  2. It was the very first time Marsupilami SPEAKS, thanks to his voice actor, Steve Mackall.
  3. Marsupilami's character design was 100% faithful to the comic book line by Belgian artist André Franquin.
  4. The animation was superb for the early-1990s standards.
  5. Great voice acting.

Bad Qualities

  1. Not very faithful to the source material
    • Most of the characters from the Marsupilami franchise, especially Bring M. Backalive, doesn't appeared for this series. Bring M. Backalive was replaced by Norman.
    • Some people who are fans of the original comics don't like it when Marsupilami speaks.
  2. The theme song was extremely clownish.
  3. Maurice the Gorilla provides too much gross-out humor.
