Shirayuki Hime no Densetsu (original) (raw)

Sep 25, 2016

This is a tale about Snowhite and the 7 Dwarves, one of the most well-known fairy tales.However, the story is enriched in a way that the story goes beyond its standard facts.
The art ,considering the time this anime was made and shown, is very good.The landscapes, the light and the whole kingdom are skillfully illustrated.The faces of the characters are simply beautiful , especially Snow White's.
As for the sound, I enjoyed the opening and the ending theme very much. Every moment in each episode was presented correctly, as far as suitable music is concerned.
The characters... were interesting.The queen was evil enough and princess Snowhite is a girl who helps and cares for eveyone, but the most important thing is that when there is great danger, she has courage and she does whatever she can within her power to make things right.There is no exaggeration to her words and moves,it is accurately shown how a young and beautiful princess should be.For example, she lives with the dwarves and helps them as much as she can and she tries not to depend on them for eveyrthing.All the characters are interesting and nice,from the funny and caring dwarves to the brave prince and Snowhite's cute pets.
What I really liked in this anime was that many magical creatures are shown during Snowhite's adventures as well as human characters. They play an important role to the story or try to relax the viewer from the stress of the main situation.Because of the fact that this anime is adressed mainly to children, it succeeds very well in showing the true nature of good and evil ,which is very important.
To sum up I enjoyed watching this anime,as it is a pleasant childhood treasure and I recommend it to anyone who loves fairy tales.I'll never get tired of it.
