Ronja the Robber's Daughter, the 26-episode CGI series co-produced by Studio Ghibli and Polygon Pictures, is now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video with English dub and subtitle options. The show adapts Astrid Lindgren's classic Swedish children's fantasy novel of the same name.
Directed by Gorō Miyazaki, the series follows Ronja, the daughter of a charismatic robber chief, as she navigates the complexities of her family's life and the treacherous forests surrounding her father's castle. It's a coming-of-age story set against a backdrop of mythical creatures and the bonds of friendship, featuring a full CGI animation style that was notably different for the involved studios at the time of its Fall 2014 premiere.
While the CGI animation style may be a departure for fans accustomed to traditional Ghibli hand-drawn visuals, the narrative remains true to Lindgren's beloved tale. The series explores themes of nature, family, and independence, offering a gentle adventure suitable for younger audiences and adults alike. With all 26 episodes finished, it presents a complete story ready for binging.
