Bottle Fairy - Spring & Summer (Vol. 1)
The broadcast seriesBottle 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 recallA 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
