4.0 out of 5 stars My Melody is the cutest!, June 22, 2005

By 

Sanrio Fan - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hello Kitty Tells Fairy Tales (DVD)

The cartoons are from the 1980's Hello Kitty tv series "Hello Kitty's Furry Tale Theater," which are variations on popular fairy tales/movies. They feature Hello Kitty, My Melody, Tuxedo Sam, Chip, Catnip & Grinder, who are actors in the theatre. Each DVD contains 5 fairy tales, and each fairy tale is about 10 minutes long and has its own unique take on the familiar stories. They are also changed to be less violent, nicer and more suited for children (water balloon fights instead of guns).

The quality of the DVD's are more like TV broadcast quality and this is the reason I've given it 4 stars instead of 5. I think they could've enhanced the quality before putting it onto DVD. It is also not recorded in stereo sound. I already owned the 2 Furry Tale Theater VHS's (Kitty and the Beast, The Wizard of Paws), so I already knew what to expect.

I'm an adult Sanrio collector and I loved seeing these episodes, and I would feel good about letting my children see these too.

The following is the list of the episodes in this DVD:
"Hello Kitty Tells Fairy Tales" has Robin Penguin, Hello Mother Goose, The Ugly Quackling, Pinocchio Penguin, and Little Red Bunny Hood.

My favorite is Little Red Bunny Hood... I think My Melody is very cute in it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Cute but not in Japanese as advertised, April 28, 2009

I'm sure all the fairy tales will be cute. The biggest disappointment was that while the audio languages listed are Japanese and English, the audio is English, French & Spanish. My daughter just began Japanese school and I was looking to support her learning.
