Tottoi

First (or one of the) anime film I’ve seen, in VHS - rented from ACA video! I think I was 9 or 10 years old. I have been thinking about this film for a very looong time, not knowing what the title was. Like I would just randomly think of this movie sometimes. This film made an impact when I was a child, I don’t know why but I’ve never forgotten this! Some of the things that I remembered and stood out:

Island of Sardinia - of course as a child, it was weird that they lived in a town that sounded like sardines

The food they ate - I always thought it was chocolate with fish! (sardines? lol)

Name of the kid Tottoi - sounded like tutoy which meant breast in Bisaya language (my mother’s from Davao :)

Seals! children friends with animals - of course i loved it as a kid!Don’t even remember the story that much but now I can watch it again, after 15-20 years? haha i want to know why this movie made such an impact in my early years. I guess it was also because I remember watching this with my family ^^
