At the beginning of the episode, Anne receives a letter from Priscilla, her friend from Queen's Academy, informing her that Mrs. Morgan, her distant relative and famous novelist, will be visiting Green Gables. The protagonist is thrilled with the news and prepares a lovely lunch and charming decorations.
Anne invites Miss Stacy, her former high school teacher, to lunch with the novelist. The protagonist asks Davy and Dora to behave on the occasion and, as a reward, promises to take them on a boat trip. However, the special guest twists her ankle and is unable to attend the lunch prepared by Anne, which leaves the girl deeply upset.
Despite Davy's unintentional mischief, Anne is proud that the boy made an effort and tried to behave properly. Therefore, she keeps her promise and takes Davy and Dora for a boat ride. Anne also invites Gilbert, who wins over the twins in just a few minutes. The girl also seems charmed by him. Thus, it's possible that a romance between the two will blossom soon.
Anne comforts Paul during a difficult time
While Anne is at the cemetery visiting Matthew's gravestone, she encounters Paul, her student, who is leaving flowers for his grandfather and mother. The boy confides in Anne about his grief, and she acts as a safe haven for him. From the beginning of her journey as a teacher, the protagonist makes it clear that she truly cares about her students and wants to be an important figure in their lives.
Anne Shirley isn't an anime with an unusual plot, nor does it offer scenes of unrestrained fighting and action. However, the work provides comfort and satisfaction in following the growth of a formidable protagonist who sees beauty and value in every little thing in life.
An unexpected visit surprises Green Gables
While Anne is cleaning the house with Davy, she decides to use some of her freckle-reducing lotion. However, she mixes up the bottle and uses Marilla's red dye. At that moment, the doorbell rings and the protagonist receives an unexpected visit. Mrs. Morgan, who has quickly recovered from her sprained ankle, decides to go to Green Gables.
The scene marks an important moment for the protagonist. Besides meeting the novelist, she realizes that her freckles are not a flaw. Just like the red tone of her hair, the freckles are part of who she is. In this way, Anne overcomes what happened and even jokes with the guests about her lack of skill with paints.
Beyond the surprising character, Anne Shirley delights with its animation, produced by The Answer Studio , which, despite its simplicity, is captivating and reminiscent of paintings on canvas. However, the characters and animation are not the only details that spark interest. The plot is also a strong point of the work, as following the childhood and adulthood of a character generates depth and closeness with the audience.
