Summary:
Although her name means “snow white,” Shirayuki is a cheerful, red-haired girl living in the country of Tanbarun who works diligently as an apothecary at her herbal shop. Her life changes drastically when she is noticed by the silly prince of Tanbarun, Prince Raji, who then tries to force her to become his concubine. Unwilling to give up her freedom, Shirayuki cuts her long red hair and escapes into the forest, where she is rescued from Raji by Zen Wistalia, the second prince of a neighboring country, and his two aides. Hoping to repay her debt to the trio someday, Shirayuki sets her sights on pursuing a career as the court herbalist in Zen’s country, Clarines.
Akagami no Shirayuki-hime depicts Shirayuki’s journey toward a new life at the royal palace of Clarines, as well as Zen’s endeavor to become a prince worthy of his title. As loyal friendships are forged and deadly enemies formed, Shirayuki and Zen slowly learn to support each other as they walk their own paths. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Review:
Akagami no Shirayuki-hime, is your usual Shoujo anime. Its about a prince that falls in love with a commoner girl that is kindhearted and hardworking. If you’re a shoujo fan you will enjoy the anime. Personally I enjoyed the adventure of the anime, the romance was typical. The side characters had interesting personalities which is what I enjoyed as well. Oh the ending wasn’t bad either. Other than that the anime is quite average. It is made for Shoujo fan so.
