English Dub Review: Anne Shirley “When I Think Something Nice Is Going to Happen, I Seem to Fly Right Up On the Wings of Anticipation”

Overview

After a chapter of accidents, Anne gets her wish in the way it often happens…

Our Take

This time around, Anne finds herself at the center of a lively and eventful day, full of high hopes, heartfelt intentions, and the kind of well-meaning chaos only she could attract. From preparing for a long-anticipated visit to juggling the responsibilities of household life, she brings her usual enthusiasm and creativity along with just a hint of overthinking. 

The rest of the proceedings excels in a “comedy of errors” sort of way, where small blunders snowball into legitimately funny moments, all underscored by Anne’s sincerity and flair for dramatics. There’s something particularly charming about watching her try to keep everything in order while things spiral beyond her control. Yet, even through the slip-ups, Anne’s resilience and humor turn each misadventure into something relatable yet grounded in reality.

Overall, this episode blends humor and heart in a way that feels both familiar and refreshing. It captures the essence of growing up not just in age but in understanding oneself and others. With a balance of light comedy and quiet emotional beats, it continues to show why Anne’s world remains so endearing: it’s full of imperfections, lessons, laughter, and warmth.
