A VERY mixed bag of a series.
Shortly put, some episodes are downright fantastic while the others had me dozing off with just how incredibly dull they were.
When the show decides to go for a more serialised approach with proper story arcs and continuity, it's really good. Dolf makes for a seriously great villain and the show is at it's peak whenever he takes a greater role in the story. But whenever the show leans torwards the more episodic, slice-of-life writing style, the episode quality can vary wildly.
There is also a noticeable drop / shift in animation quality at around the halfway mark of the series. While the first 26 or so episodes varied between okay and really good, the episode quality definitely takes a hit after the "Reign of Dolf"- story arc, both in terms of writing and anim…

This is the FIRST anime serie i,ve seen on t.v as a kid with my sister ( back at the time i din't knew anything about anime, too young, ) but i notice'd that it looked diffrent and more well done background sketckes than any other cartoon i've watched then so far ( i was around 3,5 years old) back in '89. On air on t.v it became a very populair cartoon for the kids and the further the story developed, it went to a darkertwist somewhat offensive with some sign's of WW2 and the rasicm apartheid in back then South-Afrika something u NEVER EVER seen in american cartoons. Alfred Jodocus Kwak , full name in dutch, and other chara. had a very long and on/off relationship with eachother ever since class, but for alfred later on ( and his father Henk the mole) it involves as well some otherworldy a…

Ahiru no Quack, or better known as Alfred J. Kwak is a dutch anime aimed at kids.
But unlike most cartoons aimed at kids, Alfred J. Kwak features lots of mature and mostly sad the,es. Amongst others it deals with various social and political issues, like abuse, or power. Even with all these negative themes, the shows about important values too, like friendship, family and solidarity.
The anime is notable for the political themes on which it points a highlight. In the anime ...our main protagonist fights a evil fascist dictator, takes in refugees, saves whales against hunter and even oversees the changeover of his country from an sbolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy.
Such themes are far from typical in a children'sanime, and form a big part of Alfred J. Kwak's appeal. Other epis…
