I cannot recommend this anime to all of you, but to those you like fantasy animes and who aren't ashamed to watch one without any blood. Yep, no blood, although people are dying and sometimes it's really, really dramatic. Erin is a cute character whom you will instantly love because of her cuteness XD
"Young woman" in the description says that Erin will be.. erm, I think 8 years old at the beginning, but she grows older (very rapidly).

So far, there are ~20 episodes and it won't get boring. x3

The story is nicely told and you really feel as if you are being drawn into the world of Erin. There are so many thing happening in the first episodes which will cool down after a while. (Erins mother... ;_;" Nearly made me cry XD") At the moment it's a bit stuck, but I hope that Erin will be a student of this school of John soon, so that she can advance aaaand perhaps then the war will play a bigger role again <..<"
