  1. Mahoutsukai no Yome 「魔法使いの嫁」 The Ancient Magus' Bride (2017, 24 episodes)@onlyjob496d

    Good enough, despite "Harry Potter"-like clichés.

    A desperate orphan girl who "don't care whether to live or die" have nothing to live for, so she sold herself to slavery following advice: "If you're so eager to throw your life away, perhaps you should consider giving it to someone who will make better use of it than you can.".

    She is bought on auction for 5 million GBP by a mage who makes her his apprentice (for her extraordinary potential in magic) so she undergoes magical training with immersion to hidden world of magical creatures. She established close relationships with not very human "bonehead" mage who have no face hence he expresses no facial emotions and not easily understood. It is basically "isekai" genre where protagonist explores entirely new world (albeit loosely connected to a village not too far away from London) while having many adventures. Good dynamic story with plenty of impressive artwork and immersion. Many mysterious magical creatures. However, it is slightly disappointing that viewers learn so little about the "bonehead" master... The story suffers from repeating pattern of protagonist being hurt then spending a while in recovery.

    Good impression was somewhat spoiled by needlessly cruel, dark, tragic and depressing last few episodes, despite weak happy ending.

    Elias takes Chise from the auction and promises that she will become his apprentice and wife in the future, Chise agrees since she has a very dark past (I won't give spoilers to make it more interesting for you) and a special ability which allows her to see magical creatures of all kinds being a Slay Vega (A very powerful magician capable of extracting magic from her surroundings and from herself) Elias bought her for a very specific reason which is developed later in the plot.

    Elías se lleva a Chise de la subasta y le promete que se convertirá en su aprendiz y Esposa en el futuro, Chise accedé ya que ella tiene un pasado muy oscuro ( No dare spoirls para que sea mas interesarte) y una habilidad especial la cual le permite ver criaturas mágicas de todo tipo siendo una Slay Vega ( Una maga muy poderosa capaz de extraer magia de su entorno y de ella misma) Elias la compró por un motivo muy específico el cual se desarrolla mas adelante en la trama.

    Chise and Elias begin to live together, next to Silky (A mute fairy who helps Elias with the maintenance of the house) and Ulysse (Ruth) a black dog who transforms into a human, he becomes Chise's familiar and guardian (His story is very moving 🥺). As for the first season, both Chise and Elias face different emotional adversities such as Magic missions, this couple has a lot to learn about love and trust, they must learn to communicate their emotions (both have a somewhat stormy past).

    Chise y Elías empiezan a convivir juntos, al lado de Silky ( Un hada muda la cual ayuda a Elías en el mantenimiento de la casa) y Ulysse(Ruth) un perro negro el cual se transforma en humano, el se convierte en el familiar y guardian de Chise ( Su historia es muy conmovedora 🥺). A lo de la primera temporada tanto Chise como Elías enfrentan diferentes adversidades emocionales como misiones Mágicas, esta pareja tiene mucho que aprender del amor y la confianza, deben aprender a comunicar sus emociones ( ambos tienen un pasado algo tormentoso).

    This anime has many references regarding Celtic culture (something that I love) and the traditions of the Catholic Church, thus combining Gods like Titania (Queen of the fairies) with the priests of the Catholic religion, as well as many characters in the anime make reference to stories from the Bible, this includes Elijah since there is a theory that his origin was the thorns of the crown of Jesus crucified (Since its origin has not been confirmed as such) as well as Chise's abilities. While the anime is about fantasy, magic and romance, it also has a bit of mystery and suspense regarding the true interests and origins of some characters.

    Este anime tiene muchas referencias con respecto a la cultura Celta ( algo que me encanta) y las tradiciones de la iglesia Católica, combinando así a Dioses como Titania( Reina de las hadas) con los curas de la religión católica, al igual que muchos personajes del anime hacen referencia a relatos de la biblia, esto incluye a Elías ya que se tiene la teoría de que su origen fueron las espinas de la corona de Jesús crucificado ( Ya que su origen no ha sido confirmado como tal) al igual que las habilidades de Chise. Si bien el anime es de fantasía magia y romance también tiene un poco de misterio y suspenso al respecto de los verdaderos intereses y origenes de algunos personajes.

    In my personal opinion, this anime is very interesting and somewhat addictive, its animation is good as well as the development of the plot, it does not have much filler and has funny moments between Chise and Elias (Sometimes he seems like a child hehe) it also has some romantic and cute scenes. It is an excellent choice to spend a weekend watching anime.

    En mi opinión personal, este anime es muy interesante y algo adictivo, su animación es buena al igual que el desarrollo de la trama, no posee mucho relleno y cuenta con momentos divertidos entre Chise y Elías ( A veces parece un niño jejje) también cuenta coj escenas románticas y lindas. Es una excelente elección para pasar un fin de semana viendo anime.

    Titre anglophone

    The Ancient Magus Bride

    Titre original

    魔法使いの嫁 ( Mahō tsukai no yome )

    Auteur Kore Yamazaki Éditeur (ja) Mag Garden (fr) Komikku Éditions

    Volumes : 19 écrit

    Animé 2 saisons 3 OAV 3 OAD

    Pour ceux qui ne savent pas forcément les termes dans l'animation :

    OAV = film tiré d'un univers manga ou bande dessinée , mais n'étant pas dans la trame de l'histoire de base (on pourrait dire "hors-série" si on veut ) .

    OAD = film à destination de la version DVD jamais diffusé à la télévision , au cinéma ou sous forme écrite ( généralement fait par un tiers ayant loué ou acheté la licence d'exploitation , avec un droit de regard limité des ayants droit , plus que hors-série , lol ) .

    L'histoire saison 1 :

    Vous suivrez l'histoire de Chise, une 'Slay Vega', qui dans leur univers sont des personnes capables de voir les esprits et de communiquer avec eux, ainsi que d'attirer la magie à elles. Alors que ceux qui veulent apprendre la magie doivent parfois mettre des années pour apprendre à la maîtriser.

    Un jour, une entité dite démonique, sans âme ni émotion, du nom d'Elias Ainsworth décide d'acheter Chise dans une vente enchère ou de riche humain initié achète des espèce inconnue du grand public , généralement des démons pour en faire des esclave . Dans leur monde, très peu de gens connaissent la magie, les esprits, etc., et les magiciens et les sorciers (oui, ce sont deux catégories différentes) se cachent des humains qui les craignent.

    Elias Ainsworth achète notre héroïne pour en faire sa femme en déclarant qu'elle a plusieurs malédictions de naissance :

    La première est de voir les esprits. La deuxième est d'attirer la magie et les êtres magiques à elle. La troisième est d'être maudite par des êtres démoniaques. Et la dernière est d'être immortelle.

    Elias Ainsworth protégera Chise si elle accepte de l'épouser, tout en lui apprenant à maîtriser ses dons. En échange, elle devra lui apprendre les sentiments humains, lui qui est un démon dont la seule fonction est de tuer.

    Il as toujours voulus une femme humaine , alors qu'en il as une découvert une immortel il n'as pas hésité .

  4. La novia del mago antiguo@irenenavarroart1448d
    Saludos a todos los amantes del anime, recientemente vi una publicación del administrador de esta comunidad en donde nos contaba acerca de los bajos niveles de participación de la comunidad, es algo que me pareció un poco triste, aunque no me considero la más grande conocedora de ánime o mangas, siento que en mi vida he tenido muchos agradables momentos gracias a algún anime, bien sea en mi niñez como en mi edad adulta, actualmente mi hijo de seis años ve Naruto conmigo y yo estoy feliz de poder tener ese pequeño espacio de complicidad entre mi hijo y yo, sin embargo, son pocas las ocasiones en que podría ver una anime solo por distraerme un rato, así que estoy muy complacida de que mi amiga @yetsimar me haya recomendado este anime llamado La novia del mago antiguo (Mahō Tsukai no Yome), ella conoce mis gustos y sabia que este tipo de historia podría gustarme, asi que comparto con ustedes mis impresiones acerca de este anime y las razones por la cual me gustó tanto.

    Greetings to all anime lovers, recently I saw a post from the administrator of this community where he told us about the low levels of community participation, it is something that seemed a bit sad to me, although I do not consider myself the greatest connoisseur of anime or manga, I feel that in my life I have had many pleasant moments thanks to some anime, either in my childhood or in my adulthood, currently my six-year-old son watches Naruto with me and I am happy to be able to have that small space of complicity between my son and me, however, there are few occasions when I could watch an anime just to distract myself for a while, so I am very pleased that my friend @yetsimar recommended me this anime called The Ancient Magus Bride (Mahō Tsukai no Yome), she knows my tastes and knew that I might like this type of story, so I share with you my impressions about this anime and the reasons why I liked it so much.

    La historia del anime gira en torno a una chica llamada Shise, ella tiene 15 años, es de Japón y nació con la capacidad de poder ver criaturas mágicas, estas criaturas pueden ser inofensivas y también hay algunas de las que debe cuidarse porque le pueden hacer daño, de todo modos tantos las buenas como las malas pueden acortar la vida de Shise por la exposición a la magia, su familia cuida de ella mientras es pequeña pero pronto sucederán cosas que afectarán su futuro, su padre la abandona y su madre se suicida, todo esta espiral de sucesos trágicos hacen que la pobre chica no encuentre su lugar en el mundo, se siente abandona y va creando en su mente un desapego por la vida, al punto de no querer seguir viviendo, pero acepta una propuesta de ser vendida en una subasta donde u hombre extraño con cara de cráneo animal la compra por una suma extraordinaria de dinero, este hombre de nombre Elias es un mago quien la compra para ser su aprendiz y esposa.

    The story of the anime revolves around a girl named Shise, she is 15 years old, she is from Japan and was born with the ability to see magical creatures, these creatures can be harmless and there are also some that you should be careful of because they can make you sick. damage, anyway both good and bad can shorten Shise's life due to exposure to magic, her family takes care of her while she is little but soon things will happen that will affect her future, her father abandons her and her mother commits suicide , all this spiral of tragic events make the poor girl not find her place in the world, she feels abandoned and creates in her mind a detachment from life, to the point of not wanting to continue living, but she accepts a proposal to be sold at an auction where a strange man with an animal skull face buys her for an extraordinary sum of money, this man named Elias is a magician who buys her to be his apprentice and wife.

    Source

    Hay muchas cosas destacables en este anime a mi parecer, por una lado tanto Shise como Elias tienen un buen desarrollo de personaje, ambos cambian o mejor dicho crecen conforme van sucediendo las cosas, al inicio Shise se muestra como una chica muy vulnerable que depende completamente de lo que su “dueño” le diga que haga y aprenda, con un deteriorado estado de salud no parece importarle mucho ponerse en riesgo cuando es necesario, pero al mismo tiempo va desarrollando independencia en sus decisiones, estando consciente de su decisión de dañar su cuerpo por el uso de la magia es algo que hace por los seres que aprecia, sin embargo tiene una lucha interna al mismo tiempo, pues lo que en un principio pareciera un sacrificio o una retribución hacia los demás que la han mantenido con vida, se va tornando como una decisión personal valiente.

    There are many remarkable things in this anime in my opinion, on the one hand both Shise and Elias have a good character development, both change or rather grow as things happen, at the beginning Shise is shown as a very vulnerable girl who is completely dependent on of what his "owner" tells him to do and learn, with a deteriorated state of health he does not seem to care much about putting himself at risk when necessary, but at the same time he is developing independence in his decisions, being aware of his decision to damage his body for the use of magic is something she does for the beings she appreciates, however she has an internal struggle at the same time, because what at first seemed like a sacrifice or retribution towards the others who have kept her alive, It is becoming like a brave personal decision.

    Source

    Por otro lado el personaje de Elias me parece encantador, en un principio se nuestra como una personaje de aspecto temible pero que trata de forma amable y paternal a Shise, pero poco a poco empieza a sentir más curiosidad por entender los sentimientos humanos, desarrolla en cierto punto una relación de codependencia emocional con Chise pero que debe ser superado, el también tiene una lucha interna contra sus propios impulsos, al ser una criatura que no es completa.

    On the other hand, the character of Elias seems charming to me, at first he sees us as a fearsome-looking character but who treats Shise in a kind and paternal way, but little by little he begins to feel more curious about understanding human feelings, he develops in To some extent, a relationship of emotional codependency with Chise but that must be overcome, he also has an internal fight against his own impulses, being a creature that is not complete.

    Me gusta mucho que el anime muestre diferentes escenarios, Shise es de Japón pero cuando Elias la compra la lleva a Inglaterra, desde allá pueden visitar el mundo de las hadas que es algo completamente distinto , también van a Islandia donde se encuentran la tierra de los dragones, me gusta mucho que en la historia de anime se utilicen elementos tradicionales de la mitología de nórdica, como los dragones, las hadas y también festividades como el Yule.

    I really like that the anime shows different scenarios, Shise is from Japan but when Elias buys her he takes her to England, from there they can visit the world of fairies which is something completely different, they also go to Iceland where they find the land of the dragons, I really like that traditional elements of Norse mythology are used in the anime story, such as dragons, fairies and also festivities such as Yule.

    Estéticamente hablando el dibujo de los personaje es muy hermoso, además el estudio de animación tengo entendido que es Wit Studio, del cual tengo referencias muy buenas, por ser el encargado de hacer las primeras temporadas de Ataque a los titanes y Raking os Kings. Espero que sí no han visto este anime, le den la oportunidad y verán que es muy interesante , lindo y bien animado.

    Aesthetically speaking, the drawing of the characters is very beautiful, and I also understand that the animation studio is Wit Studio, of which I have very good references, for being in charge of making the first seasons of Attack on Titan and Raking the Kings. I hope that if you have not seen this anime, give it a chance and you will see that it is very interesting, cute and well animated.

  5. #ANIMETECA# - The Ancient Magus' Bride (Maho Tsukai no Yome, 2017)@flaviusbusck2961d

    Um anime de magia, amor e relações humanas (bom, nem tão humanas assim).

    MV5BZDU3Y2QwZTEtZWMyOS00YTI5LWE1ODYtY2UzZTBiNTljNTE2XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNjc3OTE4Nzk@.V1.jpg

    Direção: Norihiro Naganuma | Gênero: Fantasia, Mistério, Aventura Ano: 2017 | Nota no IMDB: 8,1/10 |**Episódios:**24

    ESSE TEXTO CONTÉM ALGUMAS INFORMAÇÕES QUE PODEM SER INTERPRETADAS COMO SPOILERS (apesar de eu ter evitado colocar as partes vitais da trama)

    divider-1024.png

    Maho Tsukai no Yome, que conta apenas com uma temporada até então, convida-nos a um mundo animado pela magia exercida por magos, bruxas e feiticeiras ao lado de seres elementais e criaturas quase eternas. É o nosso próprio mundo, mas, no anime, existe uma dimensão limítrofe entre o mundo material e o mundo espiritual, onde atuam seres de sensibilidade elevada, transitando entre planos e reinos diferentes.

    Baseado no mangá escrito por Kore Yamazaki, em outubro 2017 foi lançado, sob a direção de Norihiro Naganuma, a série de televisão de anime no Japão. Até o presente momento, conta com uma temporada, mas há previsão de lançamento de uma segunda, acompanhando a estória do mangá. Lançado pelo Wit Studio, o anime conta com uma animação de qualidade, retratando bem os elementos fantasiosos que compõem aquele mundo mágico. As cores são vibrantes e as paisagens bucólicas europeias condizem com o que se busca apresentar, que é um mundo europeu muitas vezes rural do modo que é frequentemente idealizado no imaginário cultural em jogos, filmes e livros.

    Acompanhamos a história de Chise Hatori, uma japonesa de 16 anos com uma sofrida história de vida. Apesar de uma história muito trágica para a pouca idade que possui, há algo de especial nessa garota japonesa de cabelos ruivos e olhos claros, ela é uma Sleigh Beggy, que seria um tipo muito raro de pessoa nascida com a habilidade de gerar e absorver grandes quantidades de energia mágica, sendo o custo disso uma vida de menor duração. Sleigh Beggy, na língua manesa (idioma gaélico da Ilha de Man), significa "gente pequena", que seria o equivalente a "fadas" em inglês.

    MV5BNzlhMThhZDItODlmZS00ODFiLWIzZjUtNTMyMzRhMGJhYjlkXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNjc3OTE4Nzk@.V1.jpg

    Em um leilão de uma espécie de submundo de artes mágicas que ocorre às margens da sociedade, ela, agora órfã, é vendida a um misterioso comprador. Este vem a se revelar como Elias Ainsworth, um mago que não é nem humano nem criatura mágica; ele é alguma espécie de meio-termo que desconhece a própria natureza. Com séculos de idade, Elias compra Chise para que seja, além de aprendiz, sua noiva. Elias, em sua aparência mais comum, apresenta um crânio de lobo com chifres de bode, podendo mudar sua aparência em determinadas situações. Ele é um mestre da magia e iniciará Chise nesse mundo, explicando para ela o que eram aquelas criaturas e coisas estranhas que ela via desde criança e que a faziam se sentir diferente de todos.

    O anime toma como plano de fundo um mundo onde a mágica é viva e as criaturas encantadas são reais, apesar de pessoas comuns como nós não poderem as ver. Chise, apesar de japonesa, é levada a viver em uma região rural da Inglaterra, lugar habitado por fadas e pelas mais diversas criaturas. O anime viaja pelo imaginário místico europeu, indo aos países gelados do norte e se referindo, ao que parece, até aos povos indígenas sami.

    A principal mitologia que influencia o anime é a celta, de onde vêm muitas criaturas e entidades retratadas, como a Rainha Morrigan, por exemplo. É como se a alma do mundo possuísse um nível mais profundo entre a matéria e o espírito, nível onde diversas inteligências atuassem. Os humanos seriam inteligências próximas ao que é material, mas as fadas e outros seres teriam menos de matéria e mais da qualidade etérea do espírito. A quem tem a certa predisposição, esse universo de outras criaturas se apresenta junto com todos os seus espíritos, deuses, fantasmas e demônios.

    É possível notar que os criadores da série fizeram uma profunda pesquisa na espiritualidade antiga do continente europeu. Em quase todo episódio há menção a algum tipo de atividade tradicional antiga de passado pagão. Em um determinado episódio, é natal e eles estão para celebrar o Yule (solstício de inverno), buscando um tronco para queimar, hábito que Elias explica para Chise. Esse é um costume muito antigo das religiões europeias e que ainda é mantido em alguns países. No entanto, o cristianismo também é relatado como força atuante no mundo mágico, sendo um padre local amigo de Elias e de Chise.

    Outra coisa interessante é que no começo dos episódios, há um pequeno ditado tradicional, aqueles da sabedoria popular. Para nós pode parecer coisa simples e muito comum, mas certamente para os japoneses esses ditados soam como pequenas peças de sabedoria, assim como podem soar a nós os seus dizeres.

    Porém, o universo mítico e encantado europeu serve de fundo para que se desenrolem questões pessoais dos personagens. A relação inusitada de amor entre Chise e Elias é um dos focos do anime. Embora haja frequentemente momentos de ação, eles não ditam toda a tônica da série. A impressão que fica é de que são curtos e não tão intensos como costumam ser em outros animes de ação. É sempre como se os momentos de ação fossem secundários diante do aspecto da relação entre os personagens. Há uma crítica que vi em alguns lugares e que julgo válida: de certa forma, o anime é lento. Assim, torna-se de especial importância que aquele mundo em si cative o espectador. A aparente lentidão e do foco diminuído sobre a ação é compensada pelo envolvimento emocional com os personagens, apesar de ter visto algumas pessoas acusando-os de falta de carisma. De um lado, temos Chise, com problemas do passado lhe perseguindo na forma de inseguranças e lembranças e, do outro, Elias, que não é totalmente humano e não consegue compreender apropriadamente conceitos humanos de sentimento. Há um aprendizado mútuo que se desenvolve a partir da relação dos dois, envolvendo os outros personagens que convivem com eles e dinamizando uma estória de amor.

    Mahoutsukai no Yome - 12 - Large 03.jpg

    Recomendaria esse anime para aqueles que não são tão presos à ação ou a um ritmo mais intenso, mas que gostam de observar outras coisas. Não necessariamente a relação amorosa, mas a formação daquele universo, as referências míticas e o desenvolvimento da trama além das questões pessoais, mesmo estas estando sempre presentes.

  6. The Ancient Magus Bride: a fascinating animated series not to be missed!@redanime3196d

    Korean Yamazaki's The Ancient Magus Bride (Mahou Tsukai no Yome) made much talk of him with the arrival of his adaptation in anime. But the real question is whether it reaches the ankle of the manga

    Ancient-Magus-Bride-Series-Header.jpg

    The first 3 episodes of the animated series were previewed on Friday, September 22, 2017, and there is no need to say: the WIT studio (Shingeki no Kyojin) continues to prove that it is capable of doing honor to the manga that adapts! The animated series (24 episodes?) Begins on October 07, 2017, in Japan

    202787e6827092441a272e6ad25c21b3-1024x576.jpg

    Genre: Shonen, Animation / Adventure, Romance / Romance

    Synopsis:

    History draws us into the fantastic adventures of Elias Ainsworth, a powerful wizard with a demon skeleton head, and his new disciple / wife, Chise Hatori. Together, they traverse the enchanted and dangerous world of the supernatural according to the needs and missions of Elias. Thus Chise will discover a new world populated by incredible beings and by the same duty to master the magic that gives it the status of Slay Vega that it actually carries since its birth.

    IMPRESSIONS:

    The first 3 episodes are fairly representative of what is going to be the global series: a mystical and relaxing adventure in a dream world populated by magical beings, myths and legends. The story settles slowly and initiates us to its universe, distilling information about the environment in which Chise will have to evolve. The creatures, the environment and the characters are revealed as and when, which allows us to discover at the same time that the heroine the world where we were embarked. Just like the manga, the anime takes time. And this is skilfully conducted.

    maxresdefault.jpg

    By laying the foundations of the narrative in this way, the mysteries are accentuated and make us curious about everything: whether it be the character of Elias, a sorcerer very intriguing as much by his appearance as by his status, or by Chise herself whose past is simply evoked by short flashbacks, and even beings who revolve around them, apparently peaceful but hide ambitions that are much less so ... In brief everything is to be discovered and it makes us want to explore in depth this universe which is described to us as marvelous and dangerous at the same time.

    Universe that is not unlike that of a Black Butler or even a Harry Potter where there are wizards and reclusive reindeers, shops specialized in magic material, a secret coexistence between magic and the world of humans, all in a 19th century English setting. However, the atmosphere here is much more warm and poetic, mainly thanks to the magical fauna, ranging from the tiniest of fairies to the imposing dragons, familiar and other spirits with a youthful appearance, but also thanks to this very rich, verdant flora and sparkling. You will have understood, the visual aspect is one of the strong points of this adaptation.

    The graphics are beautiful, neat, very colorful and very detailed; the animation is fluid and often surprising, and chara design totally seductive. The series arrives from these three episodes to give totally want to pose in front and let his mind travel to the end. The calm atmosphere of this anime and its beauty are a real balm in the heart. However, even if the general plot is peaceful, it creates moments of suspense very easily by breaking the tranquility of the moment by exciting action scenes, playing on very well realized and animated slowdowns. To succeed in plunging the viewer into this fantastic universe, the OST is for something; effectively bringing in the different scene changes. In this, the anime would almost make one think of a Miyazaki! Music that reinforces the presence on screen of its protagonists.

    Ancient-Magus-Bride-01.png

    Elias Ainsworth, despite her disconcerting appearance is resolutely harmless. There is a protective and benevolent aura to his disciple, which contrasts with his physical and power, and the mystery that surrounds him makes him a captivating and charismatic figure (helped by a formidable seiyu).

    Then at his side, Chise Hatori with the atypical personality but for which one develops immediately affection. Her progressive interest in her new life, this undisguised gratitude for what she receives and her sensitivity to the fantasy world makes her a pleasant character to follow. A heroine of shonen as we would like to see more often!

    Also, the unlikely but touching relationship between the two as well as the gap between their personalities creates many humorous situations that make them want to follow their relationship. Finally, each new character brings something important, whether it be an evolution in the relations between Elias and Chise or in the apprenticeship of the latter, but especially of the elements that gradually complete the puzzle of the story we are eager to discover. With a successful immersion in a vast universe and many mysteries to be drilled that immediately arouse our interest: the anime entertains incredibly well.

    Note: 9/10

    "An interesting plot, an idyllic setting and a truly fascinating couple, The Ancient Magus Bride is undeniably one of the essential series of this Fall 2017."
