In particular, Shadar's attitude towards facing difficulties and his bond with his friends deeply moved viewers. Also, as a different adventure unfolds in each episode, fresh surprises and excitement await every time. One of the attractions of this work is the skillful storytelling of the scriptwriter Tsuji Masaki. Although it is an anime for children, Tsuji Masaki has succeeded in drawing viewers in with his deep story. Additionally, the background music by Masuda Toyotomi and Terayama Shuji, who were in charge of the music, is also an important element in enhancing the atmosphere of the adventure.
