i just wanted to check out the first episode of 90s daddy long legs for a bit but suddenly i'm on episode 30 already because this show is so well done and there are so many interesting things going on! a bitch is charmed!
i wonder if the show starts around the late 1920s? only 2 years have passed but most girls are switching their low-waist dresses for a more natural waistline, and the new volume around judy's shoulders seems more like 1930s fashion
they truly did commit to the Fashionable Modern Girl from the 20s with The Rich Girl character. if this was 70s shojo she would've been the ojou-sama with huge ass curls/ringlets but here is all about the lack of volume
the daddy long legs novel was published in the early 1910s but the fashion of the young women in the anime says 1920s (with some 90s hairdos? lol)
just realized that tubi tv doesn't actually have the 90s anime series version of daddy long legs, it's actually the rare 70s adaptation with the wrong cover
made a list of officially streaming retro shojo https://t.co/CsjYEzGi2C
feel free to tell me if i'm missing anything! (srly, this list is... way too short)
the red-orange-yellow version sort of has a "2000s adventure anime" vibe but I'm honestly surprised by how much takada was able to modernize yuu's design, which is so especially 80s, making it feel new but keeping it easily recognizable
