Review Croisee in a Foreign Labyrinth





My name is Yune. Look upon my works ye mighty and know adorable.
Sometime in the late 19th century a small girl named Yune traveled all the way to Paris from her home in Japan. She came to live in a blacksmith shop in a shopping arcade with a young man named Claude and his grandfather Oscar. France is a very different country from Japan and Yune has a lot to learn in her new home. Just how will she adapt and learn from her experience?

much huggles upon you
Croisee in the Foreign Labyrinth is a twelve episode (plus one Oav episode) long slice of life show that doubles as a period piece. As slice of life shows go this show is far more of an Iyashikei (soothing feeling) show than an idle comedy show. There is also a fair amount of character drama but overall this show is mostly positive.

Yune fan girl number one
The story centers around Yune and does so to the point that the viewer's opinion of the show probably matches their opinion of Yune. Being that the show takes place in nineteenth century and this show takes good use of the scenery for the viewer's visual pleasure.

Paris is pretty in this show as well
Overall Croisee is good show if you are looking for something that is calming of the nerves but it is a show with a limited appeal to it.

rating the bronze teacup (K On) for being a decent slice of life show that revels in being cute.
