New Moomin (新ムーミン Shin Mūmin?) is the second anime TV series adaptation and a remake to the 1969-70 Moomin series loosely based on the books by the Finnish illustrator and writer Tove Jansson. It was produced in 1972 by Mushi Production and broadcast on Fuji TV.

Production

The series was produced as a remake after the 1969-70 series was cancelled by Jansson's claim as it was radically different from how she wanted the series to be. It was never broadcast outside of Japan.

Unlike its predecessor, the series was based more closely on the books.
