Alps no Shoujou Heidi is one of those stories that anyone can enjoy for its simplicity in depth and characters. An orphan girl who suddenly comes to live with her hermit grandfather at the swiss alps while she develops her understandings with fun little adventures. The show is quite faithful to the original source having some filler episodes that don't bother very much with the experience. While being peaceful and entertaining I could not hold a grip for much long that some episodes and everytime I returned to watch the show and the fact that it has more than 50 episodes made me retreat for a while, it is much easier and faster to read the book than to watch the series. Even said that I fully appreciate the animation and sound made by now today legends, the characters are very expressive and the music is so soothing and happy.

I find myself in a dilemma with the younger me because I liked it much more when I was a child. The series is not mediocre but neither is very good. If you have a child, you can show him/her this and sure he/she will enjoy it
