Fate/kaleid liner Prizma Ilya Episode 1 - Birth of a Magical Girl

A spin-off of the Fate series. When I read about Fate/kaleid liner (F/kl) , I was first excited, but reading the basic plot quickly turned my excitement to a strange, neutral feeling. I enjoyed Fate/stay night (F/sn) and Fate/Zero (F/Z) when I watched them, but this was due to the action-driven plot in the former and the the thought out characters in the latter. In this, however, it is quite evident that the plot will not have a deep storyline like the two series mentioned before. Also, the fact that Ilyasviel von Einzbern, commonly known as Ilya, is the main character was a turn-off, due to the fact I found her quite annoying in F/sn.

Regardless, I started watching the series to find that it definitely wasn't going to be terrible. The art was slightly childish, but that was dismissable, given the theme of the story and the precedent Puella Magi Madoka Magica (PMMM) had set within me, which told me that a good plot can change your entire impression the art gives you about the anime you are watching.
