Description
My first Princess Tutu fanart! I only just discovered this little-known and extremely-deserving-of-praise anime, and I absolutely fell in love with it! (Not just bacause Fakir and Mytho are dang hot XD ) Please, PLEASE don't let the title scare you off, the anime is not what the title would indicate. Yes, there's ballet, but it's so much more than that!Anyway, I'm not going to explain this picture to you, except to say that the words are very pertinent to the plot, because I want you all to go find it on youtube and watch it. It's relatively short (26 episodes, I think? ) , but so worth it! And for Tutu fans out there like myself, I plan to do more in future

I couldn't even tell you how I watched it in the first place, but I had no idea it existed beforehand, so that's a mistake I actually avoided. I was into the whole thing before I was really aware of the title, which sounds weird, but is totally true. Knowing me, I would have made the same rush judgment (seriously, the title may be character-importance-accurate, but.... some things don't translate well) . I'm really glad I was able to go into the experience without any pre-conceived notions either way, because, like you said, it really is one of the best anime series! (And yes, buuuuuy iiiiiiiit... totally worth the price! )

Would if Hastings wasn't closing. They're the only place in the town I live in to have a decent anime selection...and they went bankrupt. DAMMIT ALL!!!

I guess it's time to turn to online shopping XD

Don't trust internet security enough to use actual money. Maybe gift cards. I did ask for the series as a Christmas present, though. That is how I am going to get things now, I expect. Christmas and birthday presents...and saving up as much money as I can before my family visits relatives in the Seattle area. Kinokuniya Bookstores and Pink Gorilla game shop get SO much money out of me bi-annually...

I'm pretty careful myself, but there are some things I can't get other than online. Le sigh >_<

Also Fakir is better looking by my standards. Mytho is a little TOO pretty.

Of course, as someone who enjoys ballet and greatly admires the people who perform it, there being ballet isn't necessarily a bad thing. Unless of course it's one of those anime where the only times "ballet" is ever shown are "pose 1, pose 2, pose 3, everyone claps."
But I've seen the first 15 episodes, so I'm aware that Princess Tutu isn't the "pose, pose, clapclapclap" kind of ballet. Though, yes, there is more to it than ballet.

That's why I adore the anime! It deconstructs a whole bunch of tropes, plays some straight, inverts and subverts like mad....and it's just so fun and awesome and it DOES ITS HOMEWORK. Maaaaaan....

YESSSS!!!! And for being as dark as it is, it manages to do so without being pointlessly dark or randomly making a character do something incredibly stupid just for the sake of proving how "dark" it is. Not to mention it shows that it's okay to have a happy ending, even if it isn't the way you'd expect.
And as much as I love The Nutcracker and Swan Lake, I like how Princess Tutu uses music from ballet other than those, such as Copelia or A Midsummer Night's Dream. And Mr. Cat's pas de chat. And sooo many fairy tale references mixed in!
And I like how Mytho's hand isn't quite over where his heart should be. It's kind of like, "I know it's supposed to be kind of around here somewhere, but I can't really feel it beating, so..." It seems like something he'd do around episode 5 or 6, when he doesn't have any more than a few fragments.

*nodnodnod* It even gets dark gradually, until you actually have to stop and say, "Whoa, this is dark!" But yeah, I adore the background music, and the themes and the references...GUH...EVERYTHING!
*nodnod* A little detail I wondered if anyone would notice. Plus, he's got those really dainty ballet hands, so they kins of curve over his chest. I just....man...I love these two...and I love the show... It makes me happy
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep! Mytho definitely has the ballet hands.
In a way, I can imagine him being slightly weirded out as he starts being able to feel it beating again, and Fakir or Rue (or even Ahiru) having to explain that that's normal.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh man, definitely. He'd think it was a trapped bird or something. I imagine him freaking out at night or something, and Fakir having to crawl under teh covers with him to keep him company because "OMIGOSH IT'S GONNA POP OUT OF MY CHEST" XD

Especially if he had the fear shard back. XD Man, now I want to draw the night-freak-out you just described!

Oh wow, that quote is so perfect for both of them! And I agree, this show needs a lot more love!

I'm so glad! I adore PT, and these are my two favorite characters ^__^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
PT is probably on of the best, if not the best anime I've watched. And those two are pretty awesome
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd have to agree with you on that XD (And I have to say that I pretty much love all the PT characters, which is not usual for me XD )

Uh oh... *hides Fakir, who is ready to go on the warpath*

he couldn't beat me up. He's only a, what? 112 pound man ballerina? oooohh mean jokes for fakir! he's easy too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but that's 112+ pounds of pure muscle! Anyone who can leap and fight and lift the way a male ballet dancer can could easily beat me up, and I'm no lightweight myself XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Heehee! All I could hope to do would be to sit on someone and knock the wind out of them. XD
