Corrector Yui · review
My holy trinity has always been: Sakura Cardcaptor, Sailor Moon, and Corrector Yui. And even though the first two are massive and loved by many, it's Corrector Yui that holds a special place in my heart I remember it so clearly... every day, very early in the morning, before the sun had even risen, I’d wrap myself up in my blanket, shuffle into the living room with the yellow kitchen light on and the smell of coffee in the air. My mom would be doing the dishes from the night before, and I’d be there on the couch, remote in hand, waiting for the show tobegin. And when that cheerful opening started playing with its colorful vibe:
"nas margens de um sonho,
Se liga, você já pode ver
E pro futuro me virou o olhar,
Me fez chegar
Num lugar onde o tempo espera"
Ah... my heart aches just remembering it. It felt like the whole world got a little bit lighter
Corrector Yui wasn’t just another “magical girl show.” She was a normal girl, a bit clumsy, who had to learn how to be brave and face technological problems in a fully digital world — and this was back in the early 2000s, when we had no idea what the internet would become
To me, Yui was the perfect mix of heroine and best friend: funny, optimistic, a bit scatterbrained, but with a huge heart
Nowadays, when I rewatch a few scenes on YouTube, I still feel the same warmth I did back then. The same sense of hope, of tender adventure, of a world that could be magical — even if the magic was hidden inside wires and binary code... only now, it short-circuits under a flood of tears
Corrector Yui may not be the most remembered anime of all time, but for me — for that kid on the couch, with warm coffee in hand and shining eyes — it will always be a treasure
10/10
