My favorite cartoon character - Kakeru & Blink in "Blue Duma"

Besides Benben, my favorite cartoon character in my childhood was Kakeru. "Cyan Duma" is a very small cartoon, even though it was shown on CCTV, it didn't seem to attract too many children's attention.

The boy Kakeru rescued a blue pony Blink, and the pony decided to help Kakeru in the future. The father of the little boy Kakeru is a children's writer. Because the writing was hijacked, the little boy and the pony went after his father.


The plot is very simple, but it seems to be engraved in my childhood mind. The blue pony (Duma) is often mixed with the hazy and rare spring rain, and finally turns into the scattered rain ripples in the eyes of childhood.


The color scheme of "Cyan Duma" fascinates me. It is not the big red and green of traditional cartoons, nor does it have lively plots, but it persistently pursues goals and expectations, and seems to hide a kind of ordinary power. The similarities between it and "Benben" are also its persistent "seeking" for the goal. How wonderful! How much I wanted a blue Duma when I was a child, galloping all over the world!

Naturally, villains are indispensable. They are the villains in "Cyan Duma". ——>

They remind me of Don Quijote from Cervantes, and they're about the same size. They also have the same persistence and pursuit.

Wikipedia pointed out that "Cyan Duma" borrowed from Russia's "The Little Humpbacked Horse", reminding me that "Чебурашка" is also an extended masterpiece borrowed from Soviet cartoon characters in Japan-seems to be a very interesting clue.
