what a cute story. if ya dont know what its about then.... it says on the front thing. i loved the dresses that the fairy chick wore throughout the episodes. if you are into fairy and magic and mystery then this a a good anime for you. it has a bit of violence and may show a little blood. but that wouldnt hurt! XD main charater Lydia is an innocent fairy docter who is always trying to argue with some guy who is like madly in love with her. ummm... anyways thats not really the storyline...its way more complicated than that but still. <3

This anime was a fun distraction. I liked the story, the characters, and the setting. However, it was obvious that this was an adaptation of one part of of a larger work. The series ends by closing the story arc covered in the anime. However, many questions about the larger plot are left unanswered and there's not a lot of closure. Despite this I'd still recommend it as it was entertaining and a little different.

I enjoyed this anime. It's definitely for the female audience: there's lots of romance, the heroine is very feminine, every guy is a bishounen. The characters actually make me hesitate to call it an excellent romance anime: Lydia is annoying at times, very conservative, always ready to doubt, and constantly referring to herself as a 'fairy doctor', which I think is an overused term. Edgar meanwhile though he later professes to love Lydia at one point appears to try to kill her, and really, if someone has ever plotted to kill you, could you really (read more)

Some of the magic can be funny: I like the selkie best.
So, if you go into it not being too critical and accept the plot twists and characterizations as they are, it's a good anime to watch. (show less)
Since i am already a fan of anything Victorian-ish or Faye-ish, I loved this mini series. It combined a Victorian setting with your Roguish, mysterious, handsome guy, and shy, sheltered girl, and (what could have been if it the story hadnt been so smushed) an epic tale. The story tangles up everything from Brownies to Sylphs to the much scarier faye types... I have to say I'd be much happier with it if there were about 50 more episodes :P ..... If you dig the story at all, look up the "light book" series that this is loosely based on - and you (read more)

(Its also quite a bit darker , be warned!) (show less)
if you're looking for something to watch to pass time, then...this would be a great anime to watch...that is if you like the fantasy stuff..coz it's all about the little creatures that the lead girl sees that a normal person usually doesn't..therefore...she was called a doctor...not that she can do anything...she is just able to see...what makes this anime nice is the lead guy...you don't really know if he's the right one but if he isn't the correct one...he'd make sure he becomes THE ONE..that my friend is determination...and his inconsistent ways (read more)
