haha. “he’ll never Twitter again!.”
i just love that.


@AloraHalora lol. i know i was just thinking that


@AloraHalora
Yeah lmao, probably dumb japanese people and their inability to translate.


I like the story, but what about her mom o_o she’s the one who dearly wanted a child like thumbelina, then all of a sudden she’s gone like that. And Thumblelina never looked back at it o_o eh.


what about thumbelina’s mum???


weird fairy tale, all animals love small human kids, a mole should be liking a other mole or a toad a other toad but no, all animals are horney over a small human.
They want to marrie her after just seeing her, hear her sing and see her dance but no one of the animals truly knows what she is like or what so ever. Even the king of flowers.


i love this story.


This one too… =’)


4 me the mole is P.I.M.P lol hahahahahahha


this is so cool.^^


I wish the mother in the beginning had an explanation to all this. She must be crying her eyes out in worry, certainly not a happy ending for her.


Thumbelina`s been made into an anime too?!Lol,awesome :D


That mole is a nasty child molester…. lol


fuck the mole..


I hear you!! If I was Thumblelina, I would beat the mole down!!


I find it weird that a Thumbelina story never says anything about Thumbelina’s mother after the frog kidnaps Thumbelina. Isn’t she worried. The stories leave the children with disturbing questions about the mother.


Lol I just loathe that movie…But I liked that she stayed with her mom too!


This is why I will like Don Bluth’s because her mother was there at the fairy wedding lol.


i dont remember the match girl talking in the video i watched


I love to watch this in anime


That mole is so mean! I keep imagining the swallow coming back to life and kicks the mole and pecks him then flies off with Thumbelina.


I know right? How can Thumbelina just run off with her Prince and forget her mom?
I wouldn’t!!


agree!
