Initially on opposite sides, Ange and Charlotte join forces as part of the quintet known as White Pigeon, along with Dorothy, a 20-year old driver whose developed body comes in very handy during missions, Beatrice, Charlotte’s ditzy aide with an implanted voice box constructed by her engineer father that can duplicate any voice, and diminutive ninja girl Chise, whose acclimatising to British culture provides some cute, pithy humour. This facet is intrinsic to the mystery and intrigue of the central story in providing many red herrings and avenues for the clever twists and turns for the final arc when Control, the organisation employing the schoolgirl spies, issue their deadliest mission yet. Most misleading of all, if one takes the title literally, is that Charlotte isn’t the main focus of the story – that honour befalls to Ange, the highly adaptable spymaster and the double of Charlotte.

To that end, the opening episode is the show’s mission statement to give us a taste of what to expect for the remainder of the run. Preconceptions also need to put aside when considering the decision to run the episodes in a largely non-chronological order which can be confusing to see cast members being introduced after we’ve already seen them in action. Don’t be misled by the cutesy art designs of the main female cast, there is plenty of depth to their characters and the individual stories that slowly build to the revelatory, but teasingly open climax.

Why on earth would Charlotte do such a thing? That is for her to know and us to find out in this tale of intrigue, espionage, politics, and steampunk action from the pen of Ichiro Okouchi, the writer of Code Geass.

Now split in two by a huge wall running through London, the bifurcated Albion is now the Kingdom and the Commonwealth.Īfter years of peace, the Commonwealth launches a project called Operation Changeling, in which they plan to switch the Kingdom’s Princess Charlotte is replaced with a look-a-like from their ranks. Set in an alternate version of Britain at the turn of the 20 th century called Albion, London has been divided following a proletariat uprising against the royal family over their monopoly of a special anti-gravity substance called Cavorite that made them a powerful global force. I don’t have much time for our royal family, as treacherous as that may sound, but I can guarantee that the Princess Charlotte of Cambridge fawned over by our press will never be as cool or as productive as the Princess Charlotte in this anime original series.
