The art style, character designs, and soundtrack of the show are what makes this show a treat. If you're into artistic elements like these, this is what makes me recommend Delico's Nursery.
- There is a balance between child rearing and dark fantasy, I found that these elements were balanced well compared to other works that try something similar. While some shows introduce children as a gimmick and then entirely focus on the " action " part, Delico's Nursery (DN) included the children in pretty much every episode and I believe they played pretty crucial roles, even if they are simply children.

lovely! There's so much texture and and I'm in love with how the characters were designed. I've seen shows were the first episode will start with a striking art style to draw an audience in but the quality drops so badly during the later episodes. DN didn't have any of that, they were consistent with using the style they chose and I loved it.
- Quite a decent amount of fight scenes? Sometimes I'll watch shows that are meant to have fight scenes, and then there's this one(1) wonky CG animated scene in it. My expectations are really low at this point. They may not be god tier fight scenes but they were pretty good imo
- The original soundtrack... I need it on Spotify ASAP!! The tracks with vocals in them fit the scenes they were used in so well, it made me feel the right amount of emotions at the right time. Great choice to go with the music director they did!
- I think the only gripe I'd have with DN is that there is so much potential world building but they only had time for 13 episodes! I've looked it up and I'm aware the source material is a stage play, and there is a manga, and this anime, that was created based off the original stage play universe. The anime glossed over some things, but personally, I don't think it was too hard to ignore the things glossed over? You just kinda roll with it and enjoy the show for its pretty art and somewhat compelling story. Who knows, maybe the director of the anime didn't think it was worth wasting time to include too many world building bits because there's already an off camera universe readily available for people to experience if they Really wanted to (with the stage plays).
Like another reviewer mentioned, I don't get what's with all the bad reviews of DN. There is no singular show that will suit everyone out there. Reading through other reviews, you can IMMEDIATELY tell who didn't watch the show before leaving a lengthy review that said nothing... (the reviewer who called Angelico a DAUGHTER, tell me you didn't watch the show without telling me you didn't watch the show smh)
