It’s almost April and one thing I am looking forward to enormously is Rilakkuma’s first TV show on Netflix!
Here’s the latest official trailer, which I have watched far too many times. Unlike the Aggretsuko anime, this has also has an English voice cast so you won’t need to use subtitles, though I hope they offer the Japanese version too.
Rilakkuma and Kaoru will tell the story of how Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma came to live in the home of Kaoru – an office worker with a boring life – and her pet chick Kiiroitori. It looks like their adventures will be very low key and relaxing – and totally adorable, due to the stop motion animation.
As well as the trailer, San-X have shared some behind the scenes photos of the animation process. I can’t get over all the details – the characters look so cute and fuzzy and their home so cosy.
Rilakkuma and Kaoru will be available to watch on Netflix worldwide from April 19th.
