I'm not surprised tbh. Hergé was a far-right, fascist anti-communist. His excuse later for the animal cruelty and racism of the congo cartoons was that he, supposedly like all europeans at the time, just thought of africans as 'big children'.
I actually think I might have misremembered because when I just did a search the internet is not telling me that the animation was ever made.
I'm pretty sure that a cartoon was made of it at some point and that I saw it more than once on television.
This shit got me all :alex-aware:
Yh it became a famous belgian cartoon. Like its sickening I thought I was losing my mind when I saw it come on tv in a cafe one day.
Tintin getting cartoons is no surprise, that they'd adapt the fucking Congo story is
