Alice in Wonderland is a frequent source of inspiration for anime. Neo-Venezia can be described as a wonderland, although it doesn’t have the same sinister contradictions of Lewis Carroll’s creation. And it would be Akari who has fallen down the rabbit hole. This Alice is a child of Aqua, the world of dreams, who has found herself living among humans. Nevertheless, the junior undine still shares with her namesake a wild imagination and stubborn curiosity.

Through the looking glass |
The lesson here is one of patience, something that Alicia has in abundance. Of course she gets a completely different answer than if she had asked Akira or Athena. But they each have their specialties that the girls can learn from, such as the strength exercises during the island camping trip. No one person is qualified to teach everything. It’s the encounters with many different people, and persistent learning that comes from it that makes a complete education.

That smile is more intimidating than any scolding |
What makes Alice charming is that she has the intelligence to understand this, but the willfulness to ignore it. In the end, she just wanted to see Alicia get angry. So she had to try one more time to test her patience, even though she knew it wouldn’t work.
