Sound & Music

This page holds all the sound files, lyrics and facts that somehow belong to the Little Women anime. They were originally collected for Project WMTSound

European versions:
The Italian, French and German version of the opening song have all the same melody, but of course different native lyrics. The Germans used this melody for the opening of  the Little Men anime too, the lyrics are different though. The melody is very nice in my opinion!

Japan:
In Japan the OP/ED changed after the 14th episode, so there are two different openings and endings! I don't know the reason, perhaps the first versions weren't popular enough.

The second OP is especially interesting, as you can hear the Japanese voices of the actors. First Meg, then Jo, Beth and last Amy (The voice actor of Amy also did Shampoo in Ranma1/2 and Jiji in Kiki's Delivery service). This song was also sung twice inside the series and in the German dub they kept the original Japanese melody and just changed the lyrics. (Don't know for the other countries).

USA:
Unfortunately the sound quality of the song isn't the best and I could understand only parts of the lyrics. If you can help me out, email me :-)
Btw: You can listen to the american voices of the main characters at Ben's homepage

Other countries:
I don't have songs from other countries. PLEASE contact me of you have another song on tape, video or CD.
