Every child has an egg in their heart, unseen at first, an egg with the would-be self of their dreams. Hinamori Amu, part of a group called the Guardians, protect those eggs from becoming x-eggs, eggs filled with resentment and resignation that gives children troubles. Amu's job is to capture and restore x-eggs to their orginal form. She does this with the help of her three Shugo Chara (guardian characters or her would be selves), Ran, Miki and Su. Thanks to them she can change her character and abilities, and so fight against the mysterious organization Easter which aim is to find a special egg called Embryo using the x-eggs.

My friends had been bugging me to watch this anime for ages apparently it was the most popular anime among the girls in Japan. It wasn't too bad probably for a younger audience but I was vaguely reminded of Cardcaptor Sakura while watching it.
The story is structured well for a children's anime no major dark plot twists, coarse language was at a minimum and the animation itself was brightly coloured. Also the age of the characters helped to relate to make it easier to relate to its younger targeted audience.

It gets a bit repetitive in terms of episode structures. Similar to Cardcaptor Sakura it has a mysterious bad guy out to obtain a powerful item that the good guys are naturally after as well. A problem occurs that brings out a certain "monster" (In this anime that's the X eggs) that the main character must defeat. Guess you could say after 51 episodes of the same thing it does get a bit boring watching the whole season in one go not to mention that more transformation scenes take forever and the finishing move used in every episode was a bit irritating.
Its a great anime to watch over a long period of time not something I'd suggest you to watch in one whole session. It is more designed for the younger female audience so guys may not like it (some might like it). For those into the romance, school life or magic genre you may also be interested in it. If you enjoyed this anime there is also the manga and second season as well.
Other works done by Peach-Pit are Rozen Maiden, Zombie-Loan and DearS. (show less)
Wish I'd found a stray cat as hawt as Ikuto... I'd chain him, bound his wounds and make him lick me Nya! Nya >////<

this is an anime for people that go for the kid-ish type... it is a cute story but it does get repetitive and borring. but because the stoy is so long you start to enjoy the characters (btw theres another 2 seasons) so this may not be the anime for you but... i guess i enjoyed it
The story plot is really lame and rather kid-dish. But, the animation is good and is out for a good laughter. I especially like the romance part! Support Ikuto-Amu pair!! Hooray!!

not that much into magical girl stuff! but i like the fact that the protagonist is a cool character but actually wants to be girly and cute.
