Netflix Lists The Grimm Variations Anime for Release in India
posted on by Adriana Hazra
The six-part anime will debut on Netflix on April 17.
Netflix describes the anime:
Once upon a time, brothers Jacob and Wilhelm collected fairy tales from across the land and made them into a book. They also had a much younger sister, the innocent and curious Charlotte, who they loved very much. One day, while the brothers were telling Charlotte a fairy tale like usual, they saw that she had a somewhat melancholy look on her face. She asked them, "Do you suppose they really lived happily ever after?"The pages of Grimms' Fairy Tales, written by Jacob and Wilhelm, are now presented from the unique perspective of Charlotte, who sees the stories quite differently from her brothers.
The manga creator group CLAMP (X, Card Captor Sakura) is drafting the original character designs and drew the teaser visual at right. Michiko Yokote (Bleach, Gintama, xxxHOLiC) is writing this anthology of six stories that re-interprete Grimm's Fairy Tales while retaining their dark elements. According to Variety, the anime will introduce a "modern twist" to The Brothers Grimm's Fairy Tales, and it will have elements of the horror and suspense genres.

Netflix announced its partnership with CLAMP in early 2020. CLAMP has produced 20 character designs for the project.
