Snow White With Red Hair Characters

Okay, let's talk about something important. It's about animated characters. And it involves a certain fairytale princess with fiery locks.
I have a confession. Maybe it's an unpopular opinion. But I think Snow White With Red Hair characters are way more interesting than OG Snow White's crew.
The Obvious: Shirayuki vs. Snow White
First, let's be real. Shirayuki isn't just sitting around waiting for a prince. She's an herbalist! She's making her own way in the world.
Classic Snow White? Adorable, sure. But mostly cleaning and singing with birds.
I mean, no shade to Disney. But Shirayuki's got a job! A purpose! She's practical.
Plus, her red hair? Seriously striking. It’s a bold statement that says, "I'm not your average damsel."
The Prince Charming Showdown: Zen vs. The Prince
Now, let's compare the princes. Zen Wistalia is no damsel-rescuing, kiss-the-sleeping-princess type.
He's a prince, yes, but he's also a total goofball. He climbs castle walls and escapes his duties.
The original Prince just shows up at the end. Kisses Snow White. Done. Where's the personality?
Zen's got depth. He genuinely cares about Shirayuki. Their relationship feels more earned, more real.
And Then There's Obi...
Okay, Obi deserves his own section. He's the bodyguard with a soft spot for Shirayuki.
He's loyal, skilled, and hilarious. Plus, the unrequited love thing adds a layer of complexity.
Honestly, sometimes I ship Obi and Shirayuki more than Zen and Shirayuki. Don't @ me.
The Quirky Supporting Cast
The original dwarves are cute. But let's talk about Snow White With Red Hair's supporting characters.
Mitsuhide and Kiki? Total pros. They're loyal and skilled and have their own storylines.
They add so much to the world. They're not just background noise.
They are integral to Zen's security, and are important to Shirayuki's adjustment to life in the castle.
Overall, it's the character development that wins me over.
These characters have flaws. They learn and grow. They feel like real people (well, as real as animated characters can be).
Final Thoughts: A Matter of Taste
Look, I'm not saying the original Snow White is bad. It's a classic for a reason.
But Snow White With Red Hair gives us something more. Stronger female lead. More engaging prince. And a vibrant supporting cast.
Maybe it's a matter of preference. Maybe I'm just drawn to redheads. But I stand by my opinion.
Give Shirayuki and her crew a chance. You might just agree with me.
What do you think? Am I completely off base?
