emily ashby, writing for common sense media, calls the series an "exceptional" and "spectacular" interpretation, giving it four out of five stars. tasha cerny, contributor for the tracking board, praises the cinematography as lush and colourful, the characters vibrant, and the plot "surprisingly thrilling for a story about a young girl living in a small secluded community in the late nineteenth century. i laughed, i cried, and i didn't expect either from a show about a little girl." gwen inhat of "the a.v. club" calls the series "at once darker and sweeter than the original" novel, praising the core cast, reserving the highest for the series lead: "amybeth mcnulty defies her youth with a performance that's less a portrayal of anne than an absolute possession. it can't be easy to make anne's fanciful language sing the way she does, and mcnulty captures the endearing awkwardness that enables anne to win over everyone she comes in contact with." writing of the 90-minute premiere episode for the "toronto star", johanna schneller was appreciative of walley-beckett's departures from the novel, bringing its subtext to the fore: "reading between the novel's lines and adding verisimilitude, she gives us quick but potent glimpses of the miseries many orphans faced in 1890s imperialist culture." hanh nguyen, reviewing the series for indiewire, concurs with this assessment, saying: "rather than ruining the series, they give the context for why anne would be filled with gratitude for the beauties of nature, basic human decency and having a family to call her own. montgomery had based much of anne's need for escape into imagination on her own lonely childhood, and her stories have always had an underlying poignancy that made them all the sweeter." jen chaney, writing for vulture.com, agrees, saying: "what distinguishes it from other previous anne iterations is its willingness to harden some of the story's softness, just enough, to create an element of realism that period pieces, gables-related or not, can be inclined to avoid." neil genzlinger writing for "the new york times", commenting on reports of darkness and grittiness, goes so far as to call the adaptation "richer" than the source material: "ms. mcnulty's anne is still wonderfully ebullient and eminently likable; she's just not the one-dimensional figure of other adaptations". annie hirschlag, writing for mic, suggests that a genuinely contemporary "anne" is bound to reflect the current television landscape and wider culture of its times (the 2010s): "since today's entertainment is peppered with antiheroes — characters who are far from perfect, even occasionally villainous — it makes sense that anne's familiar idealism is fringed with darkness and agony."
