Comment: I like this movie. It has pretty art and the songs are great.
There's a part that bothered me though: a scene VERY MUCH similar to 'Beauty and the Beast' from Disney. Even Belle's movements are like the Belle's from Disney and I kept thinking "omg, that's distracting bc I can't stop thinking of Disney" haha

I'm going to tell why I gave 7.0 to this anime.
The art is great and that's the main reason I decided to watch it, but the story full of gaps.
This anime has 13 eps. and two of them were fillers. How? HOW?? How come they added fillers on a 13 episode anime? I don't get it.
I think it was ep. 8 or 9(the filler one), I skipped. And half of the last ep. was filler too.
The final ep. was annoying. It didn't explain a lot of things.
If you watched this anime, tell me your thoughts.

*Sorry about my English

Refusing his orders, she cuts her hair and leaves it behind as part of what he wanted and escapes to the neighboring kingdom of Clarines. On her way there, she meets and befriends Prince Zen and his two aides Mitsuhide and Kiki.

It's been a while since I wanted to watch Akagami no Shirayuki-hime and I don't regret watching it.
There're 2 seasons and a OVA.
AkaHime is a typical shoujo anime. There are some romance, some action, the girl who likes the prince and bad guys kidnapping the girl.
If I were to compare AkaHime to another anime it'd be Akatsuki no Yona.
My favorite charas were Obi and Mitsuhide.
Especially Obi. He's precious *3* love him so much. I even added him on my bias list xD
The anime has funny parts too. Especially in the 2nd season between Mitsuhide and Kiki, and Mitsuhide and Obi.
When Mitsuhide gets hypnotized by a drug Kiki's face was sooo funny xDDD
And the ep. where they go to an inn bc of the rain, Obi and Zen are taking a bath... this part was funny too.
I really recommend this anime :) if you like romance and shoujo.

Scored: 8.0(both seasons)
