About Anpanman: The Adventure of Happie

Anpanman: The Adventure of Happie (Sore Ike! Anpanman: Happy no Daibouken) blends comedy and kids by TMS Entertainment (2005). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. At its core: Happy, a young resident of Dodeka Tree, is always bullied and called weak. He seeks out his idol Anpanman and asks him to teach him and help him become capable.

Further in, when Anpanman spends his days helping people in need rather than fighting bad guys, Happy loses his faith in him. This offers Baikinman an opportunity to step in and wreak havoc with Dr. Hiyari's new creation, a gluttonous maggot Gringa.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with TMS Entertainment, which means the visual identity of Anpanman: The Adventure of Happie follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on comedy, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. With a 6.1/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Released in 2005, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
