Summary
The broadcast series "Bottle Fairy" (2003) takes its name from the four diminutive sprites who live on an adolescent boy's desk: Kururu, Chiriri, Sarara, and Hororo. When Senseisan leaves for school, the fairies go on imaginary adventures appropriate to the month of the year. In June, they play at being bride and spoof soap opera clichés with their shared puppet-husband; they try on bathing suits but never quite get around to swimming in August. Who the fairies are and why they live on Senseisan's desk is never explained. The ultra cute mini-characters recall "A Little Snow Fairy Sugar", but this quartet doesn't cause changes in the human world. The artwork features odd dot patterns in some scenes that suggest a miniature Roy Lichtenstein painting. As each adventure only lasts about 10 minutes, all 13 episodes could easily fit on a single DVD. (Rated 7 and older: cartoon slapstick violence) "--Charles Solomon"
