3	''The New Adventures of Peter Pan'' is a 2013 [[AllCGICartoon CGI cartoon]] by DQ Entertainment, the same company that helped produce ''WesternAnimation/CaspersScareSchool'' and ''WesternAnimation/IronManArmoredAdventures'' It is produced by Tapaas Charavarti and directed by Augusto Zanovello.

5	The latest addition to the long list of ''Literature/PeterPan'' adaptations, ''The New Adventures of Peter Pan'' is the first television show to feature the day to day adventures of Peter, the Darlings, the Lost Kids and the Pirates since ''WesternAnimation/PeterPanAndThePirates'' aired over 20 years ago.
6
7	Set in the 21st Century, the story revolves around a more modern incarnation of the Darling family (smart phones and laptops both make appearances in the London segments). The story alternates between modern London and the ageless Neverland, and the Darlings travelling back and forth between the two.
8
9	In many ways, the show can be seen as a more lighthearted spiritual successor to Fox's ''Peter Pan'', with both focusing on the day to day interactions and adventures of the cast as opposed to retelling the Peter Pan story or trying to serve as an origin story.

At the end of the episode when Wendy goes to apologise to Peter, he good-naturedly pushes her attempt aside to point out the fact that she was simply trying to protect her brothers.
22	* CanonForeigner:

27	%%* DirtyCoward: Hook.
28	%%* EasyAmnesia: Hook in "Lost Hook".
29	* EnemyMine: In "The Discord Stone", all the anger and resentment stored within the Discord Stone is released and enters Peter, causing Neverland to fall apart.

36	* NotGrowingUpSucks: Peter can't have a birthday, or a birthday party, or he will grow up.
37	%%* OffscreenTeleportation: Asbjorn to Hook in "Treasure Hunt".
38	* OlderThanTheyLook: Peter, confirmed to be this multiple times by the fact that Wendy has several different versions of the "Peter Pan" stories, the statue of him shown in "The Wild Melodies", and in the episode "Origins" it's revealed that Peter has been befriending multiple generations of the Darling family for over a century by the Darling children's grandmother (Also called Wendy) and the fact that their Great-Great-Grandmother is the original Wendy Darling herself.

40	* Really700YearsOld: Peter is confirmed to be this by the statue of him in Kensington Gardens shown in the episode "The Wild Melodies".
41	* RecursiveCanon: Wendy is shown to have a copy of the "Peter Pan" book and the show features the statue of him in the Kensington Gardens in the episode "The Wild Melodies", the episode "Origins" reveals that the Darling children shown in the show are the descendants of the original Wendy Darling, giving off the impression that just like ''Film/{{Hook}}'', the implication given is that J.M. Barrie's play and eventual novel is a sensationalized account of true events.
42	* SettingUpdate: As mentioned above, the real world portions are set in 21st Century London. Also averted by the fact that Wendy, John and Michael aren't the actual Wendy, John and Michael shown in the "Peter Pan" stories; they're actually the original Wendy Darling's descendants, which is a clever nod to the original book.
43	* ShipTease: Peter and Wendy; he even kisses her on the cheek (Much to Tinkerbell's dismay) in the episode "Global Warming" before being dragged out the window by Tinkerbell.
