Angelic Layer is an action anime program based on a manga published by Kadokawa Shoten starting in 1999. While most works by CLAMP are in the shōjo (girl's) genre, Angelic Layer is actually a shōnen (boy's) story in the vein of competition-based series like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokémon.
The series follows the adventures of a young girl named Misaki Suzuhara, who has just moved to Tokyo to attend junior high school. On her arrival, she becomes interested in Angelic Layer, a game where mechanical dolls controlled by the will of their owner do battle in popular tournaments. Misaki moves her way up through the ranks, spurred on by her school friends and an eccentric man named Icchan, who unbeknownst to Misaki is the creator of the Angelic Layer system. Along the way Misaki earns the respect of her competitors and learns the truth about her family's connection to Angelic Layer.
