Recommended anime: Dantalian no Shoka

Dantalian no Shoka is an ongoing anime which started 16th. july. The animation is directed by Yutaka Uemura and music by Yo Tsuji. The genre is fantasy.

"After the death of his grandfather, Hugh Anthony Disward, also known as Huey, receives a mysterious key and according to his will, must take custody of the Bibliotheca Mystica de Dantalian in order to inherit his estate and all his possessions. Upon meeting Dalian, a child living at the estate, he learns that she is the guardian of the Archives which contain forbidden knowledge stored in thousands of magic books called "Phantom Books". Upon agreeing to become Dalian's new Keykeeper, Huey joins her into investigating incidents regarding people misusing the power of the Phantom Books, most of them with tragic consequences, and using his power as Keykeeper to seal the power of the Phantom Books and restore order to the area."

Dantalian no Shoka was on my top list of the summer releases. The art is good, but I am no to fond of the characters. Still, I fell in love with the second main character, Dalian. She is a really cute and clever girl though she is extremely arrogant. The plot in the series is okay, but the time period really makes me think about Gosick and does no quite fit my taste since I rather prefer the more modern surface. The flow of the story is great so it doesn't really matter in the end.
