Hello guys and gays! I'm in a super happy mood right now because we know what 4 of the season 2 episodes will be based on!!!! Tiny lesbians Thingumy and Bob have been confirmed for season 2 episode 8 babyyyy!!!!!!
But I digress. Here's a little video of some clips and images (all of which I've posted on tumblr before so if you're from there you'll recognise them lol) of various cast and crew members discussing Moomintroll and Snufkin's relationship in the series because I'm a repressed bisexual who craves representation hahaa anyway
it basically looks like moomintroll has this inner conflict of wanting to stay at home with his family yet also wanting to go out on his own and explore the world (like pappa did in HIS youth); I personally feel like Snorkmaiden represents the former (talking about their future children, their relationship basically being very heteronormative and like a childish version of a stereotypical marriage) whilst Snufkin represents the latter with his free and wandering spirit, so I hope the series will end with Moomintroll choosing to travel away from home and thereby choosing Snufkin. guess we'll see. I mean the theme song (and basically every other song on the soundtrack) is about them two which feels /very/ significant.
sorry I sound so scatterbrained btw lol
EDIT: Hey! It's November now. I know people don't tend to read descriptions but I would just like to say that I don't think snufmin will actually become a romantic relationship in the series, at least not explicitly. I think it's kinda shitty that it has romantic subtext but I suppose they have the "excuse" that that's the same as the original books; though of course they were published at a time when LGBT+ representation, particularly in children's books, was completely impossible, so it's really not an excuse at all. I could talk about this all day and there's so many things to consider but I'll leave it there for now.
