I'm disappointed that MAPPA hasn't announced a new Tama and Friends anime. That franchise has been a guilty pleasure of mine as of late thanks to Uchi Tama? back in 2020, but I ended up liking the 90's series best (the exceptions those infamous Festival Music or Hiroshima episodes, they went too far in my opinion). Hopefully a sequel to that series in which Takeshi is in middle school is announced this year in honor of the franchise's 40th anniversary.

If you want to be disappointed/mad at anyone for not continuing the franchise, blame Sony/Aniplex, not MAPPA.

Them too. Smile But at the end of the day, what’s important is continue to support other great work from these companies. Demon Slayer especially, can’t wait for the new season to come out.

If you're curious, MAPPA has an event in May. Maybe, they'll announce a new Tama and Friends or not.

Interesting. If one is ever announced at either that event or Aniplex Online Fest, they'd better get ClariS to do the opening theme. I love their opening themes, especially their most recent one for Lycoris Recoil. Speaking of which, I wonder if they'll talk about season 2 this year.

You're barking at the wrong tree. It's Aniplex you should ask, not their subsidiary.

True that.. it would be up to Aniplex and it's committee in the end.

I sill think Aniplex had some great stuff coming out of AnimeJapan this year, and I can't wait for the new Rurouni Kenshin coming out, as well as the new season of Demon Slayer. Although I do hope there's more info about some of their IP this year. More specifically (like I said) Tama and Friends since that franchise is turning 40 this year, as well as more info on the upcoming Madoka Magica movie.
