anastasia:

rasputin doing evil magic causes the october revolution
the main character is a royal family member
bolsheviks are depicted as mindless zombies under rasputin's evil spell
royals are depicted as sympathetic benevolent autocrats who never ever encouraged antisemetic pogroms
Lenin not mentioned but originally supposed to be the villain insted of Rasputin
wildly ahistorical even for a cartoon
has a few numbers, but mostly not a musical
the tsar is still in power october 1917 even though he abdicated months earlier
the tsar gets killed in october 1917 even though he was killed in 1918

this is unsatisfactory
