The company, owned by an amusing little dog-like creature named Aria,

The sneak peek is interesting to read, but I'm not sure if Aria being a cat would appreciate this line I quoted above. All I will say is this. Aria has occasional rough spots (for lack of a better term), but just keeps getting better with each season. With the final season more or less making everything worth it.

That Akari and Aika wear sailor uniforms would be a problem if they were kept normal

Not really. Given they pilot boats, any type of sailor costume (that is a normal uniform look) would be OK.

If they were typical schoolgirl sailor outfits, it would be a problem. They'd look out of place in this kind of setting and story.

If you enjoyed the first episode, it's more than likely you'll enjoy the rest of the series.

It continues on in much the same vein, for the most part, for the entire run.

Relaxing is the word to describe it best. After having a stressful day, an episode of Aria is just the sort of relief you need.

Perhaps, but sometimes I wonder if that can backfire. Ie you start thinking things like how bad your life is in comparison and that will never be even 1/10 this pleasant. Or maybe it will remind you of good times that will never come back. Yeah I know saying stuff like this in Aria thread is kind of out of place, but it is something to consider.

Aria is like a good dream. The type you don't want to wake from, because its reality is where you want to be, & stay.
In fact its better than a dream, because you can go back at any point. I hope there will be a 4th season, & 5th, 6th, 7th....
