THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The animation is pretty pathetic. Aside from that, Lydia is pretty, and it's weird hearing Yoshino Yuusuke as Count Ashenbert. I didn't really understand what they're searching for - something about fairies? At least, that guy with the gun in the beginning is searching for Lydia for some reason. I wonder which fansub groups will pick this up, if any, although I don't think this show will be that great.

I just saw this RAW. This is AMAZINGLY comparable to Allison and Lillia. Based on what I understood it is clear the seeting is Scotland/England. The main heroe is some sort of royalty that ned help from the a women named the fairy doctor Lidiya, who posses among skills the power to see other fairies or paranormal apparition and able to communiacte with animals upon we learn that it is a cat that is named Niko and the cat can also make himself invisble. SOMEONE PLEASE SUB THIS! IT LOOKS AS GOOD AS ALLISON TO LILLIA. HIGHLIGHTS: COOL GUN DESIGN! ![]() LIDIA IS KAWAIIII AND LIKE ALLISON EXCEPT MORE MATURE AND SUPERNATURAL POWERS AND LOVE THE TALKING CAT...GOOD IDEA. ![]() To all for information, this movement was the equivalent of kissing a lady on her hand just that some found uncomfortable so it was said that this method was less direct contact with the skin but still equivalent of respect and to a certain extent affection. ![]() Lidiya in another beautiful dress ![]() LOL....CAT DRINKING WHISKEY OR IS IT SCOTCH??? ![]() Oops! I appear to be incapable of following Rules 16 and 17, so I had to have a mod change my sig for me. |

Will admit the main reason for checking this out is the cast. I too watched the raw and tbh couldn't understand half of what Edgar was saying! XP The animation was a little sad, and art could be better, but I was surprised by the seemingly sinister character of Edgar, e.g. the 'torture' scene at the beginning and other 'just as planned' smile moments. Will probably make up my mind after seeing the first couple of subs... Oh and I preferred him with the dark auburn hair :P |

I was thinking the whole time that Edgar's voice reminded me of someone, so I looked at the actor's page and realized he did Zelgadis from Slayers (recently finished watching Slayers Revolution, so it's fresh in my mind). Anyway, I was unsure whether to answer 1 or 2 in the poll, but put 2 because it wasn't so bad that I'll drop it already, even though I spent a large portion of the episode being pissed. There were, like people said, some issues with the art. But what bothered me was Edgar. He looks and acts kind of like Tamaki Suoh from Ouran, except that he's violent, much more arrogant, shows fewer signs of caring about other people, and isn't endearingly idiotic/clumsy. I feel like he's being pitched to a certain kind of fangirl, with the sparkles, the looks, and the very staged 'rescues'. That kind of character (the arrogant male who assumes women will welcome his advances and keeps going in the face of clear rejection) is one of my pet peeves. |

Yeah actually I found out terrible that Lidiya had to PUSH HIM OFF cause he was going to like molest for a kiss or something like that....I don't like guys like him with girls. Let's HOPE EDGAR changes! Oops! I appear to be incapable of following Rules 16 and 17, so I had to have a mod change my sig for me. |

Animation is pretty much off and some character designs are nice, while others definitely aren't. Mizuki-sensei is doing a great job (as usual) and the rest of the male cast is nice as well. Banzai for picking out at least two nice seiya as Miyano Mamoru, but also Midorikawa Hikaru (Saiunkoku Monogatari, Code Geass R2). Don't really like the seiyu for Niko though... The music isn't really to my tastes as well. They probably spent all the money on the cast or something. Anyhow, liked the begin. Starting of with some action and explanation about fairies after that part. Kind of... weird. This promises some adventures, but I don't think it'll be in the top 5 of the autumn season. I feel like watching Heart no Kuni no Alice after watching this... Anyhow, will continue with this. Let's hope next episode has better animation, even if I fear that it won't be much better. 3/5. |

I don't think I've ever disliked a character by Midorikawa Hikaru this much lol But damn I hate that Edgar... Other than that, I liked it. |

OMG, I laughed so hard while watching this first episode. It's too shoujo for my taste, even though I love shoujo anime and manga. But the "bishounen sparkles" and other ridiculous sound effects were so funny. I think I'll keep watching this serie only for that (and also because of Tamaki's clone). XD |

Funny thing that encode (of m.3.3.w.) is already added to aniDB but still isn't on their website/tracker. |
