English Dub Review: Anne Shirley “One Can’t Stay Sad Very Long in Such an Interesting World”

Overview

Anne invites Diana to tea, but a mix-up with bottles could make it their last meeting as friends…


Our Take

This episode continues to showcase Anne’s passionate nature and the strength of her closest friendship, as an honest mistake causes unexpected conflict. Emotions run high as Anne navigates feelings of guilt, loyalty, and the pain of separation, all while trying to make things right in her own, dramatic way. Her return to school brings new challenges, but also moments of growth and connection with her classmates.

Later on, a serious emergency tests Anne’s resolve and resourcefulness. Her actions during this critical moment leave a lasting impression on those around her and play a pivotal role in shifting others’ perceptions of her. Through compassion, quick thinking, and determination, Anne finds a path to redemption and proves her worth in ways no one anticipated.

Overall, the episode captures the intense loyalty and affection between Anne and Diana despite the troubles they both encounter. While the storytelling moves quickly—perhaps too quickly for some—the emotional stakes remain compelling, bolstered by gorgeous visuals and music. Anne’s wild imagination, fierce love, and ability to grow in the face of conflict make her a standout, while Matthew’s quiet support is just as admirable. It’s an episode that swings from heartbreak to healing, and for many, it was the most touching one yet.
