User deep3anime (Score: 8/10):
I saw it 12 years ago when it was telecast-ed in my country India. I heard about the wisdom behind our old generation through the techniques delivered by my grand mother and some elders. But watching this anime made me learn more about such techniques that are useful for daily chores. I felt ignorant and was happy to learn something useful through an anime. Coming to the story, at first i can sympathise myself with the protagonist Amika. But at the same time i wished there could be a little sister like the baby baa-chan. But as the series progressed, i started to admireher grandmother ( before she died) . In my view she did manage an island where she had to live in isolation but still she chose to stand for the creatures of the island. Amika's character represented well the mind-set of every teenage girl. The writer seems to have good observation skills. But Amika's personality changes by the end of the series. nnI recommend any girl who is self-oriented and sad that her wishes are not fulfiiled by her parents and grand-parents are a head-ache. By watching this this kind of girls could start love their grand parents. I wish there were more 'family oriented' anime like this one.
