La Princesse & la Bête

Now this is a fantastic anime! This is how classic anime used to be and how new anime should continue to be!

The plots were great and carried out well!

The visuals were solid!

The characters were absolutely fantastic!

I mean if you want anime this is the best anime I have seen in decades! I mean this brought back nostalgia from 1980's anime that I used to watch!

They ran through the plots so smoothly that it was constantly pleasant yet had to on the edge of your seat. If it wasn't action packed it was so emotionally invested that you understood even the opposing characters! Now that is a huge accomplishment!

Love, love, loved this! What an amazing anime, one of my absolute top favourites. The plot twists are intriguing and well thought out, Sari and the King are such amazing characters in their own right, and are surrounded by wonderful people as well. It is also one of the most unique animes I have ever watched. Not chliche in the slightest which was nice. I'm only sad that it's over, but if you weren't sure whether to watch this or not, watch it. You will not regret it.

They give each character they introduce such depth, making you feel and fall in love with the characters more and more. You feel their sadness, remorse and happiness.

It is considered in my opinion to be the best knockoff/homage to the classic fairy tale or Jean Cocteau's poetic realist fantasy film. This year, saw the airing of A Tale of Outcasts with a Jean Marais looking character. Now, there is a much more political and faithful reinterpretation with as much twists and turns as you could imagine. With the talented voices of Kana Hanazawa as Sariphi and Satoshi Hino as Leonhart, this story will captivate and amaze you. While examining the mature themes in this series it is one of the best shows that we need in a long time. The absolute best show of 2023.
