About Key Princess Story Eternal Alice Rondo

Here is what Key Princess Story Eternal Alice Rondo (鍵姫物語 永久アリス輪舞曲) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, drama and fantasy anime by Picture Magic (2006). In short: Kirihara Aruto loves the stories of Alice, so much so that he begins to write one. One night while writing, he sees a girl out his window who he thinks is Alice.

From there, he follows her, and finds out that she is called a Seeker of Alice, and with the powers granted to her she fights other Seekers of Alice to take their eternal story, in order to find the part that belongs to the Eternal Alice. Throughout Aruto's adventures with Arisugawa Arisu, his little sister Kirihara Kiraha and their various friends they discover more about the land of Alice, about the novels, the man who wrote them, and their own abilities.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Mari Kanou as Kiraha Kirihara and Ai Shimizu as Arisu Arisugawa. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 13 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Picture Magic, which means the visual identity of Key Princess Story Eternal Alice Rondo follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on action, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 5.7/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Voice casting, including Mari Kanou as Kiraha Kirihara, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. It aired in 2006, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
