Princess Tutu

I really didn't know what to expect when I downloaded some episodes of an anime called Princess Tutu. I figured it would be some cutesie magical girl show. I was not prepared for the bizarre show I was inflicted with. It's about this girl, Ahiru, who is learning ballet (her instructer is a cat person who threatens the students with marriage if they don't do well). And she saves people by turning into Princess Tutu, a magical ballet dancer (or at least that's what it looks like so far). Oh yes, and she's not really a girl, she's actually a duck. If she happens to quack when she's in girl form, she turns into a duck until she gets wet.

This has to be one of the stranger shows I've seen, but it's also one of the better ones I've seen. There is just something that is very charming about it. I've been downloading more to watch and hope it continues to be as good (though, from the reviews I've read it sounds like I don't have to worry). Oh, and you can also click on the image to read a review of the show and see some more images.

This was supposed to be on my anime blog, but I'm lazy and don't want to move it. Oops.
