What really stands out about this series is its focus on family. It's not only cute and heartwarming, but it has some of the most interesting characters I've seen in a long time. Sure, it has the whole star-crossed lovers vibe, but the robot people are really weird. We've got magic vs technology, treeships, dead babysitters, and scorned women. Beyond the strangeness is a very solid story with pathos. It looks like I'm going to have to pick up Y's after these are done. I'm a fan.
