English This anime series contains some quite nice stories, and they are good enough to be bedtime stories. If I am not mistaken, apart from the opening and ending, I counted six country event stories in total, two of which I just did not enjoy very much ("You, the Escort from My Dreams and the Forgotten Village" and "The Flightless Angel and the Holy Wings of a Myriad Wishes") and two of which I enjoyed a lot ("Tomboy Fairy and the Dragon Who Feeds on Spring" and "King of the Opera and the Birdcaged Diva"), however, the rest were at least a bit interesting. Of course, each narrative was based on its own idea and was charming in its own right. In addition, all of them had a nice atmosphere. The aforementioned "King of the Opera and the Birdcaged Diva" has a very good soundtrack. As far as the characters are concerned, you get used to Yuu, the main male protagonist, and I have grown to like him, although I found Jamo and Toto to be more of an afterthought... What about Merc? Well, who would not want a cute girl locked in a jar? If Merc were available as merch, I would probably want to procure her – I thought she was such a cute creature even with her "Nanodesu yo!" 6.4/10. ()
