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!

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.

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.

This version really depicted the Moomin Books and cartoon series very well with respect on Tove Jansson. Characters is well crafted, like it jumps out from the books. This made it for the kids and they are really enjoy it. And also adult like me.

Having seen the first half of the first season, I am really happy about this. I feel the totality of what I've seen is good - animation, storytelling, visuals, dialogue. It respects the work of Tove Jansson and hits the nostalgic buttons by not being too different from the japanese series, but still it is not a copy but its own version of the stories. I feel this is great for kids, and most of the episodes are great to watch as an adult too. This will never be the same as the original series, but I think expecting that wouldn't be reasonable.
