This anime is so good in so many ways I don't know where to start.^_^ The first thing you notice is that the animation is outstanding and very realistic. The character development is excellent and you get emotionally involved with the characters and the plot much more than even in the average good live-action dramatic film.Yume, the protagonist of the series, is a young mage-in-training. Despite her obviously overwhelming powers, she struggles with insecurity and shyness. We see, however, how Yume's powers come from her intense feelings of love and her concern for others.Obviously the series is inspired in Studio Ghibli shojo like Kiki's Delivery Service, Whisper of the Heart and Umi ga Kikoeru. And it really does measure up to Studio Ghibli standards. I guess that's the ultimate compliment you could give any anime. ^-^
