I love Miss Langtree and her songs especially her alphabet one
It is a fun show that takes you in a trip of the unknown and randomness the show makes you feel the action and the songs are outstanding The personages are cute and neither one of them is forgetable or boring or annoying this series excels in the storytelling and the finale is just awesome the animation is very well done without mistakes
Overall it is a ten out of ten and i recommend you to watch it and it is easy to watch with just 10 episodes
[8.0/10] Another really fun outing. I really liked what I might term the B-story here, with Wirt responding to Beatrice saying that he’s a pushover who does whatever anyone tells him by taking that philosophy to an absurd extreme, following a random teacher’s instructions no matter how silly or dangerous they may be. Him going along with class punishments and meal time and bed time purely out of spite for Beatrice’s backhanded compliment for him was a lot of fun. I especially enjoyed the payoff, where Beatrice admitted that he wasn’t a pushover...because he could also be a stubborn little jerk. It’s a fun, almost sitcom subversion place to take it. (Particularly when it seems like Beatrice and Wirt are going to have a heart-to-heart moment and instead Beatrice just says, “Wirt, tie your shoe.”)
(Crazy theory:Beatrice will get turned into a human by this magician they’re all going to go see, and sooner or later she and Wirt will fall in love.)
But I love Greg’s “take action and try to make the world better” approach to the situation just as much. There’s a certain youthful zeal and weirdness to Greg that’s a ton of fun. Him horsing around with the animals who are otherwise playing hooky, trying to play games like “two old cats” and singing an ode to potatoes and molasses is just a lot of fun. Greg’s goofy innocence is infectious here, and his silliness is great.
I also like the weirdness of the setup. The very fact that some young teacher was tasked with her father to teach woodland creatures how to spell and do math as part of some money making scheme is utterly bizarre. The teacher singing wistful songs about her two-timing lover who, amid rampant giant gorilla attacks, is just as strange (though I actually like the “indie ukulele tune” vibe of the song). It’s got some of that trademark Adventure Time off the wall creativity which I like.
I also like the solution to all of this! Greg stealing the instruments from the teacher’s father (who wants to sell them to recoup some of his investment) in order to have a benefit concert for the school is actually really clever. Plus, the setup and payoff with Wirt’s untied shoelace leading to him revealing that the attacking gorilla is just, in fact, the teacher’s lost love is so out of left field and fun.
Overall, I really enjoyed this one. It had a level of irreverences and just plain peculiarness to the setups and payoffs that really worked for me, with some subtly clockwork plotting. Good work all around!
