WinneToons is a 26-part German cartoon series that is loosely based on characters from the novel Winnetou Part 1 by Karl May . The first episode ran on March 30, 2002 on ARD . Then the episodes were repeated on the KiKA . The pilot was released on DVD by Universal. In 2009 there was a movie adaptation with the title WinneToons - The Legend of the Treasure in the Silver Lake .
content
The individual completed episodes depict child-friendly adventure stories, without explicit depictions of violence or bloody scenes, from the time of the characters Winnetou and Old Shatterhand between their blood brotherhood and the murder of Winnetou's father Intschu tschuna and his sister Nscho-tschi . All stories are fictitious and do not appear in the original novel. Many other people from the Karl May universe accompany her on her adventures, such as Hobble Frank , Aunt Droll and Sam Hawkens .
Since the series is also marketed internationally, it was subtitled “The World of Karl May” on the DVD and the soundtrack .
Although the series was written in the USA and created by cartoonists in China, some concessions to the Japanese anime style have been incorporated into the series for the international market . Nscho-chi is accompanied by two animals, fast food , a coyote and Misty , a skunk.
Curiosity: As in the Karl May films (played by Lex Barker ), Old Shatterhand does not wear a cowboy hat in this series either.
music
The serial music was written by Adrian Askew . The title melody is a modification of "Ride the Hurricane's Eye" by the Rednex group .
