Moominvalley

I love this, as a fan of the moomins, I find this version such a lovely addition. I grew up with the anime and I find this version so pleasant. The visuals are stunning, the feeling you get from this tv show is the same you get when reading the original comics. I love the voice cast, I have been so used to the voice cast of the anime, but I think this might be the best cast version!

If I'm ever feeling down or sad or had a bad day, this programme always makes me happy and wholesome. Beautiful stories and amazing take on the original! Love it so much!

To be honest, I kinda like this. The story is interesting in my opinion and Little My gets much more screen time than in the Tanoshî Mûmin ikka. Still there's something that's irritating. Like the good moomin adaptations from Japan are anime, this one is 3D-animated. Anime gives the series much more life, because the original moomin were illustrations. Honestly anime makes it much more better, but this is plot wisely good. The good idea would have been this: same plot and anime. They sadly didn't do this and... I don't hate it or love it.

Yes the originals are flawless and I know other reviewers are questioning the point of this remake, but it's a really sweet and cute adaption in my opinion (and I'm old enough to remember the original stories!) with a good voice cast that will bring these enjoyable tales to a new audience. The Moomins are classics and surely new eyes and ears to their antics can't be a bad thing.

I grew up with the 1990 version and i rewatched it recently for old time's sake. It still hit me with the feels and I will love it till the day I die. This one didn't really do that for me.. I mean it's pretty to look at but why turn Moomin and Snorkmaiden into angsty teenagers, Snufkin to an irritable and arrogant sociopath and Little My seemed overly pushy.. The only one who behaved somewhat consistantly was Sniff. The humor is too dry and simple. I don't really know what they were trying to accomplish with this production. Seems cheap to me.
