The official website for the Mr. Osomatsu anime franchise revealed the main visual, full trailer, and opening theme song of the second new film, Osomatsu-san: Tamashii no Takoyaki Party to Densetsu no Otomari-kai (Mr. Osomatsu: The Soul's Takoyaki Party and the Legendary Sleepover Party), on Tuesday. The trailer previews the opening theme song "Zenryoku Batankyū Metal Arrangement" by AŌP. The group performed "Zenryoku Batankyū" as the second opening theme song of the Mr. Osomatsu television anime's first season.
The anime film will premiere nationwide in Japan on July 21, and will be screened for a limited time. The up-and-coming four-member band DeNeel (with the sextuplets' cast) will perform the film's ending theme song "No Plan."
The Mr. Osomatsu anime franchise announced in June 2021 that it will get two new anime films with limited theater screenings in Japan in 2022 and 2023. The first new film, Osomatsu-san ~Hipipo-Zoku to Kagayaku Kajitsu~, premiered in Japan in July 2022.
The Mr. Osomatsu television anime is inspired by Fujio Akatsuka's original Osomatsu-kun manga and "high tension comedy" TV anime, which centers on the Matsuno household with six naughty and mischievous sons (who are sextuplets). All of the sextuplets, including the eldest Osomatsu, are all in love with the same girl, Totoko. The original Osomatsu-kun series followed the family when the sons were 10 years old. Mr. Osomatsu re-imagines the original manga and TV anime with the sextuplets as adults.
The franchise also includes three anime seasons, an earlier anime film, various anime shorts, and a live-action film.
