Anime Project of Light Novel 'Sugar Apple Fairy Tale' in Progress

I've never managed to read the entire LN, but I've read the manga adaptation and was amazing... This anime adaptation is really well deserved. I'm so hyped now...

Seems fantasy slice of life anime. The story sounds generic but the art in the LN is good

OH wow, finally something really original (though the source is not).

This is quite surprisng though. If the anime could also wrap up the LN that would be the perfect Sugar sweetness of a work.

Oh, I just read this for this year's Manga Reading Challenge! It wasn't amazing, but it's one of the better shoujo fantasy I've been reading lately (mostly isekais lol and this one isn't). It isn't a slice of life series, it's an adventure.. at least the part in the manga since they've only adapted the 1st part of the story. Interested to see if the anime will adapt more or maybe even the completed story since the novel is completed.

This one seems to be actually boring compared to last few SoL fantasy titles being announced. It reminds me of something on the level of the old Marl Kingdom games but just not as interesting.

Eeehhh.. this sounds and looks familiar...
I have a feeling I've read the novel/manga. But can't exactly remember anything... Oh well, I'll see how it goes~

This seems rather interesting. As long as it's aimed toward a young audience, and doesn't have any sex or extreme violence, I'll definitely check it out.

Ohh the sypnosis sounds interesting! Gonna give it try, glad more fantasy shoujo like this get adapted!

oh wow this announcement is a pleasant surprise for three main reasons:
1) this, or at least the manga is, a shoujo seriously we've been lacking those a lot lately
2) this is somewhat fairy-tale inspired which i never thought the industry would try to do again
3) believe it or not the industry is FINALLY producing something i actually frickin recognize

...yeah, i meant that last part seriously.
i read a tiny bit of the manga adaptation 2 years ago. don't remember much of it since i read so little of it back then, so even if i wanted to be mean for some reason, i thankfully can't spoil you guys, gals, and pals... i'm not going to put this on my PTW list quite yet cuz i want to wait for staff announcement and PVs, but just know that i'm finally even the slightest bit announcement for a new anime after a while. this is also good cuz that means the light novels and manga have a good chance of getting releases outside of Japan so i don't have to rely on potentially scattershot fan translations anymore.

@Psajdak you made that thread on fairy tale theme working in 2020s anime a while ago, ik this isn't adaptation of classics but thoughts?

the manga adaptation is pretty obscure even on the shoujo side, so i think i might be able to at least answer a few questions based on my limited knowledge and memory on it.

is this what you mean by slow life?
"These manga feature characters who have had their fill of excitement, adventures, and drama, and seek a more peaceful life. They may be Isekai'd heroes, villains, high-ranking adventurers, or a typical salaryman, but they all share something in common: they've had enough and want to retire to a slow and peaceful life." (from Anime-Planet)

because i clearly remember the manga being more about the heroine and fairy companion traveling
so no this is not a slow life light novel series
this is definitely not isekai either which i think will be a breath of fresh air

agreed

totally agreed, i think this is actually your type considering your taste and what the manga's like

you're not wrong for feeling that way, but i think you should try and check it out. or at least give the manga a quick read.

I'll check this out solely because I have a feeling that it could turn out great

I hope this turns out good. I can’t help but be skeptical of a novel that had 17 volumes written over a mere 5 years.

The two paragraphs of the synopsis sound like entirely different shows. That doesn't bode well, so I'll quit while I'm ahead and skip it.

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale in itself sounds like something I really want to watch lol.

The latest LN adaptations with female protagonists have been so moe-ish that it's even unusual for me to see the new LN shoujo talk about both female and male characters.

Sooo glad more light novels targeted at a female demographic are being adapted! Definitely adding to my PTW and hope this trend continues! ^-^

An LN that ended 6 years ago getting an anime is quite the surprise.

I think I read some of it a while ago- I confess I can't remember exactly what happened, but it was decent. Depending on the quality of adaptation, this has potential

Looks interesting hmmm bunch of light novel getting anime announced today out of nowhere could this lead to death mage anime? find out in next episode of dragon ball z

Damn, a finished light novel getting an adaptation? This must be good then.
