The story was good but, sometimes the dialogue felt abrupt and unfitting of the situation (like when you're being understanding of someones problem and then responding very short); the pacing was about right though and it didn't drag on. Visually good, characters/costumes are really good. Animation was generally pretty poor, occasionally it was quite good though like the Jess/Ally scene. It felt a bit odd when you bought all the clothes for Maria and then only got to see 2 outfits then, later she was asked to only do housework naked but from then on always wore the full maid outfit.
