Alfred J. Kwak is a Dutch-German-Japanese anime television series based on a Dutch theater show by Herman van Veen and was co-produced by VARA, Telecable Benelux B.V., ZDF, and TV Tokyo and first shown in 1989. It consists of 52 episodes and follows the adventures of a little yellow duck named Alfred who is raised by his "uncle", a mole named Henk, after a tragedy strikes his parents and siblings.

All of the episodes received an English dub and were aired in the UK, and most can currently be found online on sites such as YouTube and Dailymotion. However, two episodes, 17 - "Visitors From Outer Space" and 33 - "Gunfight At Tombstone" , are currently missing in their English dubs. They can be found in other dubs, however, including the original Dutch versions, as well as German, Finnish, and Spanish.

On January 9th, 2019, Youtube user "Casseopaya" uploaded all 52 episodes of the show in Chinese/Mandarian languaged that not only showed the Japanese theme song. But it also included the Japanese version of "Zo Vrolijk". While most of the show was dubbed in Mandarian, some music from the original Japanese dub still remains intact. Such as the final episode showing the entire supporting cast singing the Japanese version of "Spetter Pieter Pater".
