#tabaluga cartoon

[fireheart223]

I finally decided to redo my Tabaluga AU (which I've finally given the nickname of, "Raise A Dragon"!), same concept ofc, but with just some slightly different designs! So enjoy the long post, I guess!

Here's Tabaluga! (The Taba-boy!!!) His cheeks, pupils and belly are blue and his eyes and cheeks slight sparkle blue, and his heart is also literally frozen, yet, he is somehow still alive.

These are all after effects of being deep-frozen before he was born. He has been raised by Arktos and James his whole life, and he thinks his species died out bc of some kind of accident or smth like that. Despite the two people who he was raised by, he has a heart of gold, and is very reluctant to hurt anyone or anything, finding it extremely hard to carry out his fathers' (especially Arktos') orders of destruction, but he does them anyways because it's what he's been taught to do.

He keeps seeing a shadowy silhouette of someone that looks similar to him in his dreams every night (Tyrion!). It doesn't seem to make noise, but it moves its mouth as if it is speaking to him, or at least, is trying to. Tabaluga often wonders who the shadowy dragon is is. He mentioned it once to Arktos, and then never mentioned it again because it seemed to cause Arktos to have a panic attack.

Tabaluga loves to explore Grünland a lot! At first, he was allowed to basically go anywhere in Grünland but Drachen Rock (As in this AU, unlike the actual cartoon, Arktos is very aware of Tyrion's spirit and does not want Tabaluga to find Tyrion for very obvious reasons lol. Him and James also put a sort of fence (like those ones at school that you can try to shove your in to climb but are barely to small to fit in) in front of any entrances to the River of Time so Tabaluga can not get in there and find out about the past that way either. Thankfully, the River is still flowing just fine.). But recently, Arktos has become much stricter with Tabaluga, starting to deny Tabaluga access to even places the dragon had been allowed to go to before. This newfound strictness has only made Tabaluga's identity crisis (and along with it), his mental health, worse too. This has caused Tabaluga to start disobeying Arktos in an attempt to find out more about the truth of who he is and what happened to his species. So far he has not been able to find out much, but one day, potentially, he might just find the horrible truth of what happened to his species.

Here's Arktos and James, who I have basically turned into their Season 1 counterparts with only slight additions to Arktos. James is very gay for Arktos and quite shy about it, and Arktos is just fucking oblivious to James' crush on him.

In this AU, they managed to find out about Tabaluga's egg and stop it from hatching by deep-freezing it. They take it back and just when Arktos is about to destroy it, James gets the idea of raising the dragon instead because of how powerful dragons can become. After some slight musing, Arktos accepts the idea and they raise the dragon. The reason Tabaluga is called Tabaluga here in this AU is because Arktos recalls a time when he and Tyrion were still friends, that, Tyrion, one time, mentioned he wanted to name his son Tabaluga, and Arktos decides to name the dragon that in some sort of attempt at irony.

After so many years of raising Tabaluga, Arktos has started to think of Tabaluga less as a tool of power, and more as his own son, not that he'd ever admit it. However, Shouhu's words of a new chapter beginning in his life, one that will last a thousand years is always haunting Arktos, as Arktos believers that new chapter Shouhu was talking about was him discovering and now currently raising Tabaluga. This has caused Arktos to fear the possibility that when Tabaluga is 10 (1 dragon year equals 100 Greenland years), he is going to discover the truth and leave. And as a result, Arktos has become more stricter with the dragon, especially when it comes to exploring Grünland. But this strictness might potentially lead to his downfall if he doesn't stop.

James considers Tabaluga his son as well, but more openly so than Arktos. James is also much less strict with the dragon than Arktos. He sees the danger of Arktos becoming more strict with Tabaluga, as he can tell it's causing the young dragon to disobey, and James tries to get Arktos to become less strict with the little dragon, but Arktos will not listen to him (or anyone else for that matter) about his strictness on Tabaluga out of pride and the fear that if he even just slightly eases on the strictness before the dragon is over 10, Tabaluga will immediately go out and find out about the truth.

James, as the years have gone by, has also gained confidence enough to occasionally try and drop a hint to Arktos that his feelings run deeper than just simply loyalty. And Arktos has actually become a little less oblivious and started to pick up on James' crush on him, albeit he only notices it occasionally.

Here's just random other doodles of this AU!

The first doodle was just an experiment with album design style, but then I thought of my AU and l got the idea of redesigning Arktos for this AU. Once I decided to redesign him, I drew the other two sketches and then decided to redesign James as well because, why not, and also for the same reason I redesigned Arktos, that being them looking too similar to my main Tabaluga fanon/canon/AU designs for them!

Poor Tabaluga in this AU has an ongoing identity crisis. He wonders if he is really the Prince of Eiswelt or if he is the last of his kind. Honestly, if he ever were to find out what happened to his species, he would need lots and LOTS of therapy.

And finally this doodle (which actually features an actual design for Tyrion!)! This scene is a little doodle is of a point where Arktos decides to go to Drachen Rock to mock to Tyrion about how well he's raising the dead dragon's son. But Tyrion isn't even bothered, in fact he's amused! Because as Tyrion points out, it's quite ironic that Arktos is raising the last child of the species he swore to destroy. By the end of the scene, and Arktos is leaving, he is strating to have internal conflicts on whether or not he's actually starting to get attached to Tabaluga as his son more than a tool for power. Basically, Arktos starts to wonder if he has started to think of Tabaluga as his son.

(Also I keep saying ''potentially'' to signify events that have the potential to occur in this AU at some point, but at the same time they have the potential to not occur. I know, confusing, but just stick w/ it)

Today I discovered a German animated cartoon called "Tabaluga" and there's a fully-fledged movie that has a villain song sung by an evil snowman named Arktos.

This is the English dub, with Arktos voiced by Benedict Campbell, who also did King K. Rool. (@bramble-scramble)

Despite it being only like a minute and a half long, this song FUCKS.

I am not joking. Or exaggerating.

The lyrics go way harder than it should be, Benedict Campbell sounds amazing, and the music is really catchy as hell! It's just such a shame that it isn't longer.

The reason why I'm bringing this to everyone's attention is because of the sheer disappointment I have for Disney's Wish. Imagine releasing a brand new film for your company's 100th anniversary that brings back the classic fairytale magic that every fan loves, only to have it suck so hard that a fucking SNOWMAN from a German cartoon that's practically almost unknown in America is a better Disney Villain than the ACTUAL DISNEY VILLAIN.

What in the actual fuck is this timeline?!

I know someone else already made a post like this, but I wanna make the joke:

Cartoon!Arktos: "D'oh, that stupid dragon foiled my plans again! Someone give me some ice cream!"

Movie!Arktos: "Hey kid, wanna see a dead body?!"

Movie Arktos is just so much more evil than show Arktos it's crazy. Like it's almost hard to believe that they're the same character the gap is so wide

I'm rewatching the original Tabaluga cartoon rn and I couldn't help but do some silly meme redraws... I also have more fan art to post 😊

[bogleech]

I streamed the first 23 episodes of Tabaluga today (and I’d do it again!!!!) but I had to track down episode 20 myself because the guy who uploaded the series to Kimcartoon hates it and he also hates all episodes beyond season 1 which he fights about with people in the comments. How do you get to be a kimmy cartoon uploader, I wanna put the rest up and annoy their lone tabaluga guy

So, I remember when I first look at this evil snowman character from the cartoon called Tabaluga I was like "Oh, I never heard of this before". Someone told me the cartoon was about the last dragon trying to protect his home, Greenland from the evil snowman for turning everything into snow or something. I'm like "Hey, why not draw him for fun random". So, I did it. Sorry his hat looks weird lol P.S. This were made by Germany?! Wow, way to play Germany!
