There isn't much romance in the narrative unless you use your imagination as I did, since I liked the thought of Leon and Sora being more than simply acrobat partners. What surprised me the most was that I kept watching Kaleido Star despite the fact that I seldom watch anime sans romance. It was just that delicious! However, I would like to point out that although there is no romance in the story, it does have some heartwarming moments between friends. Also, Kaleido Star has many cute scenes especially between the main characters which I found myself laughing at sometimes. I would recommend this show to anyone who is looking for a fun and exciting time at the theater!
