Bad Date: Episode 31 depicts a truly terrible group date with three couples. Apology Gift: Jervis shows up with flowers after he criticizes Judy's novel. Anonymous Benefactor: See the plot summary, above! This is pretty much the lynchpin of the plot. She's even treated this way at high school for a bit, but they grow to like her quickly. This also leads to her attitude about there being no real charity and kindness in the world. Due to being bullied so frequently for being an orphan, Judy lashed out at kids even who were being nice to her, believing they would bully her too. All of the Other Reindeer: Judy's whole childhood. This doesn't seem to apply to Julia's father, who while he does go along with his wife's plans, it's either out of absentmindedness or he is unaware of the whole situation. And it's glorious to watch her break down when Judy gains the courage to reveal her past. She later looks into Judy's background, knowing she's interested in Jervis (who is her younger brother), and plans to tell everyone Judy's humble beginnings to keep her away from him since a banker's daughter is interested in him. Later on, she tries to force Julia into an Arranged Marriage and due to Julia turning the boy down, she blames Judy for her daughter's sudden disobedience. In her first appearance, she forcibly takes Julia away from her friends for Christmas, and scolds her for crying. Here, however, she is much less genial, seemingly only concerned about wealth and status. In the original novel, she was simply a rich woman that Judy thought was a bit snobbish but friendly enough. Adaptational Villainy: Julia's mother. In this series, while still very strict, is kinder and genuinely loves the orphans in her care, only prevented from doing more for them by the trustees' stinginess. We don't see much of her in the original book, but in the sequel book Dear Enemy, Sallie describes her as pocketing most of the money given by the trustees, only giving the orphans the bare minimum needed to survive, and actively prevented Judy from getting adopted. She uses the name Jerusha for the lead heroine in one of her stories. Adaptation Name Change: Judy's first name in the books is Jerusha, while in this series, she is named Judy from being found as a baby. Download daddy long legs cartoon 1990 series#
Adaptation Expansion: Although the original novel could probably have easily been covered in a one-season series (11-13 episodes), it had to be padded out with new characters, new incidents, and new arcs in order to make a 40-episode series.Adaptation Dye-Job: Sallie is a redhead in the original books, but here she is brunette, most likely because Judy is a redhead here, though Judy's hair color is never mentioned in either book.Since Tatsunoko's version was dubbed into English and released in America while the Nippon Animation series was not, English-language sources sometimes confuse the two (and confounding this is the fact that Judy is a redhead in both versions, though she does not have Girlish Pigtails in Tatsunoko's).

This series is the second anime adaptation of Webster's novel, preceded by a Tatsunoko Production TV special in 1979 which was directed by future Superbook director Masakazu Higuchi. Insert Songs were also added to showcase the singing talents of Judy's voice actress, Mitsuko Horie.
The plot is also fleshed out with additional story arcs and characters, which was necessary in order to transform a relatively short epistolary novel into a 40-episode series. The setting is roughly the same in terms of geography, but the time period changed from the Pre-World War I era to The Roaring '20s. In the novel, she is a college student in the anime, she is a high school student. Despite sharing the main characters and many plot events, the anime series differs significantly from the novel in many ways.
