A Fairy Tale of the Finest Form, April 21, 2001
By A Customer
Shamantic Princess is an anime series that you don't want to miss. With stunning animation, a complicated yet involved plotline, wonderfully dedicated characters and a world in which I would love to live in this series is not soon forgotten. Tiara, a Shamantic Princess is obligated by honor, and duty to protect the Guardian World. Bright, enthusiastic and beautiful she is friends with Sara (another magic holder) and in love with Kagatsu, Sarah's brother. Unbeknownst to Tiara there are "kinks" in her perfect world. Sara seems to come down with a terrible malady, Kagatsu is besides's himself with worry and Lina another friend of Sarah's also seems strangely involved with the entire situation. As the story unforlds, loyalties will be tested, love will reveal itself and the strange mysteries and dangers of the Guardian World will show themself for what they truly are. One of the most important elements of the Shamantic Princess series is the in depth nature of it's characters. We see Tiara who holds emense power and yet is only a spoiled child who must, through obstacles become a mature woman. We learn her nature and we cry and root for her as she comes into her own. This series is NOT to be overlooked. It is by far one of the most stunning and involved anime series you will ever see. Get lost within the mysticism of Shamantic Princess

An Awesome Anime Pick!, June 22, 2000
The Shamanic Princess is one ofmy favorite anime series of all time. It consist's of a 6 part collection. Typical of most OAV series, inwhich this one is. The character design of this anime is AWESOME! Done by the same artists behind the smash-hit Magic Knight Rayearth. The Shamanic Princess follows Tiara, a girl with powers guided by her side kick who is a ferret! How cute! It's about the duo's search for a kidnapped girl named Sara. It is a very good anime, plot line, animation, voice acting. It's a defenant pick for a TRUE anime fan!

Not that great, but you might like it, August 24, 2000
This review is from: Shamanic Princess: Tiara's Quest [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Of course it's only my opinion that this isn't the best anime I've seen. Your mileage may vary - your tastes necessarily don't equal mine. Anyways, here's my take on Shamanic Princess: First, let me define something here. "Shaman: A member of certain tribal societies who acts as a medium between the visible world and an invisible spirit world and who practices magic or sorcery for purposes of healing, divination, and control over natural events. - shamanic." In other words, this is an anime about a princess that has powers over the this world and the paradimension. Although Shamanic Princess has some excellant animation and great dubbing, I found the storyline/action to be missing something. The effects were really good, but the anime itself couldn't hold my attention very much. The only thing I can say is you might have better luck with this anime. I didn't find it particularly interesting, but you might. My suggestion: give it a try, you never know.
