This anime is based on the book of the French author Hector Malot, Sans Familie, published in the year of 1878. Recelty I got obsessed with this kind of adaptions in anime, I don't have rejects. This story is sad, but at the same time you can learn something in every episode. Remi is a 8 year old boy that lives with her mother in the small town of Chavannon. He is happy and helps his mother with the cow and learning how to do some other things. But this happiness is interrupted when his father got injured due an accident in the company heworks in Paris. The father needs money because he is demanding the company, but he lost. Because of this Remi will discover a mountain of lies and his father will... do something Remi and his mother won't like.

What I like about this anime is the animation. Everything moves! The scenario is always moving. The clouds move, the trees move, everything while the characters walk. Just search for the opening and you will discovered what I am saying.

The character development is really good. Everyone is important in the story and we can learn something with them. Remi can learn about how to be strong, no matter the circumstances thanks to the journey he began with the decision of the father.

This anime is a worth to watch, for some episodes the story can be a little slow, but personally everything that happens is interesting. There are any filler episodes. In some we can watch character development, their dreams, their weaknesses, and if other episodes we can watch the story.
