reception

The Süddeutsche Zeitung describes the television series as "captivating and educationally valuable", as it conveys values ​​such as tolerance free of prejudice against strangers and arouses " curiosity , courage and awe " towards new adventures. The animation and the soundscape are coordinated "with the charm" and are based on the template. The series retains a childish, funny and imaginative style without looking old-fashioned and too cute and stands out with the many characters. The Standard therefore also compares the series with films by Studio Ghibli , such as Spirited Away . It is also compared to the Welcome to Gravity Falls and Adventure Time animated series .

The series received three awards from three nominated categories at the 46th Annie Awards on February 2, 2019, as well as one award from four nominated categories at the 46th Daytime Creative Arts Emmy Awards on May 5, 2019.
