Differences

 * Huey, Dewey and Louie never appeared in the 1951 anime, this was probably because Walt Disney was already working on Mickey Mouse Club and the three duck siblings weren't added until later in the series.
 * In the 1987 anime, Minnie Mouse was dead and Mickey lived with his mother.
 * In the 1987 anime, Mickey does not return to Japan, this was probably because the 1987 version was not successful (there was going to be a second season where Mickey does return, but the show was not good enough).
