Shin Takarajima
This was the premiere—and only episode—of Mushi Pro Land, a groundbreaking series of 60-minute animated programs that never actually got off the ground. At the time, it was Japan's first 60-minute animated TV show, making it a pretty significant milestone even if the series itself didn't survive. The story adapts Stevenson's "Treasure Island," but with a twist: all the characters are animals. Jim, the main character, becomes a rabbit, while the pirate Silver gets reimagined as a wolf. It's worth noting this has nothing to do with Tezuka's "New Treasure Island" manga, despite the similar premise.
