Storybook Episode: Difference between revisions

* One [[Show Within a Show|Short Story Within A Short Story]] in the ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya (Literature)|Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' novels takes this form after Haruhi asks Mikuru to write a fairy tale complete with illustrations for the Literature Club's magazine. The illustrations are all [[Super -Deformed]] depictions of the SOS Brigade members ([[My Friends and Zoidberg|and Tsuruya-san]]) as storybook characters such as [[Snow White (Literature)|Snow White]] (Haruhi) and the seven dwarfs (''[[Me's a Crowd|all]]'' [[Me's a Crowd|Yuki]]), [[The Little Mermaid|a mermaid]] (Mikuru), and [[Prince Charming|a prince]] (Kyon).

* ''[[Fringe]]'': Excellently done in "Brown Betty" where Walter tells young Ella a story. Instead of a generic fantasy tale, he casts her aunt Olivia as the heroine of a film Noir mystery full of [[Schizo -Tech]], in which characters (and corpses) break out in song.
