Review of Fena: Pirate Princess
There are plenty of reviews but I wish to add to them regardless because I believe this show requires more recognition than it has gotten. *Non-Spoiler Review* Story - 7 The story is good, but nothing mind-blowing. I will say it is a satisfying story, however. In that it had me hooked and I enjoyed the whole thing, even with a satisfying ending. But it isn't above & beyond. So I'm giving this a 7. There were also elements to this story I never expected to pop up, and it was honestly a good surprise to enjoy. Art & Characters - 10 This is a high score,yes, but it's because I genuinely love the animation, art, and the character design (both visually and story-wise). There are some troupes here and there, but mostly I felt the choice in character personalities and the various animation decisions for those characters in key moments really pulled everything together. I'm a sucker for good characters, especially supporting cast. So these two points really did make me quite happy! There isn't a lot of character progression in anyone but the main characters, but it's also to be expected from a short series such as this.
Sound, Enjoyment, and Overall: 8
In my own personal spreadsheet I have this at a 9, but I do recognize it might not be THAT good and I may be a bit biased. So I think 8 is a very fair score when looking at overall enjoyment, quality, design, ect. This show very much delighted me and had me hooked (I ended up watching it all in one day. Oops!) I'm not sure what is left to say but that I enjoyed it quite a lot and was surprised by how good it ended up being.
Hope this helps, and I hope folks out there give it a shot.
Cheers!
