About Eternal Alice

If you are hunting for a new fantasy series, Eternal Alice (Kagi Hime Monogatari: Eikyuu Alice Rondo) deserves a look (2006). The setup goes like this. At its core: Average high school learner Aruto Kirihara is obsessed with the Alice stories, written in this alternate realm by the enigmatic recluse, Alternite L. Tachyon. One night, while writing his own version of a potential "third book," he sees a girl flying in front of a full moon... and she looks just like the "Alice" in his imagination.

Also worth knowing: Aruto runs out of his house and chases the flying figure from the ground, ending up at a library, where he witnesses her in combat with another costumed girl. So kicks off his sudden introduction to the world of Alices, an elite club of super-powered teenage girls who regularly fight in an extra-dimensional Wonderland in order to steal each other's "hidden stories. When all of the stories have been gathered, they will form the legendary third volume, "Eternal Alice," and the possessor will be granted one wish.

With fantasy at the core, world-building, magic systems and creature design set the tone. This one is best suited to fans of magic, kingdoms and invented worlds.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Picture Magic, Trinet Entertainment, which means the visual identity of Eternal Alice follows that studio's craft. The fantasy focus matters here: world-building, magic systems and creature design set the tone. With a 6.2/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. It aired in 2006, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
