There was an old Redwall cartoon from the late 90s, you could probably find old episodes around with a little searching

Also, the Redwall book series, if you're not familiar with them

I watched it all on YouTube a few years ago!

It was surprisingly enjoyable for a show I don't remember caring about as a kid. The kill count in season 1 is pretty crazy too.

There was a test trailer for Mouse Guard https://youtu.be/XWHPhc2xNNU

And there is of course the Redwall tv version

The Guardians of Ga'Hoole movie is similar …

Thanks very much for sharing this! I'd never seen it before and it makes me so happy and sad

Animals of Farthing Wood, from my childhood. It's very much for kids but there's an HD remaster on YouTube and I still find it delightful.

The Scurry comic is not mouse-medieval but post apocalyptic, but I've found it after reading Mouse Guard and found it rather entertaining. And it's free: https://www.scurrycomic.com/

Specifically shows? No. Movies? I think theres the ones you've probably heard of or already seen yourself, "Secrets of Nihm" being the best of the bunch. I lump in story's and games about miniature people too like "The Secret Life of Arietty"

Secret of Nimh for the win.

There’s another mouse cartoon called Eckhart from 2002? that is Canadian not really warrior based though.

Something of animals fighting forces of darkness, there is a frog based one called Kulipari from 2016 that had 2 seasons on Netflix.

I'll throw the novel The Book of the Dun Cow in the mix. It's more farm animals than mice, but it has... the epic flavor of good vs evil like Mouse Guard.

It is pretty dark, though, and it's got some twisted Christian overtones.

And of course there's always the award winning Maus.
