Hakumei to Mikochi is a beautiful anime. At first the the story begins in a mild soft manner, however suddenly dynamic actions scenes are thrown in with a splash of drama. It gives you the feeling that we were dropped in the middle of an already developed set of characters without wasting too much time on backstory. The art that stood out were the background, landscape, and cityscape moments. There wasn't much to music other that to accompany the storyline which was okay. Overall it is a not overly cute, provides a great get way feeling and is over too quickly.
Note: Both english dubbed and subbed provide equal quality. Choices of voice actors blended well and did not distract from story line !
Would recommend to children/family
