Anime 273 Mahoutsukai Ni Taisetsu Na Koto

Quick and Sweet Review!

Someday's Dreamers is an show that I watched back in 2009 and a show I randomly decided to re-watch now in 2016. I watched the English Dub version both times.

STORY: 6/10
The story primarily revolves around Yume Kikuchi, a mage apprentice who is training to become a certified mage. Each episode consists of Yumi learning the basis and ethical reasoning regarding when her magic power should be used in order to help others. The whole plot of the show is lackluster, but the simplicity of Someday's Dreamers is to a strong degree why I enjoyed it.

ART/ANIMATION: 7/10
Compared to the animation standards ... of today's animes, the artwork is not too bad. In other words the animation quality did not bother me at all.

SOUND: 8/10
The soundtrack is soothing and calming. Its one of those animes where you might want to check out the OST once you finish it. (The ending song is actually one of my favorites).

CHARACTERS: 6/10
There was quite a nice mix of interesting characters with each of them having their own unique background story. The main character Yume is your caring, sweet, error-prone teen girl. Unfortunately, with only 12 episodes character development was quite limited.

ENJOYMENT: 7/10
Its one of those shows where I wasn't hungry for the next episode, but I was able to easily sit through an entire episode. I certainly got a strong feeling of relaxation from this show and I was pretty pleased with every episode.

I recommend Someday's Dreamers to anyone looking for a relaxing slice of life anime where your full attention towards the show is not necessary. My Overall rating is 7/10

I enjoyed this story. It moved quite slowly at times, but it was beautiful and had some interesting coming-of-age drama. I wished that there was a little more character development of Yume's contemporary Angela -- she was one of the more interesting characters in the story, but we don't learn too much about her. Definitely recommend this series. I took a break from it a couple times before finishing, which I do not usually do -- primarily because the story was so slow moving. The opening and closing theme songs were good as well. I particularly liked Kaze No ... Hana -- it seems like it was a Japanese-style ballad -- quite dramatic and the words were deep and moving.

It had a good premise but the show isn't sure whether to be a magic story or whatever the fuck it is. The magic rules thingy is quite interesting but wasn't utilize well.
The side characters are also quite useless because there's no development in the characters.
There's a regression from the MC, but all she does, in the end, was to return to who she was in episode 1. Not much personality sticks out to me.
The pacing is wack too. There aren't many interactions between the MC and her master to say that "he changed when you came here" like lmao

The opening and ending though, ... are BANGERS. I could listen to them all day. The OST is decent, but it wasn't implemented well in the series. The timing was meh.

Overall, it's an average series. (4.8/10)
