Emily, a girl filled with hopes and dreams~ never mind the forehead, ok?

Emily of New Moon~ probably the most underrated series of 2007. Many people (including subbers of course) gave it a thumbs-down, probably due to its classical and non-mainstream nature? The ones I know who faithfully kept up with this series are psgels and hashihime, both of whom give such a high regard for this series. Impz also praised this series when it aired.

Episode 10 brought me goosebumps and giggles

Objectively speaking, moe-, GAR-, bishie- factor (or other such factors) aside, this anime is one of the best of 2007, if not THE best this year. And yes, I can say that even though I’m only halfway through the series (in watching / blogging). The glaring gripe one would commonly have for this series is Emily’s big forehead, but once you get past that, you’ll find a well-rounded series whose story, characters, and production values are simply amazing. If you’re into classics, or this kind of show is your cup-of-tea, I assure you that every time you spend on this series is time well-spent

I recall when I watched the first episode, I had goosebumps of excitement, that I somehow got infected by Emily’s poetic-ness and came up with this post (pardon the grammar errors, ok?) In most of the episodes I watched, I remember being infected with the mood and positive vibes given off by the show, inspiring me to actually reach for my own dreams. Forgive the cheesiness~ I am a sentimental person, which makes me love the series even more because of how it brings me tears of joy, more than anything.

Thanks to Digital Panic, 13 episodes of the series have been subbed so far, and of course, more to come~ =D Hopefully with the remaining days of the vacation I have, I’ll get back into watching/writing about Emily of New Moon again, and spread the word about this wonderful series!
