‘Anne Shirley’ Breaks a Key Element of Coming-of-Age Anime That Makes It Better Than the Rest

Most of the time, an anime is adapted from a manga or a light novel, and they follow a set pattern. But when a show gets inspired by a classic novel, the results are varied and often exceptional.
In this season of anime releases, we have a show called Anne Shirley, which is based on the character Anne, first introduced in Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery. It is a coming-of-age story as we look into the journey of Anne, who starts her life as an orphan.
