more about childhood rather than aimed at children

Growth Factor is also by Ryosuke Oshiro and we like it

this has death, slavery and cruelty but also talking animals ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Shigeru

Tamura

= magic

the very first slice of life?

when I was little, I also thought my grandparents were magical

what a neat way to learn kana & kanji

I think this is it, I found it, the most beautiful anime. those chubby character designs and how satisfyingly they move, the dam that was holding all my tears inside just burst

the art mimics ancient Chinese cave paintings

seeing the deer made me recall the Russian cartoon The Brave Little Deer, which I found terrifying as a child

whereas I find the squeaky-toy moaning to be creepy in human characters, these sounds are spot-on for the baby pegasus. this anime is a fluffy pastel blanket wrapping you

shadow animation

oh my stars, they incorporated racism into an anime about insects 

there's not enough Mameshiba in this world

for early mornings, before chain-drinking coffee, when I can only tolerate soft colours, gently floating to nudge me awake

water animation in 2018 looks toit

the world and its dog love this anime

the animation still holds up

war propaganda, gotta get them young

ah, the costume designs *chef's kiss*

I loved this as a child; nostalgia overflows

operatic tantrum throwing

the art is beautiful! I also like how Susanoo is told he IS a good boy even when he's scolded for being inconsiderate

the simple narration is great practice if you're learning Mandarin

I wish someone would sub all of it

it's dubbed in French
