Ahh...Sugar Sugar Rune is probably one of the best anime I have ever watched partly because it is such an enjoyable anime.
I love ALL the characters especially Chocolat and not to mention, the ever so sexy Pierre with his sexy chants (Don't you think he sounds so omfg hot whenever he casts his magic spells?) I thought that the animation and artwork was OUTSTANDING. Seriously, in this anime, I noticed they use less chibi art and express more emotions in the characters faces and that's what I love about it.
I LOVED how deep the story is and how Chocolat seems to think more than she acts - making me think that she's a really brave and mature girl who's not afraid to act what she thinks.
The friendship between Chocolat and Vanilla is SO real that it sometimes brings tears to my eyes when I see them fighting. Sometimes, I really do envy their relationship - that's how REAL their friendship is.
As for Pierre - he is my absolute favourite. I loved him. Why isn't there a guy like Pierre? Pierre's dark, deep and mysterious which explains why I love him.
I like watching how his feelings for Chocolat grow - slowly...and eventually so strong that he's willing to....*watch the anime to get it* ^_^
Even though these girls are just 10 year olds, they definitely do not act or think the way a 10 year old think. Makes me wonder why was I playing with Barbie when I was a 10 year old -_-
The characters' sound perfectly fitted the roles of the characters. I love it. The person who played Pierre had a very sexy and deep voice - exactly like how Pierre is.
As for Chocolat - very cute and angry sounding :P As for Vanilla, KAWAII ne!
Let's not forget the supporting characters, the familiars, Duke and Bianca - ONE WORD. FUNNY.
I love how Duke goes kero and Bianca goes chu chu - it's so so cute! Waffle is a great addition to the story as well as she makes the whole story less serious and funny.
Robin is wonderful as well. Cinnamon is very special looking and somewhat attracts me a lot.
Although the anime is WAY different than the manga, I can honestly say that I would prefer the anime because of it's striking colour and fantastic animation. Although I'd prefer people to read the manga to get the REAL story of the battle between the Ogres and the magical world. Very deep - in the manga, less deep in the anime.
Overall, the storyline is good - I mean hell!! What a creative and original storyline if you ask me. The characters - are beautiful and different. Sigh. I just adore Pierre. Do excuse me. :3
I'd recommend EVERYBODY to watch it because I seriously tear up in most of the episodes. You HAVE got to love Chocolat. Love the way she thinks and how strong she is. Makes me admire her a lot.
SUGAR SUGAR RUNE FTW!
