Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne is a magical girl anime series that aired on TV Asahi in 1999. The show is based on the manga series of the same name created by Arina Tanemura. The series follows the story of a high school student named Maron Kusakabe, who is a reincarnation of Joan of Arc. Maron is able to transform into the phantom thief Jeanne, who is tasked with stealing the evil spirits that inhabit artworks in order to prevent them from causing chaos in the world.

The series opens with Maron living with her aunt, who is a police officer. Maron attends a Catholic school where she is seen as the perfect student. However, she has a secret that nobody knows, except for her best friend, Miyako, who discovers her secret identity as Jeanne. Miyako becomes her ally and helps her in her quest to capture the evil spirits.

The show introduces a number of characters who are key players in Maron's life. Chiaki Nagoya is the son of a famous art collector and is also Maron's rival as he transforms into Sinbad, a phantom thief who tries to steal the same artwork as Jeanne. Another important character is Finnfish, the guardian angel who is assigned to protect Maron on her mission. Similarly, a detective named Koujiro is assigned to track Jeanne down and bring her to justice.

The show is a mix of romance, action, and comedy. One of the main themes of the show is the romantic tension between Maron and Chiaki, who are constantly at odds with each other as they try to capture the same artwork. As the series progresses, their relationship evolves, revealing a deeper connection between the two characters.

Another theme of Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne is the importance of forgiveness and redemption. Maron's character is tormented by her past, and her journey as Jeanne is her way of atoning for her sins. Through her actions, she shows that even the most flawed individuals can find redemption and become heroes.

The animation in Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne is beautiful and colorful, with a unique design that complements the magical girl theme. The show also features a number of catchy songs, including the opening and ending themes, which add to the upbeat and youthful energy of the series.

Overall, Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne is an enjoyable and heartwarming series that explores the themes of love, redemption, and forgiveness. The characters are well-developed, and the storyline is engaging, with enough action and comedy to keep the audience entertained. The show has become a beloved classic among anime fans, and its influence on the magical girl genre is still visible today.
