Information

Title (English) Treasure Island

Title (Japanese) Takarajima

Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes (Ger. = Die Schatzinsel)

Classification -

Synopsis Boy joins expedition to treasure island with local squire - too late they discover their crew, including the one-legged cook, are pirates.

Review Yes it is indeed another adaptation of the famous RL Stevenson novel, with fine painted artwork. Though more suitable for kids, it's quite well done and seems to stick fairly faithfully to the original book; as much as you could expect anyway. The characterisation is good, with the good guys sometimes appearing a bit wet, and Silver not being wholly villainous. In fact he makes a fascinating anti-hero. Infinitely better than American cartoons.
