----------------------------------------
Well this is kinda of an interesting finale.

We got Zen as part of a public parade while Shirayuki continues her usual duties. Seems like she attracted the attention of another guy who wants her help. Wasn't the best episode of the season imo but still a nice transition episode. She is really starting to accept that sense of responsibility.

Plus, I think she looks cute in this dress XD


8/10. Quite an enjoyable show imo.
Can't wait for the second season!

A day to open for public. Looks like Carnival time. I'm glad that those three friends/guards are supporting the pair. Nobu's character gave what he won to her and told her to show the prince. She showed her hair when tending the actress (Kotobuki-san) who got hurt, and was asked to sub for her.

It seems like the troupe leader (Toriumi-san) tries to use her to become famous. The actress realized something's wrong, Nobu's character stopped him on time and the prince to the rescue. Mentioning of her grandparents who cared her before she became alone. Floating lanterns.

Special ED clip since it's the final ep. I cannot wait for next Winter for next cours.

Great adaptation of the manga. Kept me in it most of the time, except a couple of filler moments. Fantastic art, great set of chars and VAs, and a great twist to a classic fairytale. Had doubts especially after she ran away, but the story really developed quite nicely. Gave me a pleasant surprise.


This moment is <3~

With regards to the episode, was nice seeing Shirayuki in formal wear (albeit it being a costume), and nice bro moment with that hug after Zen announced he and Shirayuki are an item. Felt a small tinge of sadness when Obi gave her an hair ornament, coz i feel like his feelings aren't being returned, which is a waste...

Solid 8/10 overall from me, and will definitely keep an eye on S2. Glad it was announced early!!

Now for the wait until winter! Really nice show with beautiful fairytale moments, at parts a bit boring though which is why it's ''only'' a strong 7/10 for me.

Obi/Zen moments are awesome, always makes me laugh :D

Shirayuki is a beauty *__*

At first I didn't intend to even pick this up because shoujo series aren't really my thing but oh boy did I fall in love with this.

I really liked the art and the fairy tale-esque ost.

I want the second season already ;;;

Perfect ending to the romance anime of the season.
Shirayuki was a princess in the play and hopefully she'll become a real princess when Zen does marry her. S2 hype!

This was such a wholesome and consistent show from start to finish. Definitely one of the better shoujos. It was like a classical Disney fairy-tale story. The last 3-4 episodes have been all very strong.

So this is the final episode...? This anime just flew by so quickly. This ep. didn't feel like a final for the season, though, but it was alright. Lots of funny scenes. That part when Zen slapped Obi lol. Can't wait for season 2! XD

My thoughts about this final episode:

Okay that ending was sure a beautiful one. And I'm fine the way it ended.
Because of that, I'll rate this anime 7 (or 8?) out 10 score overall.
So I guess I need to go back reading the manga now?
Anyway let's wait till Winter Season, Next Year Gals! (and Guys)

I'm looking forward to the next season! One thing that disappointed me though was that Shirayuki and the others were only given 1-2 outfits throughout the whole show whereas in the manga, they are constantly wearing different outfits that are drawn beautifully. That was one of the reasons I loved reading the manga! The fine details of the outfits always amazed me and I always wondered why the mangaka wasn't working as a fashion designer.

It was a great ending, imo. Shirayuki looked beautiful in that dress and Zen was awesome in the play, very gallant. :p

I feel a bit bad for Obi since it seems he likes her.

The balloons in the end was nice. All in all, great show. Hope it gets a new season. Either way, I'm of to reading the manga. :D

I feel like the previous episode felt like a season finale more than this episode, but this was still a nice finale. A nice, refreshing, and relaxing series to watch, especially since a lot of the things I picked up this season had their fair share of violence. 7/10, can't wait for season 2.

Really liked in the beginning,but lost me during the second half when Izana appeared and the side character's backstories started so had to lowered to a 6/10.


Izana was actually a very cool sidechar, definitely not something to reduce the grade for. The whole birds as messengers thing was very nicely executed and there was some appropriate tension, well executed again.


Beautiful and enjoyable show. 8/10 overall, can't fucking wait for S2.

Despite Shoujo not being my thing, the show was decent. The characters were all pretty good though I did have gripes with the show as it was just boring a lot of the time and was pretty cheesy too. 6/10

I would take this ending but the fact its getting a second season is pretty cool. I'll stick around to see what else this series has to offer as it did have its moments of excitement.

Seeing the lanterns flying up, as beautiful as it was, I couldn't help but to think of the littering (and the lottery of a fire).

The little swap of roles by the play was nice to see. This was quite the enjoyable series, but I sort of want something to happen, though seeing Shirayuki and Zen together is already a pretty big thing.

8/10 for being enjoyable, looking forward to 2016.

Gorgeous setting and visuals but I found the characters to be on the dull side and thus I couldn't even bring myself to care about their romance.

Season 2 might change that but i'm not even gracing it with my presence.

it ends and we know little to nothing about most of these characters... meh

this where a split-cour is both helping and hurting a show imo
helping because you know they'll be more content so characters will likely be expanded upon
but hurting because that pause between content gives me less reasons to keep wanting to hang on until the end

Good show, but I felt we could have gotten to know more about some of these characters than we actually have. Still, there's always the second cour for that in winter. The romance was handled well, and I'm sure it will only get stronger in the second cour.

I have this love/hate relationship with the show.
As the characters are beautifully tied,I did not enjoy it as much as others did I guess.
I rate it 6/10.
I shall watch the 2nd season as well, which would have some drama I think, an enjoyable series I guess.
Plus when Zen put on the the mask I remembered prince Hermes from Arslan Senki lmao.

This will probably be my highest rated show of 2015 ( if we exclude certain sequels ). There is literally nothing sweeter and more heartwarming than this show, only rivaled by Barakamon and Chihayafuru. I find it impossible to dislike any aspect of the show, every single thing the show does emanates most positive emotions. The chemistry and relationship build up between Shirayuki and Zen is really otp worthy. It was biggest joy to lay down and watch this in evenings.

Can't give it any less than 9/10 as it's so close to being perfect.

This anime. Just wow. It ultimately ended up being my favorite from this season (not counting the sequels) I just loved the chemistry between Shirayuki and pretty much everyone esp. Zen and Obi. I wanted more of Kiki/Shirayuki friendship moments though, but oh well. Maybe we will get those in S2.

All in all, a really sweet ending to a very sweet anime. Really, it couldn't be better than this. And I prefer it ending on this episode, not the previous one even if it could end up on that one.

I don't know how to rate it. It was beautiful both visually and sound-wise esp. the ED song was among my favorites from this season. As I rated both Gate and Rokka no Yuusha 9/10, but find this worthy of a higher score... which means it can only be 10/10. Okay, tbh its something like 9.5/10 for me, so I guess I can give it that score. All in all, great anime which remained promising from start to end. And SHIRAYUKI IS A BOSS PRINCESS WAIFU <3

IIRC, the whole stageplay part and the flying lamps were anime original fillers, but it was sweet and fit well into the plot, so I did not mind it.
