6:33 that would translate more to "Moomintroll is allowed to like Snufkin more than he likes Snorkmaiden" but STILL IT'S,,,, I ,,, I MIGHT BE CRYING?????
amberlovesanimation You got it sort of right but like Google-translate kind of right. The Swedish language is weird but I can try to explain, “Får” means in this scenario to be allowed. FÅR jag gå på toa? - Am I allowed to go to the bathroom? Jag FÅR gå på toa. - I am allowed to go to the bathroom. But sometimes it can be used forcedly, Like “will have to.” Om ingen annan gör det, FÅR jag - If no one else wants to do it, I will have to. Jag vill inte, så du FÅR göra det - I don’t want to, so you will have to do it. So the right translation would have, as OP said, be; “Moomintroll is ALLOWED to like...” But you accidentally took it as the other option. (: It’s all about the way one says it more than what one actually says in Swedish so don’t worry about it.
@@decentgrocerybag4003 oh I didn't translate it, I used google translate! I explained so at around 4:23 though it's in small text so I'm not surprised people missed it lol. I don't know anything about Finnish or Swedish :'D
amberlovesanimation Yeah that’s what I meant! Google translate is a good translating tool but it’s not very good at understanding context and tone so that’s the only part you/it got it wrong. I’m Swedish so that’s why I picked up on it! :D
Also, he's saying that "and sometimes he will like Snorkmaiden more"! It's a small difference, but "tyckar om" in this context means "like", not "like about". Sorry to bother you! I loved the video and I hope you have a great day.
English interviews: uhh idk maybe it’s gay Finnish interviews (literally): moomin valley has a lot of queer elements and that’s kinda why we love it also Moomintroll is bisexual and loves Snufkin in the same way he loves Snorkmaiden and that’s amazing and beautiful.
I got into Moomin recently because I was intrigued by Snufkin and Moomin’s relationship. I also started reading the novels and I can say for sure these two have the cutest moments. They think about each other, write letters ... it’s so wholesome!
I honestly feel like it would be a good idea if they did gradually have Moomintroll realize his feelings towards Snufkin. It's realistic and a breath of fresh air.
* me, only watching the English interviews * I hope we're not obessing too much into this idea, I'm afraid of queerbaiting :( *sees Finish interviews * O-Oh...
I feel like in the 70's version of the show snufmin was practicaly Canon especially at the end when snufkin legit said him and Moomin parting ways was a break up like my heart the boy cried I don't think I have ever even seen snufkin cry before that like shiiiit man that was gay. also I feel like if I ever saw the groke in real life I would probably shit my pants
Groke is cute I love her. she's just lonely. I must admit though, I used to watch the 90s version when I was little and she scared the shit out of me. I thought she lived in the basement shfjfkg
There is many times snufkin cries in the 70's version, but he only cries when it comes to moomin. Like in the blood moon episode he cries when moomin risks becoming a vampire just so that snufkin won't be banished. And that is soo sweet, when they are walking home snufkin cries, and I cry.
Am i the only one who’s not very ready for this. I rlly want it to happen, but im not mentally prepared to see something that will make me scream and cry at the same time
snufmin as one of those rare ships of mine where romantic or platonic is suppeerrr in a gray area. so instead of using those words, ill just call em soulmates
I think that this is so wonderful because it clearly goes beyond a "fandom" level of desire for that kind of a storyline (not that there's anything wrong with that). Tove Jansson was a bisexual woman who spent the majority of her later life in a committed relationship with another woman, and that part of her had to have influenced her writing. Thingumy and Bob, who were named Tofslan and Vifslan in Swedish (stand-ins for Tove and her then-girlfriend Vivica), were pursued by the Groke, who's metaphorical significance was referenced in the video, and Tove's life partner, Tuulikki Pietilä, was the direct influence for Too-Ticky. I grew up reading the Moomin series, and going through it again when I was a bit older, it stands out to me how much the themes center around love, acceptance and not just acknowledging differences, but welcoming and celebrating them. It is so heartwarming to see that the creative team for this show are exploring this part of Tove and the Moomin series, and that we live in a time where this beloved franchise can have certain parts of it finally brought to light! Edit: I'm sorry, I realize this comment is an absolute TOME, I just have a lot of feelings about Moomins XD
As a Finn, it brings me joy for people enjoying Moomins and new fans getting into it. Moomins are my childhood as it has been for many Finnish and Swedish people
@@siiildie No, if it was pronounced "tåve" then it would be spelled "tåve". Swedish is a phonetic language. "Tå" is pronounced like "to-ah" and "To" is pronounced as "Tu". Therefore, "Tove" is said as "Tu-ve"
With all this tension they are building up I really really really hope they'll display something romantic that cannot be misinterpreted between Snufkin and Moomin!
I think Snuf and Snorkmaden would just sit down one day and both decide to protect and love Moomin together cuz he owns both of thier hearts. Plus them two gossiping, making flower crowns and being protective is my shit man lol
It sounds like tho Snufmin is prob cannon, its supposed to end up as a tragedy. But these are new times were in, its becoming more acceptable to be who you are freely. They've put a spin on some things that push moominvalley apart from the rest of the adaptations so maybe this wont be a tragedy. Tbh what im most looking forward to is seeing Moomin find his place, Snufkin coming to terms with his want for both family and freedom, Snorkmaiden finding something to truly love that isnt all about someone else, and Little My showing her insecurities more often (I guess for sniff it'd be realizing family is much more important than any jewel in the world). I'd also like to see Moominppapa admit his mistakes more often, instead of covering them up with tall tales. Moominmamma needs more screen time individually in general cuz bless that women shes the best of em.
This is such a nice show BUT I just dont want this to turn out like all the other times with shows and fandoms crashing a burning because of large ships being or not being cannon. I dont entirely ship it, but hek they have adorable chemistry.
I really don’t think that’ll happen. Moomins is a huge franchise that has been around for years, it’s not gonna crash & burn solely based on whether this particular series makes their relationship explicitly romantic or not
I don't think you will have to worry about that, honestly this fandom is so wholesome and i feel like people would be okay with what the show turns out to be.

I don't think that would happen in this fandom. I've seen most people respect and even join others ship, even though it would contradict another. This fandom seems to be filled with multishippers and respected rare pares witch I love. Although I have seen the tinyst bit of snorkmaden bashing it's not overly extreme and people go to defend her (which is great cuz she's bb) overall fluffy and accepting.
The Moomintroll fandom has been around since (At the latest) the 90's, LONG before this show came around. I think the only thing that can cause the fandom to crash and burn at this point is the franchise just ceasing to exist.
6:29 This translation is wrong because of google translate I’m sure. “You get to think about who you like” is wrong. It should be “You get to like whoever you want to like” To “tycka” means to have a certain opinion or to THINK ABOUT, yes. But to “Tycka OM” means to like. Example: “Vad tycker du?” - What do you think? ”Vad tycker du OM?” - What do you like? I hope this made it clear.
amberlovesanimation I love Moomin and I’m so glad it’s finally getting the attention it deserves, even beyond scandinavia! So keep making videos and don’t worry too much! I’m sure other people from Scandinavia feel just like I do and are quick to help explain to you and your viewers! :D
I grew up with the 90's show, and i shipped them so much, like before i even knew that not everyone shipped same genders :S Same with the Captain Sabertooth and his firstmate(Norwegian show) So imagine being so quiet about this and then finding TUMBLR just filled with my old ship ;-; fricking good.Thank u for setting this together
tbh it's not so easy in the UK, you have to have Sky or Now TV to watch it. I find it much easier to watch on a dodgy website online. But luckily for americans they are currently making deals to get it to air there as well
@@amberlovesanimation Ah of course but if you do have Sky (most people I know here do) you can easily watch the entire show on TV rather than finding it online. I hope they can get it aired in America though
You should watch it! If you don't live somewhere that it's easily accessible, you can find it on sites like kisscartoon or something. That's what I did, anyway. The 90s show is also available on TH-cam under Moomins Official, I believe... Great shows. I finished season 1 of the 2019 version recently.
I love how the entire fandom is like "pleaaase, make Snufmin happen? Pleeaaaase, we've been good! Lots of wholesome fanmade stuff if you don't look too deep into it! Please?" and the creators are just like ";)"
One day snork maiden and snufkin are going to have to have the chat about how they will share moomintroll.... This all makes me think about one of tove's comics where snufkin leaves a trail of flowers for moomintroll to find him in spring. And little my asks " you look silly. Do you like him So much?" "Er... I ... i suppose so... "Don't you know?" 'Yes. But one doesn't SAY it..." moomin replies, blushing, and holding a sad looking flower. One doesn't SAY it :( poor moomin keeping his feeling inside....
my mom watched moomin as a kid and I remember watching the older series on mexican channels and they always had such a complex relationship to my little brain.
I mean I've read a few books so far, saw the 90s anime and moominvalley and saw a few comics panels and like. For obvious reasons Tove couldn't back them have said clear that yeah they are gay but it's also obvious to anime that Snufkin and Moomin are in love. That said I'll too cry tears of joy when they'll be clear canon ♡
knowing it probably wont be cannon makes me so sad akkskas i love them so much 😔😔😔😔😔this show makes me so happy and sad at the same time whyy honestly still love snufkin and moomins relationship rather platonic or romantic, they honestly have such a cool dynamic and although id be happy if they made it cannon, im perfectly happy with a platonic relationship :)
To be fair the orginal author based moomin and snufkin on herself and her Fiance' so their relationship isnt really intended to be just platonic? Like, its almost definitely going to have romantic undertones
Ya know what, I don't even need Snufmin to been canon anyway. No matter what it is that they have, gay, strait, strong platonic relationship over periodically long distance, they will forever have one of the sweetest bonds of love, mutual respect and admiration ever shown in such a widespread cartoon. I think that's what Tove would have wanted most fundamentally of all.
This seems like such a soft show,,,, if anyone tries to make it crash and burn like Voltron I’m gonna vore them cause this show deserves to be supported, no matter what happens
To me the girls' bewildered faces (upon being asked about the possibility of Moomin and Snorkmaiden marrying) are the most telling thing here. Like, that's just a normal question. But to them that's FUNNY. And "too young to marry" argument is smart for shutting down the Snorkmaiden route, but then the whole crew talks a LOT about love as one of the main themes of the series - so it's not like no "romance" isn't planned. Just not romance with Snorkmaiden. It seems... there's really a high chance of them pulling this off. the GAY
the way he said that Tove was literally in a relationship that snufmin's relationship is supposed to represent sends. not to mention the context behind "suhde", it translates to relationship, but has more of a 'romantic relationship' meaning rather than 'platonic relationship' (you just say "ystävyys", ((friendship)) for that)
ooOOOoooh, how this fell. Season 2 was relatively weaker than season 1 in my personal opinion, but the later episodes were absolutely fantastic. Though, with the fact they said they'd touch upon Snufkin and Moomin's relationship more, Snufkin only appeared for a specific few episodes, on in which Moomin was absent. I'd say they're just playing at our heartstrings by this point, but the season was just as good as always, even though it was still only 13 eps.
I like it if the feelings aren’t confirmed and vague, there were always feelings implied for snufkin because Snufkin was representative of one Atos Wirtanen. I like ambiguity a lot, because the characters are concrete but they’re also the forces of Tove’s mind and representative of the people in her sphere so they don’t need to be set in stone or confirm it but just let it be what it already was to Tove.
shipping something does not equal expecting it to be canon. shipping something just means you personally think the characters would be good together. but I am interested to see if moominvalley does anything explicit with any of the subtext they've given, though my hopes are low.
I think a polygamous relationship would be lovely and is certainly on the table, but I do wish snufkin and snorkmaiden had more interaction :) also I feel kind of silly writing their names haha
I also read the official Moomin comics by Tove Jansson and there was a comic strip where Moomin was really excited to see Snufkin again. Then Little My asked him "Do you like him so much?" and Moomin started stuttering and blushing. It's definitely canon
How on earth I've only found your video now?? I loved it! Thank you for it! It makes me really happy seeing the show crew talking about it in such a lovely and honest way. I love the Moomins, this is such a beautiful development to Tove's stories... ❤
For those of ye who may not know,by the end of the books there's a part were moomin remembers snorkmaiden, but a "the girl with golden bangs" and she barely becomes a character that exists to moomin XD And a lot of hints and indirect quotes of moomin totally falling for snufkin. And even though we can never make it canon anymore,its highly acknowledged that tove definitely planned on snufkin and moomin to be a couple. But probably kept it vague for the fantasy. BUT INSTEAD TOTTALLY MADE TOOTICKY AND INVISIBLE GIRL I THINK?! CANON GAY CUZ SCREW THE LAW SAID TOVE AS SHE MARRIED A WOMEN PROBABLY MIDDLE FINGER UP AT THE FINNISH LAWS XD
Well Too-ticki was an actual nickname for Tooti so he's not exactly wrong for using it lol. But Tove created the Groke around the time she was with Vivica, so it most likely would've been fear about THAT relationship, but ehhh not really a thing to get hung-up over in a little creators' comments vid.
" You're gonna have to wait and give it time and be patient " Oh don't underestimate us fans we can wait entire years for a ship to be canon even though we know it won't happen. We can wait. We can do that
It's been renewed for a fourth season! They're currently working on it now and it has an estimated air date of late 2024. There's also a feature film under planning.
3:20 *laugh with ironical and probably not straight sense* I know they know. Just like, ive been watching this and oc, not straight sense. Thats beautyfull oK
the directors and producers and writers did a LOT of research for the series and Sophia Jansson was the creative director/consultant so there's not really any way they can ignore the queer themes!
@@amberlovesanimation I know but so many people ignore lgbt artists or just pretend that wasnt a huge portion of their lives 😪 it's nice to see they aren't tho!!!
Did that guy just call our feral cat boy a human? (ps: I love that the official depictions all have Snufkin looking fairly human but then the fandom is like "cat? Cat")
I don't think it's that they're loving too little or too much, I think it's more how they express their love. Moomintroll can often be too clingy and overbearing, whilst Snufkin can be too distant and emotionally closed-off. Though I personally believe that Moomintroll gains the independence he needs in Moominpappa at Sea whilst Snufkin gains the empathy and understanding of expressions of love & why they're so important to Moomintroll in Moominvalley in November.
Them while talking about snufkins relationship with moomin: tove jansson herself was in such a relationship" ........ya it's cannot no ifs ands or buts about it!
OKAY I KNOW THESE TWO ONLY FOR A FEW HOURS AND I CAN SAY AS A PERSON WHO HAS NEVER SEEN THEM BEFORE *big inhale* THAT THESE CUTE BOYFRIENDS ARE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER AND WILL BE TILL THE END OF THEIR WORLD. *FIGHT ME COWARD*
I am JUST entering the Moomin Fandom, where can I watch the 2019 version? I love the 70's version so far, but I wanna see this one too! (Also I had no idea Taron Edgerton played Moomintroll! That makes this so much better omg-)
6:33 that would translate more to "Moomintroll is allowed to like Snufkin more than he likes Snorkmaiden" but STILL IT'S,,,, I ,,, I MIGHT BE CRYING?????
aww I still love that so much!!
amberlovesanimation You got it sort of right but like Google-translate kind of right. The Swedish language is weird but I can try to explain,
“Får” means in this scenario to be allowed.
FÅR jag gå på toa? - Am I allowed to go to the bathroom?
Jag FÅR gå på toa. - I am allowed to go to the bathroom.
But sometimes it can be used forcedly, Like “will have to.”
Om ingen annan gör det, FÅR jag - If no one else wants to do it, I will have to.
Jag vill inte, så du FÅR göra det - I don’t want to, so you will have to do it.
So the right translation would have, as OP said, be;
“Moomintroll is ALLOWED to like...”

2. He also DESERVES all the love

The Moomintroll fandom has been around since (At the latest) the 90's, LONG before this show came around. I think the only thing that can cause the fandom to crash and burn at this point is the franchise just ceasing to exist.
6:29 This translation is wrong because of google translate I’m sure.
“You get to think about who you like” is wrong.
It should be
“You get to like whoever you want to like”
To “tycka” means to have a certain opinion or to THINK ABOUT, yes.
But to “Tycka OM” means to like.
Example:
“Vad tycker du?” - What do you think?
”Vad tycker du OM?” - What do you like?
I hope this made it clear.
Hyped Apple thank you! I’d pin the comment but I’ve already pinned one about the translation of a different sentence 🙃
amberlovesanimation I love Moomin and I’m so glad it’s finally getting the attention it deserves, even beyond scandinavia! So keep making videos and don’t worry too much! I’m sure other people from Scandinavia feel just like I do and are quick to help explain to you and your viewers! :D
I grew up with the 90's show, and i shipped them so much, like before i even knew that not everyone shipped same genders :S
Same with the Captain Sabertooth and his firstmate(Norwegian show) So imagine being so quiet about this and then finding TUMBLR just filled with my old ship ;-; fricking good.Thank u for setting this together
aww that's so lovely! np!
I feel so bad for all the Americans that can't just easily watch this show on TV
tbh it's not so easy in the UK, you have to have Sky or Now TV to watch it. I find it much easier to watch on a dodgy website online. But luckily for americans they are currently making deals to get it to air there as well
@@amberlovesanimation Ah of course but if you do have Sky (most people I know here do) you can easily watch the entire show on TV rather than finding it online. I hope they can get it aired in America though
Go to kisscartoon.com
@@detectivechicken864 I'm not American lol
@@detectivechicken864 wait is that site safe tho
How did I get here. This isn’t even my fandom... but I can’t stop watching clips of this show.
this was pretty much me... and then i joined the fandom a few days ago
You should watch it! If you don't live somewhere that it's easily accessible, you can find it on sites like kisscartoon or something. That's what I did, anyway. The 90s show is also available on TH-cam under Moomins Official, I believe...
Great shows. I finished season 1 of the 2019 version recently.
watching this in 2024 when we have been completely queerbaited is heart wrenching :')
I really want too watch this show
you should!!!!!!!
me too! but I don't know where to watch it :(
Noriaki Kakyoin if you don’t mind using kinda dodgy sites then this has all the episodes on it: www.thewatchcartoononline.tv/anime/moominvalley
amberlovesanimation OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SOMEHWERE TO WATCH IT
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I love how the entire fandom is like "pleaaase, make Snufmin happen? Pleeaaaase, we've been good! Lots of wholesome fanmade stuff if you don't look too deep into it! Please?" and the creators are just like ";)"
finnish interview: Moomintroll will like Snufkin more than snorkmaiden
me: *happiness noises*
One day snork maiden and snufkin are going to have to have the chat about how they will share moomintroll....
This all makes me think about one of tove's comics where snufkin leaves a trail of flowers for moomintroll to find him in spring. And little my asks " you look silly. Do you like him So much?"
"Er... I ... i suppose so...
"Don't you know?"
'Yes. But one doesn't SAY it..." moomin replies, blushing, and holding a sad looking flower.
One doesn't SAY it :( poor moomin keeping his feeling inside....
my mom watched moomin as a kid and I remember watching the older series on mexican channels and they always had such a complex relationship to my little brain.
*_I really want Snufmin to become Canon_*
I mean I've read a few books so far, saw the 90s anime and moominvalley and saw a few comics panels and like. For obvious reasons Tove couldn't back them have said clear that yeah they are gay but it's also obvious to anime that Snufkin and Moomin are in love.
That said I'll too cry tears of joy when they'll be clear canon ♡
knowing it probably wont be cannon makes me so sad akkskas i love them so much 😔😔😔😔😔this show makes me so happy and sad at the same time whyy
honestly still love snufkin and moomins relationship rather platonic or romantic, they honestly have such a cool dynamic and although id be happy if they made it cannon, im perfectly happy with a platonic relationship :)
when you're finnish so you understad all three languages in this video
To be fair the orginal author based moomin and snufkin on herself and her Fiance' so their relationship isnt really intended to be just platonic? Like, its almost definitely going to have romantic undertones
Ya know what, I don't even need Snufmin to been canon anyway. No matter what it is that they have, gay, strait, strong platonic relationship over periodically long distance, they will forever have one of the sweetest bonds of love, mutual respect and admiration ever shown in such a widespread cartoon. I think that's what Tove would have wanted most fundamentally of all.
This seems like such a soft show,,,, if anyone tries to make it crash and burn like Voltron I’m gonna vore them cause this show deserves to be supported, no matter what happens
nah moomins has a much richer history than voltron and on the whole the new series has been received well, so fingers crossed!
To me the girls' bewildered faces (upon being asked about the possibility of Moomin and Snorkmaiden marrying) are the most telling thing here. Like, that's just a normal question. But to them that's FUNNY. And "too young to marry" argument is smart for shutting down the Snorkmaiden route, but then the whole crew talks a LOT about love as one of the main themes of the series - so it's not like no "romance" isn't planned. Just not romance with Snorkmaiden. It seems... there's really a high chance of them pulling this off. the GAY
I pray for this SO BAD ARGHHH
IT’S PRONOUNCED TOO-VEY?!?! I THOUGHT IT WAS TOH-V LMAO
Until season 2 premieres, I'm pinning all of my Snufmin hopes on this video!
do we have like any idea about if that's actually gonna happen because I've searched online and found nothing about a second season
@@astromoonie yep they have confirmed we'll have multiple seasons if they're still doing the same amount of episode batches and not all in one go lol
@@astromoonie in an interview they said it should have 4 or 5 seasons in total
Aaaaahhhh.... im not exaggerating when I say im crying
the way he said that Tove was literally in a relationship that snufmin's relationship is supposed to represent sends.
not to mention the context behind "suhde", it translates to relationship, but has more of a 'romantic relationship' meaning rather than 'platonic relationship' (you just say "ystävyys", ((friendship)) for that)
ooOOOoooh, how this fell. Season 2 was relatively weaker than season 1 in my personal opinion, but the later episodes were absolutely fantastic. Though, with the fact they said they'd touch upon Snufkin and Moomin's relationship more, Snufkin only appeared for a specific few episodes, on in which Moomin was absent. I'd say they're just playing at our heartstrings by this point, but the season was just as good as always, even though it was still only 13 eps.
we really aren’t gonna talk about the Moomin valley soundtrack or-
i fell in love with moomins within 3 days and i cannot get enough of these two cjdk this makes my bi heart quite happy
The phrase *THEN SNUFKIN IS AGAIN SUSH A LONELY SOUL.* made me mad
Don’t talk about snufkin he good boi
ohhhh my god im crying thank you for this
you're very welcome (:
YEARS.
3 YEARS AND WE'LL CONTINUE WITH THEIR STORY.
they'll better make em hug smh 😓😓😓
Edit: aight read comments I was a dumb dumb :)
3???? Season 3’s coming out end of 2021/2022 so it’s 1 and a bit, 2 years at most
@@amberlovesanimation my disappointment has retracted and my day is saved 😌 thank you for clearing that up!
So it’s just a slowburn
I hope so. I'd prefer a slowburn over nothing
I like it if the feelings aren’t confirmed and vague, there were always feelings implied for snufkin because Snufkin was representative of one Atos Wirtanen. I like ambiguity a lot, because the characters are concrete but they’re also the forces of Tove’s mind and representative of the people in her sphere so they don’t need to be set in stone or confirm it but just let it be what it already was to Tove.
WOW!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!! WOW!!!!!! THe serotonin i received from this
I really, really want to ship this. I’m just terrified of getting queerbaited again and then being sad.
shipping something does not equal expecting it to be canon. shipping something just means you personally think the characters would be good together. but I am interested to see if moominvalley does anything explicit with any of the subtext they've given, though my hopes are low.
amberlovesanimation yeah I know. I’m just scared if I ship it I’ll get my hopes up and it’ll end up being not canon and then I’ll be disappointed lol
6:34
Ya looking for this beautiful moment?
I think a polygamous relationship would be lovely and is certainly on the table, but I do wish snufkin and snorkmaiden had more interaction :) also I feel kind of silly writing their names haha
You made my day! This is all I needed in my life
😊
Look lets be honest, SHIPPING MOOMIN AND SNUFKIN IS UNIVERSAL
I literally love that moomin and snufkin are lowkey gay
Also the groke scares the shit out of me but i love her too?
I also read the official Moomin comics by Tove Jansson and there was a comic strip where Moomin was really excited to see Snufkin again. Then Little My asked him "Do you like him so much?" and Moomin started stuttering and blushing. It's definitely canon
But yet we are stupid for thinking that it was all queerbaiting.
I will literally cry if snufmin comes to be. I would just be so full of happy.
I need Joxter in Moominvalley
I need him and Snufmin .-.
You know, I think I’m just going to step back and wait and see what happens. I trust the writers.
How on earth I've only found your video now?? I loved it! Thank you for it! It makes me really happy seeing the show crew talking about it in such a lovely and honest way. I love the Moomins, this is such a beautiful development to Tove's stories... ❤
I rlly hope they put the series on Netflix, amazon prime video, or Hulu, it’ll mean the world to me
i have as much hope for snufmin being canon as i had about tyrus being canon in andi mack
For those of ye who may not know,by the end of the books there's a part were moomin remembers snorkmaiden, but a "the girl with golden bangs" and she barely becomes a character that exists to moomin XD
And a lot of hints and indirect quotes of moomin totally falling for snufkin. And even though we can never make it canon anymore,its highly acknowledged that tove definitely planned on snufkin and moomin to be a couple. But probably kept it vague for the fantasy.
BUT INSTEAD TOTTALLY MADE TOOTICKY AND INVISIBLE GIRL I THINK?! CANON GAY CUZ SCREW THE LAW SAID TOVE AS SHE MARRIED A WOMEN PROBABLY MIDDLE FINGER UP AT THE FINNISH LAWS XD
I love how they use the name of the F-ING CHARACHTER instead of the gal´s actual name
Well Too-ticki was an actual nickname for Tooti so he's not exactly wrong for using it lol. But Tove created the Groke around the time she was with Vivica, so it most likely would've been fear about THAT relationship, but ehhh not really a thing to get hung-up over in a little creators' comments vid.
" You're gonna have to wait and give it time and be patient "
Oh don't underestimate us fans we can wait entire years for a ship to be canon even though we know it won't happen. We can wait. We can do that
sadly it's what the LGBT+ community is used to 🙃
We've been waiting for this since 1945 :D
Damn, reading the comment section under these videos is so refreshing... this fandom is surprisingly untoxic, mind if I join it? Lol
Re-watching this because i get nostalgia 😳🥺
I really hope they make a new season
It's been renewed for a fourth season! They're currently working on it now and it has an estimated air date of late 2024. There's also a feature film under planning.
@@amberlovesanimation :OO
"Moomin will always like Snufkin more than Snorkmaiden."
And Snorkmaiden will always like Little My more than Moomin.
Everyone wins.
Omg I grew up with the queerest show in freaking history and I didn't think anything of it ToT This is how we raise kids
*Happy bisexual noises*
You have warmed my heart with all this splendid information💕
Natie Green you have warmed mine with your splendid comment! 💕
3:20 *laugh with ironical and probably not straight sense*
I know they know. Just like, ive been watching this and oc, not straight sense.
Thats beautyfull oK
I know it's small but it makes me stupid happy that the people on the show acknowledge that Tove was Bi and that she loved a woman
the directors and producers and writers did a LOT of research for the series and Sophia Jansson was the creative director/consultant so there's not really any way they can ignore the queer themes!
@@amberlovesanimation I know but so many people ignore lgbt artists or just pretend that wasnt a huge portion of their lives 😪 it's nice to see they aren't tho!!!
Did that guy just call our feral cat boy a human? (ps: I love that the official depictions all have Snufkin looking fairly human but then the fandom is like "cat? Cat")
well he's NOT a human, and marika makaroff has been very clear about this throughout production of moominvalley.
Snufkin loves too little, and moomintroll too much. They both need to learn how they can learn to love.
I don't think it's that they're loving too little or too much, I think it's more how they express their love. Moomintroll can often be too clingy and overbearing, whilst Snufkin can be too distant and emotionally closed-off. Though I personally believe that Moomintroll gains the independence he needs in Moominpappa at Sea whilst Snufkin gains the empathy and understanding of expressions of love & why they're so important to Moomintroll in Moominvalley in November.
OHH YAS I LOVE YOU BB AAAAAHH 💖💖💕💖💖💖💗💕💞💞💗💗💖💖🎶
Them while talking about snufkins relationship with moomin: tove jansson herself was in such a relationship" ........ya it's cannot no ifs ands or buts about it!
I don't rlly watch moominvalley but I love snufmin already!!
coming back now all i can feel is disappointed, they promised all this and then season 4 was... not that.
OKAY I KNOW THESE TWO ONLY FOR A FEW HOURS AND I CAN SAY AS A PERSON WHO HAS NEVER SEEN THEM BEFORE
*big inhale*
THAT THESE CUTE BOYFRIENDS ARE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER AND WILL BE TILL THE END OF THEIR WORLD.
*FIGHT ME COWARD*
I really wanna meet Taron Egerton and show him my fanart of my favorites of his characters.
I am JUST entering the Moomin Fandom, where can I watch the 2019 version? I love the 70's version so far, but I wanna see this one too!
(Also I had no idea Taron Edgerton played Moomintroll! That makes this so much better omg-)
