The original anime aired in 2001 with one season of 26 episodes. After over 18 years, the series came back in 2019 as a 25 episode reboot series. The reboot also brought back all the original English voice cast.
Natsuki Takaya created the series’ source manga, published from 1998 to 2006. Because so much time had passed, Takaya said she “cried every time I confirmed a script”.
