Ginban Kaleidoscope is Love

If I’m correct, it was in 2005 that Ginban Kaleidoscope was born. This means that I’m less than three years behind knowledge of this fantastic anime. Poor me! Haha! Well, if I remember correctly again, it’s not entirely my fault as in the country where I live, it was only last year 2007 that a certain anime channel decided to air it for anime lovers like myself to enjoy. So yeah, there goes my story of why I hadn’t known it sooner than 2007. Oh well.
For the sake of those who haven’t heard of it yet (though I seriously doubt that), this anime revolves around the story of Sakurano Tazusa and Pete Pumps. Tazusa is a Japanese athlete for the sport of figure skating and considers herself a “10 billion dollar beauty.” Haha! On the other side of the world (literally), Pete Pumps is a Canadian ghost living inside Tazusa’s body. Haha! Okay, he’s only temporarily living in Tazusa’s body for 100 days and after which it’s up to Heaven for him. Pete is a 16-year old aviator in Canada whose job is to do stunts with a plane. This must be the reason why when the plane Pete was on crashed as he was doing his plane stunts, his spirit landed on Tazusa’s body who was at the same time also doing her figure skating program and fell on her butt (well, that was what the series suggested anyway). So there. The two poor creatures had to live with each other for 100 days.
Living with each other for 100 days, the two naturally quarreled at first, then grew to like each other, and as all fairytales end in happy ending, Pete and Tazusa grew to love each other. But no. This is no fairytale, they did love each other in the end but as they still live in two different worlds, they can never be together. Yeah, it has a sad ending. But then again, let’s not fret - It’s not about the destination but the journey that really counts. Even though the two did not end up together, at least they were given 100 days to be together to enjoy each other’s company. 
I haven’t actually finished this anime series yet with all the other things that I have to be busy with. But thanks to the spoilers that pop up once in a while, I was informed of the ending against my will. LOL! Anyway, it’s all good, the ending is quite obvious. But of course, I can’t help but feel sad. We all can’t, right? 
Okay, I’m off to watch some videos of Ginban Kaleidoscope in YouTube. I’m really loving this anime. I just hope the makers of Ginban Kaleidoscope decide to launch a season 2.
