Cleanliness is everything. You’ve probably heard of the butterfly effect, a hypothetical phenomenon in which a crushed butterfly triggers a hurricane on the other side of the Earth. Meat and the Microbus has a similar situation. Who would have thought that an apple could cause such a serious illness? And all because of non-compliance with elementary hygiene.
This is almost the only Soviet cartoon in which events take place inside the human body. Seeing blood cells and living phagocytes is quite interesting. However, if we compare with a similar series from "Smesharikov: PIN-code", we find obvious shortcomings. More precisely, the drawback is one: “Mitya and the microbus” is created using puppet animation. As a consequence, painful animation of a large number of characters in one frame, so the events lack the scale. Judging by the characters, there are a huge number of microbes, whole troops, but we see from the strength of twenty pieces. One of them is quite impressive, but still something is wrong. The scenery of the veins and arteries (apparently, it was in them that the main character turned out to be) are also strange. No, dolls were definitely not the best solution of the authors.
Apart from the visual “jambs”, the cartoon is not bad and even useful, especially in the XXI century, when a coronavirus pandemic broke out due to non-compliance with sanitary standards, for the first time in several centuries. Miti’s verse form of speech and microbes give events an almost legendary sweep. In a sense, it is: within us, the immune system often struggles with harmful viruses and bacteria, and we are not even aware of it. In such cartoons as "Mitya and the microbus" we need more often than usual.
The moral is obvious: before you eat something, you need to wash it. Especially if it was lying on the ground and it is not known who crawled on this food.
