Anyway, great insight into the idea that slice-of-life didn't originate from anime -- I'll definitely keep an eye out for what you mentioned if I ever re-read Little Women in the future, although what I remember of it's enough to affirm your theory. @ IKnight: Never thought I’d see the day where a Brit used “mad props”.

Anyway, great insight into the idea that slice-of-life didn’t originate from anime — I’ll definitely keep an eye out for what you mentioned if I ever re-read Little Women in the future, although what I remember of it’s enough to affirm your theory.

Now you point it out <em>Little Women</em> is rather slice-of-life-ish. I wonder if the Civil War happening offstage (as it were) has a role in putting certain things in everyone's lives on hold. But then it's the war, too, which lies behind the more serious moments in the book. Been a while since I've read it. Hmm, progression and slice-of-life. That's a broad topic, now.

The simple joys of World Masterpiece Theater, and the aural devastation of low-budget Finnish dubbing. Nostalgia is so very sweet.

It has a charming story, a happy end, not so many tragic but rather intriguing characters and of course a great book it is based on. Therefore, I am really glad that there is somebody writing about it! Oh actually Little Women is easily the best WMT series in my book.
