Hunting Mice Is His Delight; Hunting Words I Sit All Night

[moon_custafer]

Why have I not seen this before? Even from the clips I found on youtube, I'm grinning -- Samurai Jack-style animation, filled with little details: Pangur Ban has one blue and one green eye; Aisling can't pass between iron bars (or into a monastery, most likely), so she sends the cat into the building, turned to knotwork under her singing, as a thread to lead Brendan out.

Also, um, problematic Vikings, albeit the story does need a Big Bad.

I don't think anyone's likely to complain about the problematic Vikings, more's the pity; probably get more complaints about the equally problematic design of that one black monk, I'd think. But yeah, Kells is beautiful and affecting, gorgeously made, a delight. I have a copy.

Wow, I've never seen such richly patterned iconic animation like that before!
