Twelve Months (Sekai Meisaku Douwa: Mori wa Ikiteiru) is a 1980 fantasy anime movie by Toei Animation in partnership with Soyuzmultfilm.Twelve Months is the story of an orphaned girl named Anya. When a spoiled Queen, who is also orphaned, sees a picture of a galanthus flower (snowdrop), she immediately wants one. However, the galanthus only blooms in spring, in the month of April. It is New Year's Eve and there was no way that such a flower can be found in the middle of the winter. The Queen offers a basket of gold to anyone who can bring her a bag of galanthus and Anya's cruel guardian sends her out in a blizzard to find some. There she is saved from freezing to death by twelve spirits, each representing one month of the year, who entrust her with a precious secret.The film was based on a children's book which was itself based on an old European fairytale. | |

Adaptational Angst Upgrade | |
| Twelve Months / int_730d3664 | comment |
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Anya is much more traumatized by her life than her counterpart from the play. Notably, in her first scene, when she is gathering tinder in the forest, she is downcast and on the verge of tears, while in the play she happily watches the forest animals. | |

Promoted to Love Interest | |
| Twelve Months / int_8605f0c0 | comment |
Promoted to Love Interest: Inverted. The clearly romantic relationship between April and the girl from the play gets reduced to a few moments of Ship Tease. He is more protective of her than the rest of the Months but doesn't indicate he feels anything but Big Brother Instinct towards her, and she calls him "brother". | |

Adaptational Seriousness | |
| Twelve Months / int_9d725c18 | comment |
Adaptational Seriousness: The Months are stern, serious and quiet (except for a single moment when they burst out laughing at the idea of snowdrops in winter), a big change from the play's cheerful and friendly characters who sing a merry song. | |

Adaptational Wimp: The professor is a lot more timid than in the play. He barely dares to speak in the Queen's presence, while his counterpart in the play even argues with her and sometimes actually manages to convince her to do something right. | |
