Petit Eva's Kanaban Streams Yanyan Machiko Anime
posted on by Egan Loo
Kanaban Graphics, the computer animation studio best known for the Usavich cult comedy television series and the Petit Eva - Evangelion@School shorts, has begun streaming the first 150-second episode of its new Yanyan Machiko anime series on its website and on YouTube Friday. The studio plans to stream every episode for free.
The slapstick comedy revolves around a female lamb named Machiko, the former biker-gang-member-turned-fishmonger Toshio, the trash collector Aguri, and the other colorful inhabitants of a fanciful version of the Champs Elysees shopping district.
Kanaban's Usavich anime became a hit on MTV Japan, and the second and third seasons sold 30,000 and 29,000 DVD sets, respectively, in this past year alone.
