Long before the series' action, a writer named Drosselmeyer, whose stories became reality, had his hands cut off and was killed by those fearing his power. Because Drosselmeyer's final story was left unfinished, the prince and raven in the story were trapped in an eternal battle. After many years had passed, the raven broke free from the story into the real world, and the prince pursued to seal him away again. To do so, the prince shattered his own heart with his sword. Drosselmeyer had written about himself before he died, and managed to continue to control events despite his death. When he sees a duck watching the sad, heartless Prince Mytho dancing on the water, Drosselmeyer decides to let the story take a new course, and, giving her a magical necklace, transforms the duck into a human girl named Ahiru, so that she might find a way to help the prince. As long as she possesses the necklace with its red egg-shaped jewel, she can transform into a girl. However, if she quacks, she becomes a duck again. She can return to her girl form if she comes into contact with water.

Oh, wow. I didn't even know this thread was here.
I looooooooooooooooooooooove Princess Tutu. I've rewatched it way too many times. It's up there in my top animes. The animation and art weren't that great, but the story is just <3 <3 <3. The ending was shit. Why. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT. I cried at a few parts throughout the story.
Despite its name, PT wasn't as light hearted as most people think. The first episodes are very fun and such, but as you get farther, you realize the darker notes in the plot beyond the colorful art. You can't help but think, "...that's fucked up," at some parts.
