. It was cute but I don't get why it became popular. |
| That punch. Wow. I would like to see an Alice Game that's actually played by more than one doll, like games should be played. This season was very reminiscent of the F/sn anime -- that is, more boring than it should've been given the concept. Still, I love all five dolls so far and will watch Traumend just to see more of them and meet the other two. |
| well... i went into this anime not knowing much, and not expecting much i guess overall I was more pleased than I was disappointed but it was still mediocre for me, a 6 is a fair judgement. I loved Hina and her cuteness, even grew to like Shinku and Jin... (although their relationship is just weird and that put me off) the ending felt a tad rushed, and not as 'epic' as i thought it would be. But I did like the original concept, and most of the characters so I will watch the second series eventually just to see if it improves. |
| Could have been better. The art was decent, comedy value was decent, but I felt bad for Suigintou. 7/10 |
 |
| 8/10 Liked almost every minute of it |
 |
| 7/10 Good series but could've been better. |
 |
| I like how instead of just being an arrogant little brat, like most of the aristocrat/vampire/deities that appear in most other anime, Shinku actually acts high-class. It's nice when a character actually walks the walk instead of just running their mouth. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| Shinku actually was hella kawaii in this episode when she was crying and after the battle with Sugintou. I like Sugintou's tenacity however despite she was the bad guy...well misunderstood. |
Korrvo said: I like lolis. I don't like them sexually. It's hard to not like lolis, their cuteness pander to the same emotions that naturally makes us fathers. But it's hard to get off to anything that doesn't have any adult women characteristics like large tits, ass, and thighs. http://imgur.com/qgjKHGn |
| Suiseiseki nyasha desu. |
| Honestly, I was quite weirded out by the whole human-doll relationship when I first started watching but I gotta say... the characters have really grown on me. ^^ Even Hina Ichigo, whom I couldn't stand in some episodes. By that end scene with them all back together, I truly realized just how much I'd grown to like them. A touching finish to the first season. ^^ |
 |
| First of all, I freaking love Jun's character development throughout the series, that made the series for me, not Shinku, not Hina Ichigo, not Suiseiseki, not Souseiseki, not Suigintou, not Tomoe, not the sister, but Jun. First half of this episode was.. not sure what to think about it, maybe because I don't like battles in this show? It was okay, but kinda cliche? Sudden power up? How did Suiseiseki and Souseiseki get back their powers? Second half was awesome. The bond between Shinku and Jun, how Jun has grown in these 12 episodes, loved that he went out of his house by his own will, and will never hide anymore >hope he goes to school though< And his chemistry with Shinku/Tomoe. Jun's relationship with Shinku is fine as it is, hopefully it won't become something romantic, as for Tomoe, sure would like it if it becomes something romantic :) Hmm enough of that! Head to season 2! :) Edit: Why the hell those dolls are so obsessed with becoming the "Alice"? That's one thing I cannot understand. Because they love their "father"? Hmm I am not convinced. Edit 2: BGM is da best. It was so fitting when it was played near the end there. <3 Edit 3: I feel bad for Suigintou. Hopefully Jun is able to "fix" her, and pull her to his side. :p |

| I thought this was a pretty good anime. I felt bad for Suigintou at the end. Was it impossible for Shinku to save her, or did she choose to. Anyways, I liked this anime, and, since I'm generous, I'll give it a 10 out of 10 desu. |
| "The will to live is stronger than anything else" |
| Whoa, this is very underrated anime. Such a good and interesting anime. No wonder they get season 2. |
| 5/5 Everyone can learn something and benefit from others, in short the history of the soul, but also a hymn to not stop and get back into redoing the way back to start again. Very simple plot but who knew how to inspire these thoughts in me, still has a lot to say and there is the potential to do, now I just have to start the second season, to know! : D Narrative has not disfigured, with light moments alternated with more serious situations. The characters are distinct and although not all are characterized in the same way, they still have a chance to grow in the future. Cute designs, maybe the animations are affected by the weather! For now I can give as a final grade 7/10 waiting to see the next season. |

| The story was a cliffhanger but this anime is awesome i look forward on rewatching it on the 2013 version... |
 |
| That moment when Shinku breaks down. Aww. It'll be alright. You're not junk! Another good fight. I didn't feel bad for Suigintou until the end. Great episode! TIme to watch the next season! |
| This anime feels like a fairytale. I don't know what gives me that feeling. Probably the whole doll theory: waking up from some deep sleep, trying to become Alice, seeking for Father. It all looks strange to me, still 7/10. By the way I'm scared of dolls brr |
| Really enjoyed that ending! I'm glad that Shinku and the others didn't actually have to leave! I'll be honest, I was actually really sad to see Suigintou be incinerated like that. Not that I was rooting for the bad guy, but more so that she was an unfinished doll that wanted her father's love and tragically died because she went crazy to be accepted (but did Shinku take her Rosa Mystica???) And yeah, I agree with Suingintou that how the other dolls besides Shinku and herself have pathetic fighting skills. She took down the other 3 easily :p I wasn't sure whether to give this show a 7 or an 8, but the last 2 episodes definitely bumped it up to an 8. Good story, good comedy, fun characters, soundtrack wasn't bad (the OP is pretty catchy!). Although the main issue I had was that it has an action genre but THIS ISN'T AN ACTION SHOW. There are plenty of shows (yuki yuna is a hero and magic knight rayearth (just to name a few)) that have waaaaaay more action than this but aren't action genres. I was expecting more doll fights! D: Overall I'm glad I watched Rozen Maiden. Not sure why I waiting so long to watch it though :p off to season 2! |

| This series is better if you give it some time. At first I thought it would be suck, but after episode 3, it got interesting. When then off I go for second season. Went from 6/10 to 8/10. |
 |
| I feel like a moron for watching 2013 version before the original anime. Well, at least now everything makes sense. At first I thought that I am going to dislike Jun, but he is actually a pretty strong male lead, I can even relate to him. |
| Oh god, I really didn't like this. At all. |

| Good brawl, shame they ruined the mood at the end by having the girls return. Gonna be mad if Jun isn't back to school next season. |
