GTFO. "about living to achieve your dreams and never giving up", okay, if you enjoy it, don't talk about it. I'm not sure, is that the definition of a "chick flick"?
Why don't you watch the fucking show and see why everyone who's ever seen it loves it, it goes between being absolutely hilarious to being heartbreaking and it's a good series. However, it was originally a shoujo anime, and a mahou shoujo at that; but its subject matter and the events that take place make it transcend that. I wouldn't plop a six-year-old girl in front of a TV program where the main conflict is that the main character is FUCKING VISIBLY DYING OF WORSENING THROAT CANCER over the course of the 52 episodes

Melodrama as currently used is a mildly pejorative word in literary and other sorts of criticism, meaning a drama primarily characterised by sensational plots and blatant emotional appeals to conventional sentiment, but which is typically distinguished from tragedy by often having a happy ending. When melodrama is used in the pejorative sense, it is usually because the critic feels that the sensationalism of the plot lacks realism, or that the characters are stock heroes and villains with little room for characterization. Melodrama is ubiquitous on television: it is evident, for example, in a long series of TV movies about diseases or domestic violence, or the large number of hour-long television programs about lawyers, police officers, or physicians.

>>30 But I don't feel like downloading a huge ass anime torrent.
Mostly because my PC has been acting gay ever since I installed Windows XP Service Pack 2. Programs don't show up on the start bar, I have no sound, can't copy and paste, etc etc etc. ;_;
