Soredemo sekai wa utsukushii

It would have been more positively received if King Livius had been portrayed as an older individual. I tried to watch it three times, but it was only on my fourth attempt that I accepted the fact that he is 11-13 while she is 16-18, which feels quite unsettling. However, aside from that, I found the main song used during her ritual to be beautiful, and the animation was stunning. "The World Is Still Beautiful" made for a good anime overall, despite the troubling age gap. I just tried to put aside my feelings about the age gap simply by imagining he was just unusually very short rather than being quite a few years younger than his "wife".

Funny and heart warming definitely one of my favourite anime

Liked the fact we get to see a Age gap relationship in an anime like the couple were really interesting to say the least! Also the Japanese sub voice actors were great too (yes incl the great Tomokazu Sugita also!!) and the animation was pretty neat if you ask me!

8/10 I give this lovely romantic anime :)

A beautiful beautiful tale of love between two apparently unevenly yoked prople! Princess Nike is good, kind, strong and quick to unleash wind that can cut through steel bars! And oh yes; very pretty to boot. King Livius is a precociously superlative monarch who conquered the world in 3 years through shrewdness and an iron will! But wait; he is just a kid! Still; the more lasting and precious traits of each shine through as he tries his usual brusqueness on her and she shows her moral compass and strength of character even in the face of personal safety. I admire Liviius' ability to judge character; his harshness eventually mellowing when he realises the inner beauty and fortitude of his wife...And what vocals for Nike! Enough to stop and force tears from the eyes! Enjoy the goofy situations which give us chuckles but still warms the heart when we realise this series is about the hidden things of the heart and mind, the yearnings and the bliss of discovering one's soulmate! Touché! I'd recommend this series for anyone waiting to feel warm and fuzzy all over!

This is my absolute, top favorite anime of all time. It's got the comedy, romance, action-ish, drama. What's not to like? I've shed many tears upon watching this anime and I RARELY cry from animated anything. It's heartwarming yet heart wrenching at the same time that at times I want to go inside my phone and become a part of the anime myself! I would undoubtedly recommend for anyone regardless of age, to go ahead and watch this masterpiece!
