Fena: Pirate Princess

Saw the first four episodes, and must say I'm hooked. Great animation, wonderful and atmospheric scenery, and a good pace of introducing characters.

I definitely recommend this one to the fans of the sea adventure tales.

Ok, yes it is extremely beautiful and the plot has a lot of potential from the start but nearing the end the drama gets weak and the way they try to incorporate the supernatural is not the best.

I think that if they had just kept up how they started they could have made a show with multiple seasons and not this short drama that in the end feels more like a not too impressive movie.

I'd say this is a lot like the old classic 90's anime. Good story line, solid characters and simple comedy. You can't beat but as good as it is for me the ending fell short. It was a good ending! It just felt like there were a few episodes missing towards the end. Even though you get a great backstory for some very important characters.

The story line is very well thought out and not too overly detailed but detailed enough that you do have to pay attention. Doing that is not easy but I think that accomplished that here.

The comedy is very simple but put in the right places and makes it feel more like real one liners that you remember from way back when that fit the moment so well.

Overall this is a good beginner anime I think and I'm glad to see them making it!

It had so much more potential, rushed out the last 3-4 episodes. Could have built on the characters much more, needed more episodes. Gone from somehow real and mysterious to magical and mystical very fast. Felt in the ending just like Promised No Nederland, just wanted to tie it up no matter how. Was building up to be a greater anime I don't know why they are doing it this way recently!!
