My Old Time Favorite Anime

Princess Sarah (小公女セーラ Purinsesu Sēra) was a 1985 Japanese anime series produced by Nippon Animation, based on Frances Hodgson Burnett‘s novel, A Little Princess. Spanning 46 episodes, it originally premiered in 1985 across Japan on Fuji Television as the 11th series of Nippon Animation’s famous World Masterpiece Theater staple.

It was also later aired across Japan by the anime television network, Animax, who also later broadcast the series across its respective networks worldwide, including its English language networks in Southeast Asia and South Asia, dubbing and translating the series into English under the title Princess Sarah. Animax’s adaptation was the series’ only English translation, and the series has yet to be commercially released in the United States. The series has also been selected as one of the best 100 Japanese anime series of all time by viewers of TV Asahi.

It was also aired in numerous countries worldwide and translated into several languages, including French, Italian, German, Arabic and Spanish. In the Philippines, it was aired by ABS-CBN in the early 1990′s (with some rebroadcasts at the beginning of the 21st century) , and was a runaway success, even spawning a live action movie and a teleserye. In the Pan-Arab region, it became the most successful anime based on a novel adaptation in the 90s.

Story:

A Little Princess tells the story of Sarah Crewe, a young daughter of a wealthy English family in India, who starts attending an all-girl’s seminary selection boarding school in London, where she excels in her studies and is loved deeply by many of her friends and classmates. However, tragedy soon strikes when Sarah’s father passes away and her family goes bankrupt, leaving her to be a poor orphan. The school’s headmistress, Miss Minchin, takes advantage of this situation and makes her a maid in the school, trying hard to make her life as miserable as possible. However, Sarah, with the help of her friends, perseveres and tries to endure all her hardships until redemption comes at last.
