Sometimes with all the fanart and the discussion around the representation she embodies I forget how honestly triumphant her ending was. She was given a face by finally fighting back. She's terribly behaved and laughed loudly for the first time, and her previous politeness was not mourned, what was important was that she was finally herself.
She was finally allowed to be rude and loud and laugh at the misfortune of another creature, she was allowed to be a real child.
Also her 1969 design is so goofy and I love the idea of her becoming a tomboy after her story concludes but she's still hanging around the Valley.

Residents of Moominvalley
I’ve been rewatching the 90s Moomins show I used to watch when I was a kid and man it brought back so many memories! I just had to doodle out some of the characters :)

Dragon Adopter
A small but important character in the Last Dragon on Earth chapter of Tales From Moominvalley, he rows down a river looking for fish but no luck. He comes across Snufkin who is looking to get rid of the tiny dragon and the Hemulen felt suspicious because he's not used to receiving gifts. Snufkin then tells him what to do with the dragon and sends him on the way.
Hatton the Prospector
A character who only appears in the 90s episode the Treasure Hunt, he is a prospector with an expertise in rocks and is looking for gold (but not for himself). He visits Moominhouse for some tea and comes down with a terrible fever for the next few weeks, after he gets better, he leaves the Moomins with a map to supposed gold, though he doesn't believe in it himself. This starts a chain reaction where everyone in Moominvalley is looking for gold in that exact spot, leading to the formation of Mr. Hemulen's new garden.

tales from moominvalley chapter two is such a jumpscare because why did we go from snufkin learning something about himself to two young brothers trying to survive a war

"...somewhere to the west Moominpappa was wandering along..." #1962Club #Moomins
Back in 2017, on a trip to London to meet up with my old friend J and visit an exhibition of Tove Jansson art, I picked up a copy of “Tales from Moominvalley” (translated by Thomas Warburton). J and I had realised that neither of us owned this slim collection of Moomin stories, and so we snaffled the only two copies in Foyles! It has sat waiting patiently on Mount TBR for its moment, and as the…

- Secret of the Hattifatteners, Tales From Moominvalley.
I really really really need you all to know how much of a wife guy Moominpappa is actually, like even if they're not super outwardly affectionate in the books, Moominmamma trusts Moominpappa very deeply and Moominpappa's definition of "home" always links back to Moominmamma. He is the waves and she is the shore.
(excerpts of Moominpappa thinking about Moominmamma and only Moominmamma whenever he gets reminded of home v)
He went back to the boat, shaking his paws like a cat. Some of the spiders had crawled on to him, and he thought it very unpleasant.
They soon found the painter also and started to crawl along it in a thin red procession, and from there further along the gunwale.
Moominpappa seated himself as far astern as possible.
This is something one dreams, he thought. And then one awakens with a jerk to tell Moominmamma: ‘You can’t imagine how horrible, dearest, such a lot of spiders, you never…’
And she awakens too and replies: ‘Oh, poor Pappa – that was a dream, there aren’t any spiders here…’
(...)
It was a small scroll of birch-bark, of the sort the sea likes to curl up and throw ashore. Nothing else. You can unroll them like documents: inside they’re white and silk-smooth, and as soon as they’re released they curl shut again. Exactly like a small fist clasped about a secret. Moominmamma used to keep one around the handle of her tea-kettle.
(...)
Moominpappa had laid himself on his back and was staring up at the pale green leaves around him. Light, delicate leaves against a dark sky. In his easy-chair at home he had a cushion embroidered with fern leaves by Moominmamma. Pale green leaves against black felt. It was very beautiful.
