Thought I'd ask if anyone on here also remembers the old anime series that Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. used to air in the 80s and early 90s? Shows like The Adventures of the Little Koala, The Littl' Bits, Grimms Fairy Tale Classics, and a few others that used to be on that channel. I used to like watching them back when I was a kid and admit I didn't know they were anime until the late 90s. Recently watched a few eps on youtube. The dubs like many of that time haven't aged as well by today's standards, but I still find them enjoyable.

I'm pretty sure none of those are actually anime titles, so hence that is not an appropriate question for this forum.

EDIT: Apparently I was mistaken (an alternate name threw me off), so this thread is reinstated. However, the OP still doesn't offer much of a discussion point.

OH MAH GOD, YES.

These were my first introductions to anime....although I didn't know what it was back then!

I've been looking for Littl' Bits since forever. Apparently all copies of the episodes got thrown off the face of the earth somehow. D:

Amusing fact: "Littl' Bits"'s original title was
"Mori No Naka No Kobito-tachi".
......yeah, the reason for the change is evident. Anime hyper

I loved all of these especially Maya and Grimm's fairy tales and only in the past couple years realized they were anime.

Even as a kid I remember thinking these type of shows were better than a lot of other things I was watching. Grimm's fairy tale even had a slightly dark feeling to it which I really loved.

The episode that I remember really vividly is when the girl was turned into a bird and kept in a cage by a witch (okay maybe I don't remember all the details).

Anyways I guess I was an anime fan before I even realized it.
