Japanese Lanterns Cartoon 1935

[@Kawayoporu]

Oh my gosh, another Japan cartoon which that one looks like from Silly Symphonies with that nice humming music it resembled, years ago I found Betty Boop went to Japan, but not in colour is also in 1935 and then few years later I found another one that's 20 years later release of Yokohama Yankee from 1955 and then this, already in colour 20 years earlier to a Betty Boop one same year, I'm happy to see Japanese kids in a cartoon other then those real life Japanese kids in a non-coloured Kool-Aid 60s commercial, well, little girls, but I hope there's more, are there?! I'd like to see kimonos look exactly the same way as usually in the anime drawn, a cartoon with actual squared long kimono sleeves called a sode and then to a tamato which is more missing rather those bell sleeves, I won't able to find info about the reasoning of bell sleeves instead of the tamato sleeves and their obis have no ohashi under an obi, but sometimes kimonos has no ohashi and also sometimes no obiage and a obijime too.

Considering that this came out of the 30’s, I was expecting it to be much worse, but, overall, this was actually pretty sweet and harmless, as well as just gorgeously animated.

6:55 - 6:58 - That scene was animated by a Peanuts animator by the name of Bill Littlejohn. It was the third animated sequence that Bill had animated when he was 21.

Wow, that's really amazing. You really know you're stuff.

Don't you mean Bill Melendez

[@mforrest9737]

@@jennifermcbryde8887 Not exactly. Bill Melendez wasn't in the animation industry yet In fact, he's 2 years younger than Littlejohn. Look him up.

That cartoon was delightful! The little girls, their parents and their stork friend were having fun making the lanterns. The cartoon was restored so well that it fairly glowed with color. I remember seeing Van Buren Studio cartoons only in black and white on our RCA TV back in the late 1950's-early 1960's. I remember Molly Moo Cow protecting her butterfly friends from a butterfly collector. But my favorite cartoons were the Parrotville series, especially Parrotville Old Folks and Parrotville Post Office. I have beat up looking copies on DVD's. I hope they will be restored, too.

The BGM in this short reminds me of the soundtracks of the Legend of the Mystical Ninja/Ganbare Goemon games...
