Yay progress. And one rare show where in the midst of the review, only to be the SOLE representative of such a show like this from start to finish. Now I really want my 4 hours of time-wasted garbage back. This has got to be one of the most obnoxious shows I ever watched, on the levels of bad game-to-anime productions, and don't get me started on the original game that not only was it existent in good ol' Japan, little to nobody has ever heard of this game, much less the show. As the saying goes, good games don't make better adapted mediums, and CircletPrincess here just defies the belief of it all.
The (non-existent) story begins in a futuristic world were current-gen technology such as VR and AR are a commonplace in the show's world, where a new sport was born: Circlet Bout. Utilizing both VR and AR technologies, the eSport has gained popularity in defining the overall skills and abilities of inter-school competition. In comes the "don't worry, be happy" protagonist Yuuka Sasaki, who got sucked into the eSport without much inquiry (or her lack of ignorance), chosen to fight for no reason, then gets into a school (where CB is supported) that has its reputation lost, and her being the protagonist, the happy-go-lucky self begins to inquire people into the club and train alongside her for fights...all to be known that the whole CB thing was just an experiment??? Wow...*come I give you a clap*
Character-wise, I didn't find anything worth appealing about the girls here. It's just a rag-tag team of skills in abilities, recognition and word-of-mouthing. To have Yuuka Sasaki was the MC girl, I'd say the producers went too far to have her being the sunshine to everyone's presence. so much so that as time passes, even with her character development from gaining wins to suffering regretful losses and picking her feet back up again, she's still a character that I definitely can find any resemblance to, and that is an annoying one. Sure, her team members of St. Union (Nina, Ayumu, Reina, Miyuki) made sure to stand alongside her for CB stuff, but by personality and character alone, they would be a good clique group for nothing else rather than the focus on CB. Even Chikage, the supposedly final boss and experimental guinea pig of CB, she always looks stern and fierce.
I was "pretty expectant" of Silver Link's production values on this show, and it's clear from the start that the art and animation was absolutely stunning, to the point of it being barely watchable. It was rough and stringent amidst the decent looking art, with every episode having a majority of repeat frames. Just, try not to squeeze your eyes while watching this.
Music is decently mediocre. That's not to say that this aspect saves the show either. Similar to Pastel Memories, the OP is decent with some good pumping-tunes, and is the highlight for me. And once again, the ED fares much worse. Regardless, a total glut of nothingness.
Due to streaming rights, it's (not so) sad that only the Chinese streaming company bilibili gets the right to broadcast this nonsense. That's OK, as I'd rather be happy with the rest of you to stay clear of this crap-ton garbage of a show.
An OVA full of fanservice would be nice.

'Circlet Princess' has some very fun and cute moments, even better than the action that the anime proposes. Yuuka's obsession with sour plums that no one else can stand for her to eat with a straight face is particularly funny and goes hand in hand with Nina's endless snacks and the silly anguish noises that girls make. The characters in 'Circlet Princess' may have a wide variety of hair colors and battle styles, but their designs are very similar to each other. Circlet Bout's armor adds a special touch and the variety of weapons keeps fights fresh, but the overall designs don't stand out. On the plotof 'Circlet Princess', she is ok, nothing very new. But Circlet sport is an unregulated mess. This frustrated me a little, because sport is the great character of anime, besides this problem, the whole atmosphere of virtual reality is interpreted in a very poor way.
'Circlet Princess' is hampered by its limited budget. The anime is about a sport that revolves around fighting, and fighting requires animated sequences to meet action requirements. Lower budget means less of this and more cuts on people's faces, dialogue during fights and other tricks to try and take action without really showing action.
Overall, 'Circlet Princess' is what I would consider an anime to be slightly below average. The story and comprehensive characters are not at all exciting, due to the anime budget, much of the action also fell short. It's a good time-killing anime, if you don't have anything else to watch, but I wouldn't recommend watching this with so many other anime out there.
