As Told By Ginger - Little Seal Girl

[@Layla109]

In this video Macie was epitome of 'Accepting/loving yourself' and standing up for what she loved and believe despite her BFFS disapproval. People may call it social suicide but you can't deny that what Macie did took huge balls and for that alone she's truly one of the strongest if not strongest character on this show. I love this show. ^^

Man I didn't like this show as a kid ( to young to understand). Watching it now, I wish they made more shows like this today. Do your thing maci!

[@CrocusSeal]

Rewatching this show after 23 years I find that Macie is my favorite character

[@windchimes098]

they don't make kid shows like this anymore...this was my FAVORITE show!

[@منيرالنمر-ث3م]

Oh man if u see what they're shows now lol

[@glynreaper088]

wow seriously what a great scene from an under-rated nicktoon that was aimed more for the teenage audience Ginger and Dodie just seemingly want to act and grow older fast just for the supposed cool parties and popularity , while there best friend Macy just wants to enjoy being a child and hold on to the memories of there ever decreasing childhood so she peforms something the whole gang used to sing together

[@rainbowtoesocks]

***** This video combined with your comment brought me to tears. Bloody cartoon nostalgia!!

[@Greekone0one]

You just killed me on the inside lol

[@TaylorandSchwartzTalkSports]

[@rabbit0664]

joel schwartz For all you know OP could have dyslexia. Grow up and learn some manners.

[@vientttt]

I never understood the whole show or the situations mainly bc I was very young when I "watched" this show, yet I remember this chapter more than anything from the entire series. I actually CRIED when she performed, I do remember her friends telling her not to do it yet she went for it, and when the music stops and she starts singing all by herself....man it hit me real hard.

YASSSS MACIE, SLAY US ALL MOMMA HUNTIE UR AN INDEPENDENT SEAL WHO DONT NEED NO MAN.

[@FreeCpRareAccounts1]

hey stop that

[@latee1198]

This moment is wonderful. Macie fights the peer pressure to disdain their childhood tradition in a race to grow up and prove themselves cool or “mature”. But she also learns by the end of it that the crowd reaction shouldn’t determine what is right for the group to perform. Because of their strong friendship, their tradition lives by bombing together or succeeding together-not broken and apart. ❤ powerful moral lessons for tweens that sadly do not exist in cartoons today.

[@MeranoMeri]

This episode had such an impact on my childhood memories!

[@kelseydonaldson4647]

This never got old she did great singing that song

[@reptaronice96]

I used to have this on a CD when I was six! I sang this song all the time :)

[@aishayosho16]

What is the name of the sooong please tell me if u know it :(

[@reptaronice96]

***** The name of the song is simply "Little Seal Girl Theme Song". It was on the 2001 CD The Newest Nicktoons.

[@danielafernandez6169]

Seals can't even cry *-* this is inspiring

[@markbutler6643]

Miss this show

[@enenon104]

lmao i remember when i was younger i cried watching this smh lol idk why

[@notreally0812]

me too, lol. I think it's because it taught me a lot about self-acceptance.

[@Bethebug123]

I know, it made me sad too, I think because it seems like Ginger and Dodie kinda went against her in this episode, like they were embarrassed or something (maybe I need to watch it again)

[@SageAsuka]

I remembered this episode when talking to my mom earlier today about pokemon. In Elementary, it's the greatest thing ever. In middle school and high school, if you like pokemon you're some sort of 'baby' or 'outcast'. Hit college, and suddenly it's cool again. Little Seal Girl reminded me of that trend. Kudos to Macie for not changing herself and going through with that.

[@xaoife07x]

This is one of the most beautiful moments of Nick tv ever. Does anyone know if the song at the start has a full length?

[@samrobacker346]

I dont think so. but it comes back a few times

[@freetyree1]

Iconic.

[@LadyBloodyWrists]

I just noticed how autotuned is this, yet that doesn't take awwy the feelings of this. Pretty much one of the most emotionally defining moments of my childhood

[@priscillaking3760]

I sing this little song all the time. Loved it when I first saw this episode many years ago and had to find it to watch it again. It's just so sweet

[@Chu4eon]

I just realized that Macie's VA would be PERFECT to voice Alphys.

[@Myrope]

I can totally see that!! Now that's how I'll imagine her voice, lol! (Before, I kinda pictured her sounding like Peridot from Steven Universe)

[@Nionivek]

Because it was the weak and meager character actually winning everyone over through her force of personality and bravery. This is the perfect ugly duckling ending. She didn't change, she just shown that she was wonderful to everyone else.

[@CrocusSeal]

I know your comment is a decade old but damn. This is very profound.

[@merianr1176]

I loved that ep as a kid!!! Most dramatic scene of my childhood!:D

[@Exxylux]

We all watched the original but come to this one to comment. Lmaoooo. This song always stayed with me. I’m 30 now lol

This song popped into my head earlier this week, now I'm setting out to watch every ATBG episode. Haven't even watched this show in years -_-

[@singingsarah94]

"i'm a little seal girl living in the real world" was my senior quote... awww yeah

[@AlisonLiney]

Macie is so inspirational.

[@TotallyLisaBackup]

I remember this episode. Such a great show! :)

[@Animebrity.]

Sometimes I want to know what kind of friends are Ginger and Dodie. I always find Macie and Courtney are the two of the sweetest characters on the show.

[@iu8418]

It's been 5 years but i hope u doing well In my opinion Courtney is good girl but she's affected by Miranda behaviour towards ginger.. Macie is still in the beginning of being a teen still living her age as child unlike ginger and dodi who want to grow fast

[@WonderlandAlicexo]

omg how brave was Macie to do it all alone

[@Macalicious]

Suddenly this morning, I had this melody in my head. When I came home, I directly searched this up >< Thanks so much for the upload!!

[@TotallyLisaCartoons]

I remember this show. It was SO the teen drama themed show worth watching, along with Rugrats All Grown Up!. Good times. :) xxxx

[@yorgysmorgy98]

This song has been stuck in my head all day :) Awww the memories

[@WeeScottishLass]

Back when cartoons taught morals and not how to be rude to adults, gosh whats become of cartoons now adays? I cringe at the stuff my little brother and sister watch

[@WeeScottishLass]

Probably not rude enough so got taken off air *le evil glares*

[@kelseykelsey2559]

but the simpsons came before this, and it can be described exactly as "teaching kids how to be rude to adults" everyone has this idea that everything back then was great (and it always coincides with the time that they were kids, really ask anyone and everyone will tell you that everything was better when they were young.) and everything now is shit. when it's really just your point of view and also an inability to cope with change.

[@raerod0718]

I really don't know if it's cause I took sleeping pills and haven't slept yet. But I laughed throughout this whole video

[@Catbutttshirt]

No, no.....it's not the pills man. Ambien WALRUS, not seal girl. Haha

[@supr3m3panda]

Popplio Defense Squad, roll out!

[@Nightman221k]

That was pretty epic for Macie. XD I loved that episode.

[@IceSpoon]

In the earliest 2000s, nerd culture wasn't big. It was ridiculed if you liked Pokémon, or Batman, or "children" things, and a lot of the 2000s earliest aesthetic was pretty edgy and leaving the naivety of the 90s behind, of your childhood. Then Macie came in and she spoke for all of us. That you can grow up, but that won't mean killing your inner kid.

[@Estella1507]

This song always cheers me up

[@julianG1212]

Dude, at around 25 seconds, that dude crying to Macie's dancing had me cracking up.

[@TheLastHylianTitan]

[@cocoabeetless]

Most folks think that I'm not real 'Cause I'm half girl and I'm half seal I'm a little seal girl livin' in the real world And it's so hard to get by 'Cause seals can't even cry But in this endless, boundless sea Is there no one who looks like me I know I must stay chipper, One day I'll find a friend to hold my flipper 'Cause I'm a little seal girl livin' in the real world And it's so hard to get by 'Cause seals can't even cry Sry I am late😬 9 years to be exact
