What is a “ReView” episode, you might ask? Well, it’s my highly-clever (ok not really) title for episodes where I go back and watch an older title I haven’t seen in a long time, and see if what I remember (and what my opinions on it) are still the same now that some time’s gone by. While some of you are enjoying your shiny new Magic Knight Rayearth blurays, what better time to revisit the other Rayearth? That’s right, it’s the 1997 Rayearth OAV!
