Note: This is a review of the Funimation English dub of Snow White with the Red Hair.

Also: This is a review of Season One and Season Two of this series. Season One has barely any content issues. Season Two had more of note. Still, as a whole, I viewed the anime as being incredibly clean.

Violence / Gore:
One character beats people with a whip (violently). There are some sword fights. People get cut (usually on the face) and there is some blood shown. Some fights result in loss of life (mostly in season two). Despite the setting (knights, kings) there are not too many battles like this.

Nudity / Sexual Content:
A girl is nearly forced to be a concubine against her will. It’s not really detailed what this would entail.
A guy jokes about another guy falling in love with him. He was not being serious. He later jokes about how his trust was broken when he sees that a character is sleeping in another guy’s room (due to an odd set of circumstances). This character is clearly joking in these situations, but I thought I’d err on the side of caution by mentioning it.
One character jokes about showing someone a girl’s sleeping quarters. One lady wears midriff-baring clothes. Otherwise, most characters in this show are very well covered!
There is a bathhouse episode which does show shirtless male characters. One of these guys jokes about peeking in on the ladies who are bathing.
A girl bathing is shown sitting in water. The very top of her cleavage is shown.

Potentially problematic theological themes:
There is a brief mention of an “evil spirit.” Otherwise, I can’t think of anything else of note here.

Other potentially problematic themes:
A girl accidentally drinks alcohol and gets drunk. Some other people are shown drinking alcohol. At one point some background characters are shown inebriated, with red faces, and some of them look passed out.
There is mild swearing – maybe 15 total from both seasons combined. Mostly the d-word. A few instances of the male-dog expletive. The “OMG” phrase is used one time. Most of the swearing takes place in the second season.

* I must say that Snow White with the Red Hair was a breath of fresh air to me. Beautiful! I became fond of every character. This anime can be slow – not a lot of action here. BUT. This anime was not boring. How to describe…. Shirayuki reminds me of Tohru Honda from Fruits Basket. She tries so hard, and I wanted her to succeed. Her blossoming romance with Zen was absolutely adorable. I truly enjoyed seeing their character growth. Same with Obi. Same with Raj. Basically, great character growth in this anime. Not to mention that I did not have much to worry about content-wise. Snow White with the Red Hair was splendid. It just might be one of my top anime favorites.

Violence: There is occasional violence, usually in the context of fighting bandits with swords. Characters occasionally get cut on the face, though a few get stabbed and die. The second season involves characters being whipped as a torture method, though the scene is brief. Violence is generally infrequent.

Sex and Nudity: In the first episode, a prince wants to take Shirayuki as a concubine against her will. Nothing comes of it, and it isn't mentioned again after that episode. In fact, the show doesn't even go into what a concubine is. There are also a few suggestive jokes here and there, though they are quite tame.

Theological Themes: None.

Problematic Themes: Eh, a 3 might be a bit high for this one, but I'll play it safe. Language is kept to your usual mild swear words. The characters drink alcohol on a few occasions. One episode involves one character accidentally getting drunk, though it is handled tastefully.

Overall: It was really cute! It was interesting to see a romance anime where the characters were able to talk through their issues with maturity, and they had careers to deal with. The first season was a lot of cute, wholesome interactions and the characters going about their sunshiney lives. The most serious antagonists are the random nobles who don't want our protagonists to be together. The second season has a bit more of a plot, as Shirayuki becomes entangled in a human trafficking ring. I liked the second season a bit better, since I liked the plot, and the few episodic episodes thrown in there were pretty funny or character relevant.

Shirayuki, our protagonist, is hard-working, stubborn, and strong-willed. She wants to make decisions for herself and forge her own path. Zen, the prince of Clarines, is actually pretty similar. He wants to rule the kingdom in his own way and hates being confined to the hierarchy of nobles. However, he's less mellow than Shirayuki and seems to be easily irritated. Then we have the three attendants, the charismatic Obi, the snarky Kiki, and the devoted Mitsuhide. Obi by far gets the most screen time and character development, though. Prince Izana, Zen's older brother, is the ideal prince, though his motives in our characters' lives are a bit enigmatic. Finally, we have Prince Raj, who starts off the series as a vain, self-centered, spoiled brat, and emerges as a young man, striving to become a better ruler.

All of the main characters get a bit of development or backstory, which was nice. Raj, Shirayuki, Zen, and Obi in particular grow a lot. One thing I wish happened was that Kiki and Mitsuhide were fleshed out more as characters, particularly Kiki. We don't know too much about her until the very end, and even then it isn't much. It's a shame, since she has the most interesting personality out of all of them. While Mitsuhide does get more of a backstory than Kiki, I would like to see more of his life that doesn't revolve around Zen. Hopefully the two of them are more fleshed out in the manga. (Obi's little teasing remarks have also made me prone to shipping them. They'd be cute.)

The art was really pretty, especially in the opening and ending themes. The color pallet was perfect for the tone of the show, as well. The music was pretty nice, too.

For the suggested age, I do not know why it's rated TV-14. I'd think PG would be more accurate, given how clean it is. I'll say preteens and up, though older children could enjoy it.
