Reviews
Petite Princess Yucie (2002) IMDb
Creators |
Anno Hideaki (supervising director). |
Categorization |
TV animation series. Romantic comedy, soft medieval fantasy, and magical girls, with the usual dual audience. Based on the Gainax-related Princess Maker games and produced by Gainax. |
Subject |
Single representatives of the human world, Hell, Heaven, the world of spirits and the world of fairies all compete in a special curriculum, to have a single wish granted through a sinister artefact. |
Commentary |
Visually uninteresting, stereotypical characters, predictable plot, mostly boring worldbuilding and little thematic connection to the parenting games. The few good jokes and slight variations on well-worn dynamics carry it, barely. |
