This show was gorgeously done with its visuals and dialogue. It was cute, fascinating, and had surprising depth. The plots were good and well executed but they seemed to be resolved rather quickly. It was almost like a car break check in the story line. The characters all have great personalities that don't blurry together but work together! Which is something great and rare to see! Visually it has some surprisingly touching moments. Honestly it really made me appreciate real sugar art and glass art.
The insanely fast plot at the end with the villain was very disappointing. You don't get to see if build. It's just in your face, ugly for a bit then gone. If it weren't for that it might have had a 8/10 from me, if not higher.

Tbh this anime was random boring and the little romantic scenes of her falling and him catching her were embarrassing and random, but for some reason I couldn't stop watching this anime, it was alsmost so stupid that I couldn't stop watching. So I guess that's good. I'm rating it a 7 just because it's a slow but randomly dramatic anime that makes no sense but it's still interesting to watch especially if there's nothing else to watch. I like putting things on in the background while I draw so this was a great show. Def worth a watch if there's nothing else to watch. I didn't like the ending though because it was an abrupt cliff hanger that showed for a season two. But I don't STINKIN know what else they could do with this show! 12 episodes seems like enough of a girl running around making sugar sculptures and almost getting killed for it. Like what.. but what ev, can't wait for season 2, y'all should watch it!

I loved this so much! It's such an interesting plot and I love the animation! Their chemistry made me kick my feet and feel butterflies in my stomach. But my greatest takeaway is probably how inequality and misogyny were displayed in this anime. The way Anne was treated because of her talent and sex reflect modern society, especially in a male-dominated industry. And I honestly wasn't mad about the ending. Ya'll can just read the manga/novel or something and pick up where you left off. If you hate cliffhangers then don't watch this. If you don't have any plans to read the manga, this is not for you. To ya'll who enjoyed this despite the ending, cheers to you for loving this! We're getting season 2 soon! :D.
This is a charming and cozy anime, I love the relationship between Anne and challe and how it develops throughout the series.
The art style of this anime is beautiful and it really fits the story, the designs of the sugar confections and fairy wings are a highlight for me especially. I love all the outfits the characters wear it really adds to the fantasy aspect of the storym
I think Anne is a really interesting protagonist, she's not perfect but she always tries to do the right thing. I like how she actually has a goal and isn't just another passive character. But challe fen challe is a real standout character, I like how his relationship with Anne evolves as the series goes on how he starts off disliking her but by the end wants to protect her.
It's so nice to finally have another shoujo anime, I feel like we haven't had any in so long and I have absolutely adored every episode of this and I think anyone who enjoys a classic shoujo anime will enjoy this show and the world it is set in.

The story is beautiful, the characters are great and the plot is cleverly crafted. It is truely a fairy tale! Anne is a very interesting protagonist, a character whose strenght lies not in fighting skills but in art, she is a sugar artisan full of compassion and kindness. The world of humans and fairies is not without conflict, but this is what makes the show interesting, we have two different species at odds with each other and despite their differences, there are friendships created and true love blooming. Anne, Challe and the rest deserve a second season and I hope from the bottom of my heart that they will recive it.
The irritating ending made me hate this series. I never saw that coming . I'm honestly disappointed 😞. Until the last episode i was enjoying the series but the last episode made me hate this show. It's very sad depressing cliffhanger ending. I don't even know whether this show will get season 2 or not. I regret watching this show after seeing how it ended. Beginning this show gives the vibe of feel good romance type fairy tale but the last episode of the show suddenly turned it in to sad depressing ending. If I known how this show is going to end i would have started to watch. Honestly don't watch this show thinking it's feelgood romance.

Sugar Apple Slavery Tale purposefully presents an idiotic female protagonist to absolve her of deplorable actions, primarily: Buying a slave. The plot is an excuse for a romance between an edgy bishounen fairy and the self-insert lead. However, Sugar Apple possesses a lot of self-awareness. The show makes an effort to frame slavery as an evil act, and that our heroine is only doing this because she absolutely must-that she definitely wants to treat him well and free him (eventually). Her artificially good natured personality feels like an act, and her moe character design seems engineered to manipulate your expectations. She's not a bad person, she's just ordering her slave because that's what the rules say! It's similar to when a person acts overly nice to you, but they're secretly writing an anime about a cute slave owner.
At the very least, it's intriguing from a meta level! Seeing the writers struggle to evade criticism provides entertainment. On the bright side, the series looks and sounds good so far. J. C. Staff are working within their limits, which means minimal animation to maintain consistent art quality. The water-color background art, expressive character designs, and vibrant colors are really all it needs. On the music side, it's solid as well. Good OP and relaxing ED. The composer's use of chimes for transitions and magic effects really suits the fairy tale aesthetic. If you're immune to slavery apologia, this could make for an entertaining and relaxing watch.
Shoujo is a genre deserving more recognition, this is not the way to do it. From the outside, this apple looks beautiful, but peel back the skin and it is rotten to the core.

I can't give it a 10 as yet as all the English Dub wasn't out and I don't know how it ends - but my heart was moved.
I don't even know why I clicked on this anime, as normally I stay away from animes that look fluffy, I got that wrong for sure.
This anime is warming for the soul. The main character is determined, trusting, and driven by the love her mother installed into her and her sweet nature.
The other protaganist is a fairy who is cautious, guarded it is his defense mechanism. Through the female lead he learns to trust and open his heart to her initially. They learn and grow together as great companions. I am intrigued to see where their story goes and how they overlap.
I'm excited for a second season.

I am loving this anime!! I really hope they make season two. It's magical and unique. I am loving the storyline and the characters so far. The art of this anime is absolutely beautiful and magical. All the sugar art creations are lovely and unique. I love the connection Anne has with her artistic heritage and seeing her unique talent come through is so sweet. She took what her mother passed down to her and is finding her own unique artistic flare with it. I am just loving this so much. I really hope they continue on with this story. I can't wait to see how the characters connections develop along the way.
