American fans of this never before released-on-video TOEI animated classic have been waiting more than THIRTY years to see this early example Hayao Miyazaki’s work, even longer if they missed its occasional showings on TV, which apparently ended a generation ago. What’s more, for those of us who remember Fred Ladd’s well-done English dubbing that was shown on American TV so long ago, Discotek Media has wisely included it as the second audio track. The English audio is a little the worse for wear, and the English credits are unfortunately missing, but unless and until someone wants to pony up the money for a modern re-dubbing, it is better to include it than not because purists can always choose the Japanese audio track with English subtitles.

Miyazaki is listed both as a key animator and the writer responsible for this extremely loose adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island, but as usual with Miyazaki his contributions undoubtedly exceeded even his listed credits. For example it seems certain that he had a big hand in character design. Then there is the reappearance of so much of Animal Treasure Island in Miyazaki’s later work. The spunky, blue-clad heroine is almost a Miyazaki trademark, and Castle in the Sky looks like Miyazaki’s later attempt to do this kind of story better. Lupin the III: The Castle of Cagliostro also owes a lot to Animal Treasure Island. Now there is no question that the animation will seem a little primitive and dated compared to Studio Ghibli’s work, but it holds up rather nicely for its age.
I hesitate to say too much about the plot because no matter how many versions of Treasure Island you’ve seen, you’ve never seen anything like this. It has about as much connection to RLS’s Treasure Island as Miyazaki’s Castle in the Sky does to Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels, and given how heavily that highway has been traveled, that’s a blessing IMHO. Let’s just say that this version set in a mostly talking animal world includes one motorized, fore-and-aft rigged, one-gun, sea-going barrel; one tagalong baby brother; one pirate’s granddaughter; lots and lots of semi-serious swordfights; a whole bunch of things that don’t really belong in tempura; one pirates’ collective; a couple of rousing choruses; the Iron Boar; one soft-hearted walrus; one treacherous fox; and possibly the meanest Silver ever.

Note: Miyazaki fans will find it interesting to compare and contrast “Animal Treasure Island” with the earlier The Wonderful World of Puss ‘N Boots (1969), another long lost (until recently) TOEI classic that Miyazaki worked on and Fred Ladd dubbed into English.
This movie is a must for any anime fan. It highlights miyazaki’s early work before he became famous for his movies(Spirited Away, Princes mononoke, Howl’s Moving Castle). The DVD quality is outstanding for a movie that has not been on TV for over 20 years!!!
