Although it is like any other shoujo style, each design is unique and rather fitting giving each character's unique persona. In comparison to the manga, it actually has adapted all of the character designs quite nicely and all of the scenes have at least done justice to or provided some improvement on their counterpart. In regards to the animation, the color palette is vibrant and charming. It's the same old setup, but delivered in a way that can still rouse some amusement because the way everything plays out seems bland at first but the spice of the characters bring it some flavor.
#WOLF GIRL AND BLACK PRINCE EPISODE 6 ENGLISH DUB SERIES#
They carry the series where the plot might otherwise flop for not being terribly thought provoking or entertaining. What pulls it off in a unique way is the characters that are seemingly cliche but vary quite drastically from any traditional leads in a romance series. But for their part in the series, they did contribute to the development of the main couple and to the overall humor of their antics.įor the part of the plot, there is nothing original in the least-it is the traditional shoujo setup from the beginning until the end. That is a disappointing fact about the series, which was limited in how much screen time it could offer them given its short runtime. The supporting cast is entertaining albeit peripheral, and they receive minimal attention or development. Being cynical and misanthropic seems to run in the family. His behavior is not entirely without cause, given the influence of his older sister. But the series doesn't try too hard to redeem him-he has no sad backstory to fall on, as he says himself. He is, quite frankly, a jerk to Erika constantly and only occasionally showers her with some vague form of affection. Kyouya is perhaps less impressive on the face of things, but the amusing reality is that he's not like your traditional tsundere love interest in that he doesn't have much in the way of redeeming qualities. She does actually develop as the series progresses, because initially his treatment of her does seem to bring her spirits down, yet she rather quickly begins to learn just how Kyouya works and how outwardly dishonest he is-and she adapts. When situations arise that would stereotypically end in an angst-filled fight between our couple, Erika maintains her usual headstrong, blind determination to win over her ice-hearted prince. The two main leads seem initially very unlikeable, but if you accept the fact that they mutually (consensually) engage in something of a sadomasochistic relationship-that neither one seems to want to disband even when given the chance-then the series provides some amusing comedy.Įrika is not your traditional shoujo heroine, she's actually a plucky, resilient lead who for reasons unbeknownst to most viewers, seems to enjoy Kyouya's treatment. Originality is not this anime's forte, per se, but it is successful as a romantic comedy because it is uncommon.
However this series provides us with a slight variant our main character is a compulsive liar with a penchant for emotional punishment (read: she's a masochist) that happens to, in a series of poor decisions and bad judgment, land herself a two-faced jerk who is content to treat her like The cliched trope of a spineless heroine and her tsundere love interest is all too common. It's a premise that is not necessarily unique, but for a shoujo series it actually is. A desire for acceptance is something that most of us can relate to, and at times that can drive us to certain extremes.
