It's a quiet, melancholy yet hopeful story of magic and wonder that starts with some human trafficking.

The OVAs are nice. Watch them if you don't mind getting briefly introduced to a few characters you're going to meet this season (who are already in the OP) before it delves into the prequel story stuff.

Elias also has a deer skull for a head, and bare skulls aren't much known for expressions beyond grinning. The goofy face helps the artist more easily convey other moods.

Large spoiler in regards to nature of the auction
She was auctioned exotic magical specimen, with all that implies, Elias actually keeping her alive is regarded as unusual

On the bright side, she was entitled to a share of her price--assuming she didn't just get broken down for parts.

The soundtrack in general is pretty good so far.

I may have cried a little watching Episode 3.

This part with the dragons and what's coming up next were what really sold me on the manga.

I really like this arc. It sets a tone and feel for the series--the kingdom of cats in particular.

These curses don't go halfway.

Pretty much this, probably. It's a thousand-cat death curse. Not the sort of thing that messes around!

I dunno, that lovingly animated slow jiggle was pretty hilarious.

I forgot how great Titania and Oberon are in general.

They're a highlight of the early manga.

This show has a really striking soundtrack.

I think of all music in this show so far, the "You're about to see some hosed-up poo poo" track with the horns is my favorite.

Neat.

Wait, so that guy is a mage who's a sadistic rear end in a top hat torturing and hurting people for the sake of curiosity and, seemingly, amusement, so... Jesus cursed him to live forever? To bring extra suffering to the world? Are they sure it wasn't actually the devil behind it?

Well, his current state of being is clearly hellish--his mind appears to slip from moment to moment and he's basically a living zombie.
