A 16-year-old princess ditches the castle to live like a commoner and falls in love with a street thief who leads a band of pickpockets. The show treats this collision of worlds as pure comedy gold, not moral instruction. Anmitsu is too stubborn and too real to stay the romantic ideal her parents want her to be, so she becomes someone actually worth rooting for. The romance doesn't need drama or tragic tension because the funny is in watching a sheltered girl learn that the real world doesn't care about her bloodline. A show built entirely on the energy of a girl choosing chaos and finding herself in it.
Princess Anmitsu is a tomboy who has reached sixteen without any romance in her life, much to her parents' worry. Ignoring their concern, she slips out of the castle to see how ordinary people live. Out in the town she makes friends with a band of children who survive by picking pockets, and she falls for Senbei, the boy who leads them. Trouble comes when she learns their next scheme is to rob the treasures of her own castle. Now she must stop the theft without letting them discover who she really is, in a lighthearted comedy adapted from a manga by Kurakane Shousuke.
