Lapis is the princess of Sorcerland. She's beautiful, powerful and has a sparkling personality; it's too bad that she's not that bright. She'll go to any length to protect the most innocent of creatures even if it means destroying the kingdom to do so. And let's not forget her obsession with pudding!

Rating: 4.5
Approval: -
Another short series full of slapstick comedy and aimless story. It is fine if you like short uptakes but you will probably get over it quite fast.

ART SECTION: 6/10
The general feeling is nothing much. Just silly looking characters roaming free in a silly looking world. It ain’t more complicating than most JRPG of the early 80’s (flying islands, magic staves and chibi summoned monsters). Just simplistic and incoherent ideas wrapped up in a short package of silliness. The thing that attracts the eye most are the very smart camera angles. There is plenty of fish eye perspective, multi-layered method of depth, x-ray vision, bullet-time, spotlight focus and many more weird –sounding optical tricks that you wouldn’t expect to find in a slapstick comedy. So, the animation is poor but the the visual effects are great.

SOUND SECTION: 6/10
Voice acting and music themes sound quite silly but are lively enough to deserve something better than average. Pleasing but not great.

STORY SECTION: 3/10
A spoiled magical princess is sent by her parets on a quest of maturance. She meets all kinds of weird people and does all sorts of silly things… That’s it. The story is clearly just a vague excuse for the comedy to come along. It is only 3 episodes, so not much effort is given to the plot.

CHARACTER SECTION: 4/10
This could easily be part of a Slayers filler arc. We have a spoiled magical girl that loves pudding and blows things apart with her spells, a hapless male who cares about her, a silly female witch dressed in skimpy leather out to get her and several minor characters that come and go in a flash. Although not original, they are funny. But three episodes without an overall story or any character development are not enough for you to get to like them much. If there was some sort of development and not that many indirect links to the Slayer cast, they would be much more appealing.

VALUE SECTION: 1/10
It is not original and it is short. Why bother with it a second time when there are far funnier and longer series out there to chose from?

ENJOYMENT SECTION: 7/10
I would be lying if I were saying it wasn’t funny. Especially the jokes about breaking the fourth wall never grow old. For the most part it was very pleasing and I almost wish they had given Slayers the same artistic direction.

VERDICT: 4.5 / 10
A nice and quick viewing that is overshadowed by the titles in the following list.

SUGGESTION LIST

Akazukin Chacha, Mahoujin Guruguru and Dragon Half are equally good slapstick comedies, based on medieval setting.
Dai Mahou Touge and Dokuro-chan are equally good parodies, using the Mahou Shojo genre as an excuse.
Slayers are by far the longest and funniest medieval comedy ever.

· actionAction anime usually involve a fairly straightforward story of good guys versus bad guys, where most disputes are resolved by using physical force. It often contains a lot of shooting, explosions and fighting. **
· · collateral damageThe usually action orientated anime does not only show large amounts of combat and weapon use, but also the incidental massive destruction of property, often due to the inability of the protagonists to aim properly. Example: Mecha duking it out in a densely populated urban area. weightless
· · swordplayThe act or art of using a sword or similar weapon skillfully. +
· adventureAdventures are exciting stories, designed to provide an action-filled, energetic experience for the viewer. Rather than the predominant emphasis on violence and fighting, the viewer of adventures can live vicariously through the travels, conquests, explorations, creation of empires, struggles and situations that confront the main characters. Adventure films are often, but not always, set in an historical period. **
· comedyAnime whose central struggle causes hilarious results. These stories are built upon funny characters, situations and events. A comedy anime is laced with humour and sets out to provoke laughter from the audience. Japanese humour can be a bit strange to westerners, so if you`re new to this type of humour, just bear with it; it`ll most likely grow on you if you`re a fan of other kinds of comedy. ***
· · medium awarenessMedium awareness is the situational awareness characters in works of fiction have and display of the very fact that they are characters in works of fiction. For example, they may quip about the script or narration, complain about their roles, and so on. The most common form of medium awareness is known as breaking the fourth wall, in which characters speak directly to the audience. The "fourth wall" is the imaginary "wall" at the front of the stage through which the audience sees the play. *
· · slapstickSlapstick humour is generally recognized by lots of physical abuse, horseplay and practical jokes. Also often seen are impossible situations, using sounds to illustrate impossible stunts that aren`t shown on-screen and to create tension for audience anticipation. ***
· · · violent retribution for accidental infringementA comedy / slapstick element often found in Ecchi anime: The hilarity derives from spontaneous embarrassment, overreaction of the "victim" (girl), immediate retribution for a seemingly inappropriate act, and a sense of pity with the supposed "aggressor" (boy). +
· ecchiEcchi, or etchi (エッチ), is a common Japanese word meaning "indecent", "lewd", "frisky" or "sexy"; its usage can be compared to the English word "naughty". Among western anime fans, the term is used when vague sexual content, such as skimpy clothing or nudity, is prominent. In Japanese, however, it is a catch-all term for all things anyhow sexual in nature, mild or otherwise. +
· · pantsu"Panties" in Japanese. Upskirt views in various positions are typical, however all forms of partial or fully exposed panties are accepted. Exposure is usually accidental, but may also be deliberate. Pantsu views may be exclusive to the viewer without impacting any characters. Bikinis are not pantsu. +
· magical girlMagical girls (also known both in Japan and in the West as mahou shoujo, and in Japan as majokko) are young girls with superhuman abilities of magical nature. In the early years, magical girls usually used magic to solve everyday problems and often transformed into idols; nowadays, however, the term is most often used to refer to with girls who fight evil using magical powers, and, although transformations are still common, they tend to be more along the lines of a change of costume. *
· speculative fictionSpeculative fiction is an umbrella genre encompassing fiction with certain elements that do not exist in the real world, often in the context of supernatural, futuristic or other imaginative themes. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
· · fantasyImaginative or fanciful work, especially one dealing with supernatural elements and themes. **
· · · demonIn Western lore, demons are often described as minions from Hell, generally known to attack humans and feast on their flesh or possess the bodies of those with weak souls. In Eastern lore, on the other hand, they are generally supernatural, often but not always malevolent beings who can be more mischievous than actually evil, or simply supernatural spirits of no specific alignment. +
· · · fairyA fairy is a type of mythical being or legendary creature in European folklore, a form of spirit, often described as metaphysical, supernatural, or preternatural. *+
· · · magicMagic is the art of purportedly manipulating aspects of reality either by supernatural means or through knowledge of unknown occult laws. *+
· bishoujoIn the West, bishoujo are attractive girls generally from late childhood or early adolescence to late adolescence, especially those that appeal to males, and particularly fictional characters designed in a way traditionally associated to shoujo manga. Fictional bishoujo tend to be cute, pastel-coloured teenagers; they lack the sophistication of older women, instead having detailed eye and hair design, fluttery costumes often including ribbons, and all sorts of generally sparkly fluff. *+
· TO BE MOVED TO CHARACTERTags under this parent tag are going to be moved to character tags and removed from the anime they`re currently assigned to. They will be blocked from the anime system once that move is complete. Please help with that job if you know what characters they should be assigned to.
· · overeaterA character (who quite often is anything but fat) eats enough for an entire football team, usually devastating the whole table — and perhaps entire restaurants — with their insatiable hunger. Often combined with a speed-eating technique that makes food seem to vanish spontaneously from the plate. weightless
· Japanese productionno description set weightless
· mangaManga is the lifeblood that drives the anime industry. Everything and its mother is based on manga. However! There are exceptions where the manga was not the basis for the anime. See also manhua and manhwa. weightless
· placeThe places the anime can take place in. Includes more specific places such as a country on Earth, as well as more general places such as a dystopia or a mirror world.
· · fictional locationA fictional location is run by different rules than your common and ordinary world: fictional worlds, computer-generated worlds, fantasy worlds, magical worlds, parallel worlds accessible through portals, etc. A fantasy world typically involves magic or magical abilities, and/or a medieval theme. A world that generally shares the characteristics of, and/or is generally indistinguishable from the real world (bar research on a "more than cursory" level), would NOT be considered a fictional world. ***
· timeThis placeholder lists different epochs in human history and more vague but important timelines such as the future, the present and the past.
· · pastAnime that takes place in the past or clearly seems to take place in the past in case of an alternative universe. This category should almost always go together with one of its sub-categories, because the past can either be a depiction of a historical event(s) or not, in which case it would be alternative past. ***
· cookingCooking is the process of preparing food by using heat. *+
· sportsSports anime revolves around a recreational physical activity or skill. In addition they often adhere to certain genre conventions, the emphasis on training and practice in preparation for competition, characters desire for self improvement, and pursuit of a specific goal. +
