Review

Popeye The Sailor is one of the legendary cartoon series. The story focuses on the character of the sailor named Popeye. The story always has the same concept, such as: Olive Oyl is bullied by Brutus/Bluto, Olive Oyl then asks Popeye for help. Popeye immediately ate the spinach in the can. Popeye then becomes strong and beats Brutus/Bluto. Popeye is one of the animations that has accompanied my childhood.
