Miyuki-chan in Wonderland
Miyuki-chan in Wonderland is unlike any other anime that I’ve seen. Both the Wonderland part and the Mirror-world part are short; short enough that each one has a single song playing in the background throughout. Short enough that Netflix says the entire disc is only 30 minutes long. There’s no real point or plot to Miyuki-chan; it’s anime junk food. That said, pass the Doritos, hand me a box of Pocky, and break open a bag of gummy bears; this anime is just so silly that I can’t help but approve. Those with objections to either lesbianism or fanservice, or those who insist on English dubs, should probably steer clean; I imagine that people who are especially into subtitled lesbians in skimpy outfits have probably already seen Wonderland.
I can’t really give a plot summary for this show; it’s basically Carol Lewis’s Alice in Wonderland done in a Yuri stream of consciousness style. Oh, and all of the characters are women. All of them. And they all think Miyuki is cute. That’s pretty much it, although the Mirror-world installment has a few funny jokes.
All of the artwork is appropriately surreal or sleek. For a particular dominatrix character, it’s both.
Here’s my recommendation: unless you know you’re going to hate it, see Miyuki-chan in Wonderland. It’s just too darn short not to. This is CLAMP at its silliest.
