Maya the Bee (Mitsubachi Maya no Bouken)
Also known as: みつばちマーヤの冒険
Maya, a curious newborn honeybee, bristles against the hive's rigid rules, driven by a fierce need for independence that sets her apart from her sisters. When she ventures beyond the familiar honeycomb to find a remote flower garden, her friend Willy pursues her into the wilderness. Through encounters with countless insects and the natural world's both wondrous and treacherous sides, the two companions grow from reckless adventurers into wise and resilient bees.
