Verily, a cursed nobleman did seek aid from a greater power, this time a witch, fair and beautiful, dwelling in a tower bathed in the silver light of the moon. Those who conquered this tower were granted a single wish. The cursed nobleman conquer the task, and the fair witch, upon seeing his success, did ask, "What is thy wish?"
To this, the nobleman replied, "Pray, lift this wretched curse from me, that I may be able to sire offspring." The witch, in her wisdom, replied, "Thy curse seems too burdensome to undo in an instant. Only a strong woman may bear thy child."
The nobleman then inquired, "Would thee perish if thou bear my child?" To which the witch replied, "Nay,i'd get pregnant ." Thus began the nobleman's journey, seeking to rid himself of his curse or to win the heart of the fair witch.
"Unnamed Memory" is a slow-burn romance fantasy action that succeeds in not becoming boring. It doesn't feature overpowered characters, just strong ones who can get hurt, be tricked, and even have their mana sucked while having a wet dream.
The series also manages to portray that the stiff and flat-faced prince doesn't always have to be an arrogant and unfeeling bastard. In every episode, he's eager to marry the heroine despite several rejections.
Moreover, it demonstrates that immortal strong characters don't always have to be stiff, boring, and pessimistic creatures. The witch is friendly and actually acts like a human being; she can blush, get mad, feel sorry, and perhaps even fall in love.
The animation is decent, the fight scenes are well-animated, and the opening song is beautiful.
Overall, if you enjoy fantasy romance slow burns and also enjoy crying yourself to sleep knowing that you can never have an immortal witch wife, give this one a try.
