Earl and Fairy

About Earl and Fairy

If you are hunting for a new adventure series, Earl and Fairy (伯爵と妖精) deserves a look (2008). The setup goes like this. The setup: In the nineteenth century, we find Lydia Carlton living in Scotland, making a living as a fairy doctor. She is one of those rare humans who can see and communicate with fairies.

Also worth knowing: No one believes her. However, Edgar is in need of someone with a vast knowledge of fairy lore, and Lydia is just that person. After rescuing her, he turns into her employer, but there are many secrets and emotions that seem to follow Edgar, who claims to be the Blue Knight's Earl.

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Edgar J. C. Ashenbert (Hikaru Midorikawa) and Lydia Carlton (Nana Mizuki) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Artland, which means the visual identity of Earl and Fairy follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on adventure, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Its 6.7/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre. Voice casting, including Hikaru Midorikawa as Edgar J. C. Ashenbert, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. Released in 2008, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
