This is a 60-minute English-dubbed Japanese animated TV special based on Louisa May Alcott's novel, “Little Women.“ It spawned a 26-episode animated series in 1981, the first three episodes of which have already been uploaded to this channel. The incidents from those episodes, “Christmas Eve,“ “Angels in Boots,“ and “Jo's Boyfriend,“ are featured in this special, which also goes into Jo and Lawrie's friendship and the growing relationship between Meg and Mr. Brooks. There's a scene where Beth plays Mr. Lawrence's piano like a true virtuoso. Another scene involves the rescue of a boy who turns out to be a runaway slave. Major crises occur late in the hour, when the girls' mother has to go to Washington D.C. to tend their father who's been wounded in the Civil War. Soon after, Beth gets seriously ill... According to some sources, the original Japanese version was 68 minutes. The director of this special is Yugo Serikawa, a pioneering anime director who made some of Japan's earliest animated features.
