Synopsis | Saga is a young girl living with her grandmother in a Miyazaki-like German town who finds a snow fairy named Sugar. Sugar is high strung, with a high-pitched voice and a magical ability to create snowflakes. She is learning her trade and is in the human world to find a "kirimeki", although she doesn't know what it is. Saga is also the only human around who can see, hear and touch Sugar and her other fairy friends.

Review | The first "Snow Sugar Fairy" DVD, PIBA-1280, is also from Pioneer, also comes with a box, and is also 16:9 aspect ratio, but there are three episodes on the disc along with some advertisements and versions of the opening and closing songs and animation without the credits. There is also a trading card of Saga and a booklet.
"Sugar" is almost too cute to describe, but it is also quite imaginative and different. ( It's also not ecchi. ) Saga gives Sugar a waffle and Sugar becomes inseparable from Saga from then on. This causes Saga all sorts of problems - it's hard for Saga to concentrate on anything with a loud mouthed fairy yammering on at high speed in her face. Some cute "adventures" occur and a couple of Sugar's friends show up to join her in her quest. All-in-all, the pace is very lively and bright and "Sugar" was a lot more fun to watch than I expected. "Sugar" does remind me a lot of "Risky/Safety", but no one is as "down" in "Sugar" as in "R/S". (Dave Baranyi) I liked this - it's really cute. (GC) |
