Belfy and Lillibit

もりのようきなこびとたち べるふぃーとりるびっと

Aired: 1980

A television anime co-produced by Tatsunoko Production and Tokyo 12 Channel (now TV Tokyo) at the height of Tatsunoko's golden era. An original property, the series unfolds in a richly drawn forest world where the diminutive girl Belfy and her younger companion Lillibit live alongside the forest's birds, squirrels and other woodland creatures. Through encounters with mischievous fairies, woodland spirits, and the gentle rhythms of the changing seasons, the show offers a warm, pastoral celebration of friendship and coexistence with nature. Delicate Tatsunoko character design, lyrical background art and a soothing musical score combine to give the series its enduring appeal as a small but lovingly crafted family fantasy.
