Barbapapa (English, 1990)

It was released on five DVDs and VHSes by Aniplex (a subsidiary company of Sony Music Entertainment) in 2001 in Japan, in order to teach Japanese children English. These sets also include a Japanese and French audio track.

The exact date of which the DVDs and VHSes that featured the dub were released is unknown, however a few sources specify different dates; one of them being January 24, 2001 and another being June 20, 2001. They appear to have been released again on November 23, 2005.

Not much is known about this dub other than how it appears to have used a limited cast of around 3-4 people. The actors in question also often exchange which characters they play at random episodes. It is theorized to have been dubbed in its country of release, Japan. This dub has been criticized by fans of the show for being "cheapily produced". All of the songs were not dubbed and were left instrumental. Only the first season was dubbed.
