Shirayuki was a young girl born with unique apple-red hair. She meets a famous but foolish Prince Raji, who falls in love with her at first sight and orders her to become his concubine. With nowhere else to go, Shirayuki cuts her hair and escapes to a neighboring country. While traversing through the forests, she meets a young boy, Zen, who helps her after she boldly cures his wounds but then gets poisoned by an apple given to Shirayuki. Meanwhile, Prince Raji sends out henchmen to search for her. What will happen to Shirayuki? What is Zen's true character? A refreshing fantasy story between an optimistic heroine and a prince who constantly stays on her watch.

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
prettyluminita I would suggest watching if you like simple ,still interesting stories / cute non narcissistic people fall in love and ,at the same time one ,of the few anime series that has integrity.The plot is interesting and the characters are more than just pretty faces . The characters have emotions and life stories , making them likeable and relatable.It's not just another snow white story ( even if the first episode makes some references to the original ) this is a hole new and fantastic WORLD.The TheEireReviewer is not telling you the truth , his review is absolutely nonsense.
Irishchatter I really thought this was brillant. I love the fact it concentrates on a girl Shirayuki whose hair has some kind of special powers and meets her forever Prince charming Raji. They both were so cute together! This seriously would definately beat Romeo and Juliet for me, it just stands out so much better. I suggest couples who are anime fans and haven't seen this, WATCH IT! It was so good including the fairytale action around the story. I give this a 8/10 <3
Tweekums Protagonist Shirayuki, a herbalist, is in many ways just an ordinary person but her bright red hair sets her apart from everybody else in the Kingdom of Tanbarun. Her hair attracts the attention of the lecherous Prince Raji who demands that she becomes one of his concubines. She cuts her hair and flees to the neighbouring Kingdom of Clarines. Here she meets Prince Zen and after he eats a poisoned apple that was meant for her she cures him. She then continues the capital and starts working as a herbalist there. She frequently visits her new friend the prince in the castle leading to some opposition from those who believe that Prince Zen shouldn't be consorting with a commoner. They try to block her access to the castle but when she is accepted as a trainee court pharmacist she moves to the castle. As the series progresses she uses her skills and helps various people; she still isn't fully accepted though and hair makes it hard for her to pass unnoticed. She still sees Zen regularly and their relationship gradually develops to the point where it is obvious that they have feelings for each other that are greater than just friendship.This may be a shoujo series but that doesn't mean that only girls are likely to enjoy it. Shirayuki is a likable central character and her red hair does make her stand out from the rest of the cast. She isn't the only good character though; Prince Zen is a good male lead and the secondary characters that surround him are rather fun. There are also some good villainous characters who threaten the relationship between Shirayuki and Zen; these are mainly fairly pantomime villains rather than anything really scary; we know that such villains will never succeed. The story is enjoyable with a good mix of drama and fairly chaste romance… since the series is primarily aimed at a female audience there is no fan service or innuendo to speak of which makes a refreshing change. Overall I found this to be a charming series and look forward to the second season, which is apparently due out next year.These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
