Cinderella Monogatari is not a very recent anime. It does not have the special effects that we are now blessed with having. However, it is blessed with great storytelling and has a nice moral. Both movie (Disney) and story (by Charles Perrault) do not go in great detail about Cinderella's life before she went to the ball. This series tell a great deal, and, not only that, the twists make the story a bit more realistic, in my point of view. Fairy tails are always, or almost, the same and have many common components such as: love at first sight (without even knowing each other),a villain or two defeat and a happy ending.
In my opinion, Cinderella Monogatari changes all of these examples and weaves a story that is so great that you should overlook the fact that perhaps you do not like the ancient aspect of it.

This is my first time writing a review. At first I didn't think much of it as it is a older anime, but I convinced myself otherwise. I Did Wonder what it would of turned out to be like. To my surprise it was a little different then the normal Cinderella stories you hear about, not by much but had a good story that made me want to watch the next episode. Over all the build up of the characters and the ending was good. Seemed at times you couldn't tell their feelings or thoughts clearer, but I liked it in this anime, made forthe suspense of it all.
If you like fairy tales or happy endings this is a good anime to watch.

Cinderella was the only story that my mother told me when i was around 9 years old. So i remembered it clealy. I watched Disney's three movies on Cinderella. But here I would admire Japanese Anime writers creativity. I know that the story is well-known all over the world so no need for retelling. But this anime's uniqueness lies in the serialization of the fairytale story, which is very short. A relationship, especially the one which could lead to marriage, wouldn't be so short-noticed such a " mid-night' party event. In this story the Scenario of Cinderella's daily life and her personality and friendly naturewere shown clearly. Charles's character is new to me. I never knew that he came out of palace with his friend's name to know his citizens (also for his own freedom too) Here it is also shown that Charles had friendly personality, especially in the episode where he befriends a circus group and hints them to get of the nervousness in front of the audience. So overall after looking at the end, it is complete and makes sense that their relationship and decision to marry her is not on a whim.
ART.: OLD style but o.k
I enjoyed it and and gave a score of 9 for creative narration of whole story.

Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella... Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo! - Oh wait, wrong soundtrack.. This is YET another take on the classic story of Cinderella. A story of a young maiden forced to do unendless laborious house work under her own noble home by her wicked stepmother. Yep most of us is very much adept and familiar of how the story of this such pitiful maiden goes; but in this Anime adaptation of this classic tale holds a fine re-telling of the story. What set this apart from the rest is that it gave a much deeper background to Cinderella and the Prince relationship. I'm a sucker for romance and especiallyabout "RAG to RICHES" stories. This series serves just that, with bonus morale lessons about Friendship, Love, Family and other goody values.
In order to fully appreciate this series is that you just have to watch this with an open mind because their is an undeniable HUGE FLAW regarding its plot. Cinderella befriended the Prince in a very ordinary circumstance without realizing he is really the Prince. We get to see them interact throughout almost the entire series that you wish for Cinderella to realize it's the prince all along. But that same flaw made this series the more charming and memorable.
As a viewer you'll grow to love Cinderella and the Prince and root for them until the end. There are alot more aspect in this story that were explained; like why Cinderella can speak to animals around her house. Why does she have a Fairy Godmother and so on.
This was created back in the mid 90's so the animation is dated but you wouldn't care for it too much as it's still a decent quality. Forget about its technical aspect and just go with the flow. You'll adore this kiddie show. Episode 4 sealed the deal for me I knew I would end up loving this show. The ending was near pitch perfect. It really did delivered a satisying conclusion to a perfect story to Cinderella's fairytale.
I am no expert on the original story but I've read and seen different versions of Cinderella and this particular anime shines brightly as Cinderella's glass slippers amongst all of them. While growing up this anime is one of the most memorable series for me. Once in awhile I still view this series for an entire day and I am still as fond and captivated to it as I was back in day.
If you get the chance go watch it. Last time I checked it was still on Youtube. lol

I have always loved the story of Cinderella. This is by far one of the best adaptations I have ever seen. It was such a good story. I loved how the prince and Cinderella met before the ball. The music was great. At times it was a bit louder than the dialogue though. I personally liked the character designs and thought the prince was very handsome. It had a lot of humor, kidnappings, sword fights, and adventures. It was really a great story that I would recommend to everyone.

I started watching this anime because it showed up in my recommended and seemed like a nostalgic watch, which it definitely was despite never having watching this as a child. You can tell this is an older show with a small budget but I honestly enjoyed the outdated sound effects because it reminded me of other shows I used to like. Where I think this show shines though is in storytelling and character writing; sure the baddie is a bit bland (although i like his kind of soft side in regards to his child) and while the redemption for some characters was hinted at itdid come a bit out of nowhere, but Cinderella, Charles, and their relationship are leaps and bounds better than any other Cinderella adaptation I’ve seen, and their relationship has better development than quite a few popular anime ships imo. Some of the side characters (mainly Isabel) are also quite good. I really enjoyed how some of the smaller (filler seeming) episodes came to play into the main story later on and I was able to binge this over a weekend and enjoy it. There could definitely be some improvements to this show but I think it’s a good watch nonetheless (although if you have a thing about good animation I wouldn’t recommend).
Unrelevent side note; I also find it funny how Charles (the prince) looks like a slightly prettier version of Derek (the Swan Princess) and a dark haired version of John Smith (Pocahontas), 90s animation seems to have had a type.

The story is more than impressive , It talks about many things such as: friendship, helping otheres , cairing for otheres , Courage and The most important part of The anime is "Love". It takes abaute cindrella’s story But in a different way , The anime shaw as the Beautiful Relationship Between The prince and cindrella . And more you see the anime The more you love the story . For Me I’v seen these anime When I was a little girl , and Still loving these anime more and more every Time I watch it .

This has got to be my favorite version of the Cinderella Story so far. Now, Cinderella as a character in general is my favorite character, so I'm a little biased. But in every other Cinderella movie, I have never really felt like I've watched Cinderella really progress at all. In general, Cinderella stories are short - Abused girl has to do all the chores, is nice and kind to everybody, isn't allowed to go to the ball, gets magicked into the ball, meets the prince, Glass slipper - it can be summarized very easily. But this show does a very good job of ... notreally dragging it out, just adding more to the characters. More story. I still get to watch and see who Cinderella is and how she reacts in a whole slew of situations without just seeing the abused girl suddenly get to go to a ball.
Now... I think there is one complaint I have about the series. I'll be honest... Cinderella, in this, isn't really the brightest, and the Dialogue is lackluster. Some parts are repetitive and redundant, and there are a lot of flashbacks that I think are a bit needless. Suspension of disbelief is sometimes ... eh. And the animation isn't always the smoothest. You see some obvious cycles in there at points.
But by and large, this is still my favorite version of the story, and there's a lot more character development in this than there is in any other Cinderella, which makes the characters more realistic and more likable... even in the step-sisters sometimes. And there's more plot involved, with some political intrigue here and there. I love it.

I would first like to say that the story isn't the same old one based on Disney which I really liked. the Cinderella in this story is also super sweet but also complains unlike other versions of Cinderella where she just doesn't talk about her struggles, this girl is more open. OK and now the real point of this review... I first watched this anime in dub and I couldn't help but notice that throughout over half the movie, there's a generic bird chirping sound. like in the background noise it's birds chirping I found it super annoying once I noticed it and wonder ifit was the same with the Japanese. I couldn't actually find the Japanese dub of it so idk if it is? it's just a weird thing. It's not just the copy I watched, everywhere that I've seen this movie it's the same lol. But if you can get past that this is actually a really great Cinderella movie.
