Engimon English Sub & Dub

About Engimon

Engimon (えんぎもん) blends comedy by Studio Nanahoshi (2018). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. At its core: In the children's room of the Amanogawa household in the neighborhood of Shichifukujin, there are five Engimon: Haruo (a papier-mache dog), Kin-chan (a goldfish paper balloon), Hebikura (a bamboo snake). They are always watching over the siblings of the household, Himi and Yamato.

As things develop, one day, an Engimon from somewhere else appears, and Himi leaves the house to chase it. Haruo and his allies come alive, much to Yamato's surprise, and together they go to rescue Himi.

With comedy at the core, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Yamato Amanogawa (Ayaka Asai) and Mikoto Amanogawa (Takuma Suzuki) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. The run is 1 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.

Production & Appeal

Studio Nanahoshi is the studio behind Engimon, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. The comedy focus matters here: timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. With a 4.7/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. On the casting side, Ayaka Asai voicing Yamato Amanogawa gives the lead role a recognizable voice. It aired in 2018, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
