Notes English name: Adventures of Peter Pan
Creator(s): James Matthew Barrie (Peter and Wendy)
A title in Fuji TV & Nippon Animation's World Masterpiece Theater (meisaku)TV anime series of adaptations of classic children's books.
A free adaptation of J.M. Barrie's classic childrens' novel.
Classification WMT
Synopsis Wendy and her brothers are taken to NeverNever Land by Peter, where they set up house with the Lost Boys and have a series of battles with Hook and his pirates. The final episodes have a struggle against an evil witch, who isn't in the book.
Review Wendy & Pirates | Wendy, John & Michael | Peter, John & Michael | Wendy & Lost Boy
In contrast to the other WMT anime, this is a very free adaptation of J.M.Barrie's classic. However it's colourful and a lot of fun, with comically nasty pirates and a playful Peter and adventurous Lost Boys. As one would expect of a Japanese adaptation, the girls, ie Wendy, Tiger Lily, and Luna (the latter not in the book) are all strong, sensible characters, with Wendy cast firmly in the role of Little Mother.
