The.
Hell.
When I found out Oscar's Oasis was indeed an anime on myanimelist.net, I HAD to make a review for this childhood kino. It genuinely is quite surprising to hear that this is part Korean. I thought it was fully French, what a diverse world we live in.
So I watched most of the series back in the day, but I have vivid memories of some events that took place, with it usually being the same thing over and over, I don't think I am missing out on a lot of stuff to talk about because ultimately, Oscar's Oasis is really just fun and games.
It's an episodic series, filled with funny characters, funny moments, funny situations, and generally everything needed to make for a good kids anime. 3D animation is the entire thing, but it has a good nostalgia call to it, even without, it's fine regardless, fits the theme well and there is seriously nothing jarring about it. The same goes for the sound here, pretty memorable soundtracks, some OST stick to me even today. Lack of actual dialogue but that just means this can be universally enjoyed.
I remember talking rubbish about some of the logic here back when I was like 9 or 10 or something like that. Despite its lack of consistency (Oscar's tongue CAN go 50 meters and sprint 70 mph if he wanted to smh), I thought it was fun on the whole, even if sometimes very dumb. I'd watch this with the mindset as a child would, look for the dumb funny nonsense, and don't be a pseudointellectual like I was looking for the chef-d'œuvre in the form of artistic representation of Newton's Gravitation Law of Motion.
10/10 for being a great kids anime. It's no Oggy and the Cockroaches tho 🤷🤷.
