It's like Jane Austin anime.

timepiececlock::in the middle of episode 2 of Victorian Romance Emma::
This anime is very liesurely paced, and no one's died yet, and no one's able to magically change their appearance or turn iron into gold, and no one carries a sword, and no one's so much as yelled at each other yet....there hasn't even been a fist fight. Much less blood & guts, action, political intrigue, or people turning into ducks.
You know why I like this anime?
I don't know either. But I do. In fact, I kinda sorta love it.
I'm going to need to find episodes 4 and on soon...
EDIT: it could be the fact that two months ago I actually got to go ballroom dancing in costume (I used my senior prom dress) with other people in costume and a live band. In an old theater with a large, old-style ballroom.
And it's weird but, if you get a bunch of guys who've all been taught to ballroom dance and put them in tuxes and put them in a room with a live band, you do get asked to dance no matter what you look like, and it is fun. It's really, really fun. And swirly. And pretty.
Note: Fast polka waltzing with someone who knows what they're doing? FUNNEST. THING. EVER. ...YOU TWIRL. A LOT.
