Alice to Zouroku

What is the world to do with those different and more powerful than itself? Much much more powerful.

Apparently not a lot; the world is often times oblivious to those who possess such "gifts" and they are seldom even mentioned let alone known.

Just who and what are those gifted such? I'm not telling; suffice to say there are always generic "bad guys" who are extremely secretive and seek to exploit these persons for "greater" good.

Hence begins a heart-warming tale of Sana, and her encounter with the outside world. There's only one little problem; she's never been "outside" and never experienced real contact with others outside her "family" of researchers.

Thus, this adorable little girl, who has almost omnipotent power, fortuitously meets an elderly gentleman who hates crooked stuff, and goes on to offer her adoption into his family as his second granddaughter. The first being another lovely young child called Sanae (!). Mr Zorouku then starts to treat Sana as his own, combining his gruff and taciturn demeanour with a warm loving heart.

Thus awakens in Sana feelings foreign to her; acceptance, belonging and expectation. She saw tough love at work and she begins to care and love the old man deeply and see Sanae as her own big sister.

Enjoy the childish banter and exchanges as one would expect from a young child and rejoice vicariously as we see Sana grow as a person and learns responsibility.

Chortle as you see her tremble in the presence of Zorouku and runs to cling him because she both fears his discipline but loves him dearly at the same time!

Enjoy!

I picked up the show by randomizer. Didn't expect anything in particular just watched first episode.

It didn't overwhelm me. The animation and design are mediocre and use of cheap 3DCG is all over the place.

But I went on watching. And it got better. Episodes 3-6 are going from first battle of the show to not really battle, but a major conflict for sure. And this midseason part was so warm so nice to watch you forget about bad animation. The atmosphere of the show is cute, not on K-ON level, but cute enough.

And then the antagonist appears. And she is actually great. And the show overall gets better.

Everything resolves in the final episode (obviously). And final episode is the essence of the show, it is a warm-hearted girls growing up and experiencing the World.

If only all episodes were that good. And yeah, plot gets better, but not the animation.

The story is about children and childhood. Every child is in constant need of care and supervision .In the affection starved child,Sana ,the neglect in her upbringing is very evident to the old man Zouroku from the moment they meet.Unfazed by the fact that Sana is in fact a phenomenon morphed into a living girl called the 'Red queen' and not a human, Zouroku decides to take her in.Despite her ill manners and disrespect towards elders Zouroku's persistence and affection finally succeeds in making a kind caring individual out of the distrustful 'Red Queen'.
