R.O.D TV?

Nope. Not Read or Die either.

Recap of hints so far:

In this juicy anime, fairy tale characters fight against each other in a battle of
good and evil with the fate of the worlds of both magic and science at stake.

The trio of heroines must protect a young boy who is the key to this
struggle from the evil forces sent by a pair of siblings under the control of
a character you normally wouldn't expect to be on the evil side.

New hint:
The name of one of these colorful heroines appears in the title of the show.

Bah! You were talking about this one last night. X| But google is not my friend. :l

Guys, the characters in this one are quite literally fairy tale characters. The bad guys include Cinderella and Hansel and Gretel.

Well, no luck with this one.

The answer is Otogi-Jushi Akazukin or Fairy Musketeer Akazukin.

Since no one got it, I'll designate JWR as the next in line to give a clue as I
felt his guesses were the closest.

Hmm...sort of a generic setup, but the first one that pops into my head is
Figure 17.

Even with that generic setup you are correct

Oh crap! Now I have to come up with another one.

This series focuses on four unlikely roommates and their misadventures. For
example, in the first week, one is shot, another is burnt to ashes, a third is
infected and the last exposes herself in public.

Yeah that's right. Your criticism is noted, kymaera.

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

The first 3 sound like Kenny on South Park. Sadly no anime guess however.

Red Garden! (No, just kidding...)

Actually I remember you writing this description in one of your anime seasons postings. Here it is!

Renkin San Kyu Magical? Pokaan (?12 episode TV series) - Airing April 5th, 2006 1:30AM:
http://www.magipoka.com/top.html
http://www.animenfo.com/animetitle,3592 ... _kyu_.html
Genre: Comedy, Ecchi, Magic
The four princesses, Uma, the witch, Pachira, the vampire, Liru, the werewolf, and Aiko, the android, came to the human world from the magical land by some reason. One week has passed since they began to live in a hut looks like a bird’s nest on a big tree. Because they were not accustomed to the human life, their life was in a mess; Liru was about to be shot a shiver bullet, Pachira turned into ashes, Aiko was infected by virus, and Uma exposed her chest in public.

Yep. You are correct.

Though, it is a bit scary that someone actually remembered one of my posts.
