Features: The story of "The Light Princess" tells of a beautiful princess who, due to a curse from a witch, loses all weight and becomes simple-minded. Her body is so light that she can only stay in a special lake all day to avoid floating away; thus, the lake becomes her life companion. However, she has no deep perception of things because the curse has robbed her of thoughts. What's more, she cannot live without the lake. Without it, she would feel empty and begin to fall ill. One day, she meets a prince, who quickly falls in love with her. But the Light Princess doesn't know what love is and only laughs foolishly all day. To love her, the prince is willing to sacrifice himself to preserve the lake that sustains the princess. Just as the prince is about to lose his life, the witch's curse breaks because the Light Princess has experienced emotions for the first time in her life.
