I noticed a big explosion of teen web-series and teenage everything in the past decade alone. I also thought that from 2014 onwards, Dora already went to aim at elementary school kids and tweenagers.
Netflix's "Tarzan and Jane" romance/adventure web serial would have been competing with Caribara's own Astro Boy comedy/adventure show (I really hastily nicknamed its titular character the "Euro Boy", because my Dad currently noticed that time's running out for the European Union to get fixed! I guess that this French Astro Boy will be much different from the innovatively beloved 2003 robot nicknamed "Boxy Boy" and his 3D/anime/tokusatsu relatives from 1959, 1963, 1980, and 2009)and of course, Nick's Dora and Friends.
Oh yeah! In the future, I wonder if fans will be bringing up (and also expanding) the Disney Tarzan film franchise for years to come? I guess that Euro Boy (unlike the older relatives which model on different characters, except for the well remembered "Boxy Boy" which is partly inspired by comic icons of the old West and East blocs like Hergé and Zhu Zhixiang, which had been animated by Shinji Seya!) would also be a robot adopted by a human family who loves to treat him as a person, as Disney’s classic Tarzan is to his fellow gorillas!
Awkward!
