Ojarumaru Anime Overview

Before I get started with this overview, I want to clear up a common misconception I’ve noticed in some English sources about Ojarumaru. The anime is an original production– not an adaptation of a pre-existing manga. While there are some manga versions, these were created to accompany the anime rather than serve as its source material. For example, Kanako Temaru’s manga version ran in the Ciao magazine from the November 1998 issue until the September 2001 issue. Some sources mistakenly claim the serialization began in 1993, but that’s incorrect. 

Ojarumaru was created by manga artist Rin Inumaru (her real name was Noriko Yamazaki) and produced by NHK and NHK Enterprises. Gallop (Kiteretsu Daihyakka, Nurse Angel Ririka, KochiKame, etc,) is the primary animation studio. Inumaru oversaw the original story for the first 4 series and later served as an advisor from the 5th to the 9th. Little is known about what directly influenced its creation, but it’s possible that an NHK executive discovered her early work and approached her about creating an anime series for them. Before Ojarumaru, Inumaru had worked on manga (Yubikiri Genman and Nandemo Tsukame), essays (Yakisobapan no Shisou), and picture books (Kaerukaba: Boku wa Oku-san ga Sukide Sukide Tamaranai), though details about her career remain limited. 

Sadly, she passed away in September 2006. Reports indicate that she fell from the roof of her 14-story apartment and was pronounced dead at the hospital. She left a note addressed to her mother, expressing feelings of inadequacy about her work. An anonymous acquaintance suggested that ongoing stress related to a fluctuating health condition may have contributed to her passing.

Ojarumaru premiered on NHK Educational TV (NHK E) on October 5, 1998. Every year, a batch of 60-90 episodes airs daily, bringing the total to 2,100+ episodes split up into 28 series with more in production. This makes it NHK’s second longest-running anime, behind Nintama Rantaro. The show follows a structured broadcast pattern: new episodes air from April to June and October to December, while reruns take place from June to September and December to March. Instead of following the annual theatrical movies trend common in long-running kids anime (Doraemon, Crayon Shin-chan, Soreike! Anpanman, Shimajiro, etc.), made-for-TV specials air every few years, notably during a milestone anniversary. The latest one, a collaboration between Ojarumaru and the live-action Taiga drama Hikaru Kimi e entitled "Heian-chou Mattari Holiday" (ヘイアンチョウまったりホリデイ, "The Relaxing Heian-chou Holiday"), aired in October 2024. A movie, Eiga Ojarumaru: Yakusoku no Natsu Ojaru to Semira, was released in July 2000, but it’s rarely publicized nowadays. I’ll save details of the movie for another post at a later time. 

Unlike some other long-running kids’ anime such as Anpanman, Shin-chan, and Doraemon which show noticeable differences between older and newer episodes, Ojarumaru has maintained a consistent art style and format for nearly 30 years, with only minor tweaks. The above episode screenshots demonstrate an art evolution over the span of 23 years. It was NHK’s first digital anime production and never underwent a film-to-digital transition, using digital ink and paint animation from the start instead of hand-painted cels. Initially produced in 4:3 aspect ratio, the show switched to 16:9 for the 5th series (aired in 2002), which was earlier than many anime produced during the early 2000s. However, it continued airing in 4:3 until 2007 when NHK E began airing the episodes in native high definition from the 10th series onwards. 

The show follows Ojarumaru Sakanoue (坂ノ上おじゃる丸), a mischievous young prince who grows bored of his rigid aristocratic life in Yousei-kai (妖精界, "Fairy World") of Heian-chou (ヘイアンチョウ, "Heian era"). He resents being forced to study and is especially displeased with his arranged marriage to the bubbly Okame-hime (オカメ姫, "Princess Okame"). One day, while exploring Enma no Mori (エンマの森, "Enma Forest")—named after the strict Enma-daiou (エンマ大王, "Enma the Great/Great King Enma/King Enma")—he stumbles upon a pink scepter that Enma uses to quickly judge the fate of the dead, sending the good to heaven and the bad to a lecture room for reprimands. Ojarumaru steals the scepter but accidentally falls into the Tsuki no Ana (月の穴, "Moon Hole"), a deep, water-filled rock that serves as the gateway to the Mangetsu Road (満月ロード, "Full Moon Road"), transporting him a thousand years into the future (modern-day Japan).

Arriving in Gekkou-chou (月光町, "Moonlight Town"), he is taken in by the Tamura family (田村さん一家)—athletic 8-year-old Kazuma (カズマ), his inventor grandfather Tommy (トミー), nurturing housewife and supermarket part timer Ai (愛), and laid-back salaryman Makoto (マコト). As he adjusts to modern life, Ojarumaru explores the town, meets its quirky citizens, and occasionally encounters figures from the Heian era, such as his devoted firefly caretaker Denbo Sanjuurou (電ボ三十郎). He also frequently clashes with the Kooni Trio (子鬼トリオ, "Little Oni Trio")—Aobei (アオベエ), Kisuke (キスケ), and Akane (アカネ)—who have been sent by their father, Enma, to retrieve the stolen scepter. Though they appear aggressive, the oni are ultimately kind-hearted and only chase Ojarumaru out of deep commitment to their mission.

Each episode runs for 10 minutes, consisting of a 1:30 opening theme, a 7:30 episode segment, and a 1:00 ending theme. The stories typically revolve around Ojarumaru discovering aspects of modern life unfamiliar to him—such as telephones—meeting the residents of Gekkou-chou, confronting his own personal flaws, celebrating holidays, or playing games with his friends. Occasionally, he returns to Heian-chou to visit his parents and his cow friend, Ushi (牛 “Cow”), or to take part in an event from that time period, such as a Hyakunin Isshu karuta competition in 20th series episode 33 "Hyakunin☆Isshu☆Ou" (百人☆一首☆王, "Hyakunin-Isshu-Oh!"; the title is a parody of Yu-Gi-Oh! (遊☆戯☆王)). Some episodes transport the characters into fairy tales such as Momotaro and Journey to the West (10th series episode 63 "Ojagokuu" (おじゃごくう)), parody famous series such as Columbo and Attack on Titan (21st series episode 21 "Shigeki no Maro" (進撃のマロ, "Attack on Me")), or place them in entirely new scenarios, adding variety to the show’s episodic adventures.

Much of the show’s humor comes from the speech quirks of both Heian-chou and modern characters. For example, Ojarumaru’s speech is deliberately archaic—he refers to himself as “maro” (マロ, the katakana spelling of 麿) instead of the more common “watashi” (私) or “boku” (僕) and frequently ends his sentences with “de ojaru” (でおじゃる, a polite copula meaning “to be”). His old-fashioned mannerisms often clash with the modern world, creating comedic misunderstandings. 

Repetition plays a significant role in the show through running gags, music, and character quirks. The nostalgic opening theme, Yomibito, serves as a leitmotif for some of the background music. Many characters, including Ojarumaru, Denbo, the Kooni Trio, Enma-daiou, and Okame-hime, have their own signature themes that play when they enter a scene. The oni trio, when confronting Ojarumaru, always stack into a totem pole-like formation before leaping into a horizontal pose while chanting. Denbo frequently develops crushes on various animals, insects, and even talking objects, while part-timer Ken is perpetually caught in a cycle of being hired and fired from different jobs. Manga artist Sachiyo Usui (うすいさちよ) constantly suffers from writer’s block, and salaryman Kawakami (川上) is always too late to catch his bus to work. 

Most episodes are self-contained, allowing them to be watched in any order. While extensive continuity is rare, there are small story arcs—such as the first 3 episodes establishing Ojarumaru’s new life in Gekkou-chou and his ongoing rivalry with the Kooni Trio. Later episodes occasionally recap key plot points, like Ojarumaru stealing Enma’s scepter, through flashbacks. Although the show is designed for newcomers to jump in at any point, it does assume some familiarity with character dynamics established early on, which may be confusing without prior context. From my experience, there are a few ways to navigate this: tracking down older episodes, reading episode summaries, and gradually learning about the characters and story through repeated viewing.

Series director Akitaro Daichi incorporates a distinct directorial style that has remained consistent throughout Ojarumaru’s long run. His approach emphasizes a relaxed, slice-of-life atmosphere with gentle humor, moments of silence, and a strong focus on character interactions. Transitions are seldom used, with cuts being the primary method of shifting between scenes. A common visual cue for the passage of time is Ukulele-san playing his ukulele. When transitions do appear, they are mostly dissolves, while wipes and clock wipes are exceedingly rare—so much so that one would have to search carefully to find an episode that uses them. These creative choices likely serve to maintain the show’s slow, dialogue-driven pacing and its emphasis on mood over plot progression.

A notable example of Daichi’s style comes from the last scene in 1st series episode 62 "Otome-sensei Hakuchou ni Narikiru" (乙女先生　白鳥になりきる, "Otome-sensei Completely Becomes a Swan"), where ballet dancer Otome-sensei (乙女先生) forgets how to dance after trying to understand a swan’s feelings by “not thinking about anything.” The production staff debated how Ojarumaru and the others should react to her realization, ultimately deciding on a complete lack of response. This absence of reaction serves as the punchline itself rather than relying on exaggerated expressions or dramatic music cues. 

When Daichi handles both the screenplay and storyboard for an episode, his distinctive style becomes more pronounced, making these episodes feel like “special installments”. His direction often plays with tone, pacing, and animation style in unique ways. For example, 12th series episode 1, "Kettou Gekkou ga Hara" (決とう 月光が原, "Duel at Gekkou ga Hara"), presents a “dramatic showdown” between Ojarumaru and the Kooni Trio, complete with tall grass swaying in the wind. The 19th series’ 1st and 65th episodes, "Ojaru 17" (おじゃる17) and "Ojaru 17 VS 5 Miyabi na Kettou" (おじゃる17VS5 ミヤビな決とう, "Ojaru 17 VS 5: The Elegant Duel")–guest starring the mysterious teenage Ojaru 17–stand out with slightly faster pacing, exaggerated facial expressions, and even sakuga-esque moments, adding an extra layer of energy. On the other hand, 20th series episode 1 "Maro to Kazuma no 20-nen" (マロとカズマの20年, "Me and Kazuma's 20 Years") takes a quieter, nostalgic, and heartfelt approach, depicting Ojarumaru getting upset over Kazuma being too busy for him and they later make up. 

Another highlight is the music. Composer Harukichi Yamamoto’s score covers a wide range of moods, from relaxing and upbeat to suspenseful and mystical. His compositions are highly memorable, with many pieces from the show's 1998 debut still used in newer episodes, reinforcing their timeless quality. While several soundtrack CDs have been released, they only feature the most commonly used tracks, with the last one released in 2006. This means any music composed afterward remains unreleased on CD. Additionally, none of the full background music is officially available for streaming on platforms like YouTube, Spotify, or iTunes. As a result, fans seeking specific tracks not included on the CDs would have to resort to using software to isolate the music from dialogue.

Despite its long-running popularity in Japan, Ojarumaru has struggled to establish itself internationally. While some episodes have aired in parts of Asia and Europe–including Hong Kong (Fǎn Dòu Xiǎo Wángzǐ 反斗小王子 and Xié Liú Wán Wángzǐ 邪留丸王子), Italy (Mack, ma che principe sei?), Spain (El principe Mackaroo), the Philippines (Prince Mackaroo)–as well as the Middle East (Faris Alhakaya فارس الحكايا), all international dubs have since been discontinued. The show has maintained a small cult following in certain regions, particularly in Hong Kong (where the Cantonese dubs remain widely circulated among fans and has been released on VCD), India (where the Hindi dub is now considered lost media), and Italy (where it’s remembered for the theme song by Cristina D’Avena, a prolific artist known for performing numerous theme songs for Italian-dubbed anime). 

In the early 2000s, Enoki Films USA acquired the show’s international master license, rebranding it to Prince Mackaroo and Westernizing most of the character names (Denbo to “Cyber-fly”, Kazuma to “Cozmo”, Akane to “Scarlett”, etc.). This version served as the basis for some of the Asian and European dubs. An English dub was commissioned at Ocean Studios in Canada, but it was never released in any English-speaking country, nor are there any clips from it available online. All that’s known about it is that voice actors Saffron Henderson (Scarlett, Amy) and David Kaye (Cyber-fly, Demon King, additional voices) were involved. When Enoki Films USA ceased operations in 2010, the license was transferred to their Japanese headquarters where it has remained since. Years later, WowMax Next and Elastic Media Corporation produced an English dub of Ojarumaru Special: Hinata of the Forgotten Woods, but this too went unreleased with the only known dub staff being voice actor Finnigan Morris. 

While the exact reasons for its international struggles remain unclear, possible factors include cultural differences, language barriers, target audience misalignment, and limited licensing support, as well as the show's format and availability. 

The storylines and humor are deeply rooted in Japanese culture and wordplay. Much of the show's appeal lies in its nostalgic and whimsical depiction of childhood, its seamless blend of Heian-era references with modern settings, and its gentle, dialogue-driven humor. For instance, in 12th series episode 43 “‘Ru’” (「る」) , Ojarumaru speaks without the Japanese “ru” (る) sound, shortening his usual verbal tic “de ojaru” (でおじゃる) into “de oja” (でおじゃ). These elements make it comforting and familiar to Japanese audiences, but can be difficult for international audiences to fully appreciate without cultural context or willingness to turn off preconceived expectations. 

Young Japanese audiences are naturally exposed to the cultural elements in Ojarumaru through their daily lives, making the show more relatable and easier to grasp. They also have access to age-appropriate resources that help them further explore the Heian-era references. In contrast, young audiences outside Japan—especially in English-speaking countries like the US—don’t encounter Japanese culture and history in the same way. Since these elements are not part of their everyday experiences, they may find them harder to understand, particularly if their parents or guardians are also unfamiliar with them. Additionally, resources for young children on Japanese history and culture are scarce outside Japan. Most available materials are aimed at older audiences or those specifically studying the subject—a demographic less likely to engage with a culturally-specific kids show they never grew up with.

While the show includes some Western references—such as Katapi the snail’s French origins, a batch of 5 episodes themed around London (which aired to coincide with the 2012 London Olympics), Tommy and his friend Mike occasionally speaking English, and Okorinbou the komainu falling in love with a foreigner named Jessica in 1st series episode 72 "Okorinbou ni Hanataba o" (オコリン坊に花束を, "Flowers for Okorinbou")—these elements serve more to romanticize the Western world for Japanese audiences (a common trend in kids anime) rather than to make the show more globally accessible.

As a public broadcaster, NHK operates under a unique funding model, primarily relying on mandatory license fees paid by residents in Japan with a television subscription, regardless of whether they watch NHK programs or not. This financial structure allows Ojarumaru to continue production without the need for extensive commercialization, which is why merchandise for the show is now sparingly produced. In its early years (1998-2007), the show saw more commercialization through merchandise and promotions, but this gradually declined over time. 

Since international TV networks (or at least ones in the United States) tend to prioritize kids programming with strong commercial potential—such as toy and video game tie-ins—Ojarumaru's historical, slow-paced, and whimsical tone may not have aligned with their market interests. As a result, many likely opted to pass on the show or discontinue it midway, instead favoring series with broader global appeal such as Doraemon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, PreCure, and Jewelpet. Unlike Pokémon or Yu-Gi-Oh!, which built long-term merchandising empires around trading cards and toys, Ojarumaru’s merchandising has been more modest, focusing primarily on books, soundtrack CDs, and small-scale collectibles like gashapon. 

Ojarumaru has never had a strong toyetic component to sustain international merchandising success. While other franchises feature collectible items, battle-ready characters or dedicated rescue teams, Ojarumaru’s closest equivalent—the Gekkou-chou Chicchai Mono Club (月光町ちっちゃいものクラブ "Gekkou-chou Tiny Things Club")—consists of Ojarumaru, Denbo, turtle sisters Kame (亀田カメ) and Tome Kameda (亀田トメ), Katapii (カタピー), Hokutoshichisei no Kimiko (北斗七星の公子) the hamster, and Binbougami (貧乏神, "God of Poverty"). While they occasionally embark on “rescue missions”, these are far more low-stakes and gentle compared to the high-energy action of Rescue Heroes or Paw Patrol.

Although a few video games were released in Japan during the early years—including a board game (Ojarumaru: Tsukiyo ga Ike no Takaramono), a mini-game compilation (Ojarumaru 〜Mangan Jinja no Ennichi de ojaru!〜), a 2D platformer (Ojarumaru: Gekkou-chou Sanpo de ojaru), and edutainment games (Ojarumaru, Typing Ojarumaru)—they primarily catered to existing fans rather than serving as an introduction to new audiences. Most of these genres generally don’t have the same standalone appeal or commercial longevity as action-adventure, mascot platformer, RPG, or collectible-based games that drive international success. Without a strong competitive, replayable element or a core gameplay hook to engage wider audiences, these games were less likely to generate mainstream success outside of Japan. As a result, they didn’t serve as an effective gateway for Ojarumaru to expand internationally the way other anime-based game franchises have.

While Ojarumaru could potentially stream on niche platforms like Crunchyroll or RetroCrush, or stream for free on YouTube or Tubi, there may be contractual barriers preventing its availability. Since the show has been running since 1998, the media landscape has changed significantly over the years, and it may still be bound by old contractual agreements that don’t account for international streaming, or Enoki Films/NHK may require a full licensing deal rather than just streaming rights. In some cases, licensors prefer to sell all rights to a single company rather than splitting them among multiple parties. Managing different rights across different companies within a single territory can be complex, and licensors may not want to risk missing larger opportunities by leaving certain rights unused. Additionally, the user base of niche platforms generally skews older and overlooks retro kids anime unless it’s something they grew up with (Pokémon, Beyblade), ties into a modern reboot (the Osomatsu-kun 1988 series was licensed by Discotek Media in response to the international popularity of Mr. Osomatsu) or well-known property (Sonic X being based on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise), or has clear older-audience appeal (Cardcaptor Sakura, PreCure).

Although Ojarumaru has several home media and streaming releases in Japan, only a fraction of the show has been made accessible—around 466 episodes on VHS, 160 episodes on DVD and even fewer for streaming. NHK limits the availability of past content to encourage domestic viewers to tune in live or catch up through limited-time video playback streams on NHK Plus and NHK On Demand. This keeps the focus on newer episodes rather than capitalizing on nostalgia through extensive home media and streaming releases.

In Japan, newer episodes are readily available on NHK platforms (NHK E, NHK Plus, and NHK On Demand), while older episodes can be found on third-party services like U-Next and Hulu Japan. However, international audiences don’t have this luxury of accessing the show. These platforms are geo-blocked outside of Japan, requiring workarounds for “unofficial access” to temporarily-available official content. The lack of a modern release on official streaming platforms or networks internationally further widens the gap in accessibility. A small handful of episodes—mainly from discontinued international dubs—have been uploaded by fans online, but these are subject to takedowns. Your best bet for permanent accessibility is the home media releases. 

That’s not to say Ojarumaru will never see further global expansion. It would require passionate licensors and distributors—or even NHK—who are committed to making it happen and have the necessary time and resources to do so. 

For an English localization, the Heian-era characters could speak in Shakespearean English to emphasize the comedic contrast between ancient and modern speech. Some of the more sincere dialogue and Japanese-based puns could be rewritten to sound witty and natural in English. Not all 2,100+ episodes would need localization; depending on how the episodes are packaged and how much flexibility Enoki Films/NHK allows licensees, a curated selection from various years could highlight the show’s evolution or focus on episodes with fewer culturally-specific elements.

A strong candidate for localization is 9th series episode 1 "Ashita Koso" (あしたこそ, "Tomorrow For Sure"), where the Kooni Trio attempt to use the Full Moon Road to repeatedly travel forward in time and gather their future selves, forming a larger group to intimidate Ojarumaru into giving them the scepter—only for their plan to go comically wrong. This episode features slightly faster pacing and a greater use of the show’s suspenseful background music, which is otherwise used sparingly. Episodes written and storyboarded by Akitaro Daichi, such as the Ojaru 17 episodes, would also be excellent choices.

The show’s popularity in Japan can be attributed to several factors: the rarity of an aristocratic Heian-era main character in animation (a quick Google search for "de ojaru" will bring up the show among the top results, its distinctly Japanese humor, and nostalgia. Since its debut, Ojarumaru has aired daily in the mornings and/or early evenings as part of NHK E’s children’s programming lineup. For many years, it held a consistent 6:00 PM timeslot, directly preceding Nintama Rantaro at 6:10 PM, until a schedule shift in 2022 (6:40 AM/5:00 PM; now airs at 8:25 AM as of April 2025). The show’s association with Nintama Rantaro was even playfully acknowledged in its 24th series ending theme, "Oja Fuwa Babyun" (おじゃフワバビュン), which makes a lighthearted joke about the latter following Ojarumaru in the programming block. While the show enjoys a broad demographic appeal, its whimsical tone, emphasis on stand-alone stories, and frequent repetition over plot progression make it particularly popular among younger audiences.

Ojarumaru is more than just an entertainment program–it fulfills a public service role. NHK has a mandate to provide educational and culturally-relevant content, especially for kids. Ojarumaru aligns with this mission through its gentle humor, focus on empathy and curiosity, and frequent references to traditional Japanese culture. Its consistent broadcast slot and non-commercial role contribute to a sense of routine and stability for viewers, which may explain its longevity despite the absence of a major toy or merchandise push and the rarity of most older episodes. It also helps explain the lack of an aggressive international expansion–since the show is produced with public good in mind, commercial considerations like global franchising may not be a top priority for NHK. 

With the 30th anniversary approaching in 2027, it makes me wonder what NHK will do to commemorate such a milestone. For the 20th anniversary in 2017, they made 19 older episodes (handpicked by Akitaro Daichi) available for streaming and collaborated with Skip City for a limited-time exhibition. The possibilities for 2027 are endless—perhaps they will re-release more rare episodes from their archives via streaming or home media.

The Great Kanto Earthquake that struck Japan in 1923 laid bare the need for a nationwide information system to keep citizens safe. Two years later, stations in three cities — Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya — began the country’s first radio broadcasts and, a year later, would come together to form the first incarnation of NHK.

The country’s public-service broadcaster has transformed with the times, but its remit to serve its citizens with trustworthy, reliable information remains at the heart of the organisation, Nobuo Inaba, its president, tells World Screen Weekly in a wide-ranging interview: https://worldscreen.com/nhks-nobuo-inaba-2025/

Internationally, NHK is delivering its content via the channel NHK WORLD-JAPAN, while NHK Enterprises is bringing a diverse slate of drama, documentaries, entertainment and kids’ fare to broadcasters and platforms worldwide. Driving gains at its commercial arm and bolstering co-productions are key mandates for the pubcaster as it navigates an evolving ecosystem, alongside continued R&D into elevating the viewing experience, all while retaining the trust of audiences.

This is a compendium of four short films with English subtitles.

Sachio Yoshioka is the fifth-generation head of the Somenotsukasa Yoshioka dye workshop in Fushimi, southern Kyoto. When he succeeded to the family business in 1988, he abandoned the use of synthetic colours in favour of dyeing solely with plants and other natural materials. 30 years on, the workshop produces an extensive range of extremely beautiful colours.

Mr Yoshioka generously made two gifts of naturally dyed textile and paper samples to the V&A in 2016 and 2017. The process of creating these samples was recorded for a documentary broadcast in Japan in May 2017. The programme also explored the background to Mr Yoshioka’s passion for natural dyeing and his long-standing quest to revive historical colours whose methods of making have been forgotten.

The original footage from which the films have been compiled was taken using state-of-the-art 8K UHD (Ultra High Definition) technology developed by NHK Enterprises, Inc.The sequence of running is as follows:

In Search of Forgotten Colours - 5’15”

Beni Red (safflower; carthamus tinctorius) - 4’39”

Paper Flowers and the Omizutori Ceremony - 3’15”

Murasaki Purple (purple gromwell; lithospermum erythrorhizon) - 4’17”

1st Heist - Shanghai

Lupin takes a tumble. Fujiko turns over a new leaf. Zenigata teams up.  

"Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Fujiko Mine for NHK World-Japan coming at you live from Shanghai, China."

In Shanghai’s premiere landmark, the "Oriental Pearl" TV tower, a priceless piece of moon rock is changing hands between the Chinese National Space Agency and Lockwood Enterprises, the business of a reclusive billionaire owner.

Overview of the Tower

Inspector Zenigata is on the case: Lupin has sent a calling card and is planning to steal the expensive piece.

Mr. Zhou tells Zenigata that security is top-notch at the event. All guests and staff have been screened preemptively. And besides: The Elevators are monitored and the only way in and out.

Zenigata isn't so sure.

"If no-one gets in, that means he's already here!"

Because a famous Chinese Astronaut is at the Event to give the piece of moon rock to the representative of Lockheart Enterprises, Zenigata gets taken for a ride as Mr. Zhou reveals that all waiters are dressed head-to-toe in Astronaut Suits! Panicking, Zenigata starts searching through all the waiters.

However, Lupin has planned ahead for this: 

Jigen infiltrates the staff as an elevator operator and cuts the wires in the elevator, basically trapping everyone up in the TV tower. Goemon has infiltrated the staff as a sushi chef and has a bit where the sushi chef doesn't care that he is a thief- he wants him to stay because he's never seen anyone work so precisely with a knife.

Left: First concept of Bellhop Jigen; Right: "Chef" Goemon transports precious cargo.

Zenigata spots Fujiko and tries to make her talk: Where is Lupin? What's he planning? Fujiko says that she doesn't know. She explains to have changed her ways and now works as a reporter. While Zenigata interrogates Fujiko, her assistant reporter, Mariya Isshiki, slips away from the conversation.

Key Art: Mariya Isshiki, originally from Tokyo Crisis

Maria seems to have psychic powers and foresees that the CEO of Lockwood Enterprises, a mysterious man that no-one has any photos of, will be there. Fujiko is interested in the identity of this man as well. Using her powers to sneak past the guards and up the Elevator to the Spaceflight exhibit, she witnesses money exchange hands- but Mr. Lockwood seems to have changed his mind and is not present. The tall man in a well-fitting suit that's come as a representative instead triggers a flash of strange memories in her- and she is caught and thrown out.

Meanwhile-

Lupin is hiding out in a meal-cart and rigged some of the astronauts suits to dispense tear gas when opened- he jumps out when Zenigata is busy interrogating Fujiko, steals the moon rock and escapes with his gang, running off the balcony of the TV tower- revealing a wingsuits underneath their disguises, they land on the ferry the goes across the river from the TV tower's side and the city center. 

Zenigata and his men want to follow- but of course, Jigen had cut the power to the elevator. When the police arrive to capture the criminals trapped on the ferry, Lupin and gang manage to slip out because they already hid disguises under some seats on the ferry in preparation for the heist. 

They lose the police officers in the subway system. 

An overhead view of the place. The ferry is marked red, and Lupin's escape is marked in blue.

After Zenigata fails to catch Lupin- again- and embarrasses himself in front of the world’s richest, he is assigned Maria to improve his PR. Maria has no choice but to take the job too since she almost got fired for leaving the party to look for the mysterious CEO. 

In their hideout somewhere in a small apartment, Lupin reveals that he was challenged by an anonymous source to steal a list of objects to be crowned King of Thieves, going head-to-head with other "wannabe thieves".

Jigen and Goemon are skeptical and want out, but the anonymous source comes through and pays them handsomely. The huge man in the doorframe introduces himself as Mr. Flinch. Goemon and Jigen have a sneaking suspicion that they have seen this guy before somewhere. Flinch warns them that now that they’ve entered the challenge to become king of thieves, they will face the other contestants. Their next target: Chicago, USA.

In the Epilogue, we see what this iteration's Lupin III is like (at least at the start of the series.): a scumbag.

He pickpockets tens of IDs from unsuspecting travelers to let Goemon and Jigen "take a pic" from the pile to use as a fake ID. He flirts with the booking agent to get upgraded to First Class. Only him, of course. Goemon and Jigen are stuck in Economy. While enjoying the company of Stewards and Stewardesses that hand on his every word and a glass of champagne, the plane leaves for America. Little does he know that this attitude isn't going to be enough to survive- let alone become king.

Also, I know I said this series would've been a comic- if it were an animated show, here's this episode's licensed credits music TM.

Key Art: Koichi Zenigata

In this first Episode, we also learn about Zenigata's unique qualifications:

"Like, imagine being the detective in his situation. 

Lupin is such an expert thief that there are literal hundreds of possible plans that he could execute for every target. All you know is that at the beginning, the treasure is there and in the end is gone. 

Especially in a public space like the TV tower. Lupin could be a member of staff. He could be a guest. He could be the manager, or one of the detectives. He could make a grand entrance, poison the food or fill the room with sleeping gas. He could come through the vents, he could already have swapped the treasure for a fake, he could have planned this for months and have married the host’s daughter. Hell, for all you know he could crash a car into the venue and drive right back out. 

All these options must be so overwhelming. 

But then you have Zenigata, who, after years of hunting Lupin, can be more precise in predicting which path Lupin is more likely to take. I personally also think that, despite being in his 50s in this iteration, pops is physically in better shape than Lupin and could take him in a 1-on-1."

'Ojarumaru' 28th Series Trailer Unveiled, Hiromi Go Announced as Ending Theme Artist

NHK announced (1) (2) on Tuesday, March 25, that the Ojarumaru 28th series ending theme, “GO! De ojaru” (GO！でおじゃる), an original song for the anime, will be performed by Hiromi Go. Last week, NHK teased that a "well-known superstar" who performed at the 2024 Kohaku Uta Gassen, an annual live program airing on New Year’s Eve via NHK platforms such as NHK General TV, would be involved.

Go provided a message regarding the ending theme:

“I loved the theme song for 'Ojarumaru' by Saburo Kitajima, so I'm really happy to be in charge of the ending theme this time. 

I tried a new style of music that Hiromi Go hasn't had before. Please enjoy it along with the anime.”

Hiromi Go staff’s official X account posted the newly revealed 28th series key visual featuring Go in the bottom right corner, who will be appearing as himself in the Ojarumaru universe. They also announced that the ending theme will receive its streaming release on Wednesday, April 9.

NHK Anime World’s official X account posted a trailer, narrated by TV personality Neru Nagahama, a fan of Ojarumaru who previously narrated the trailer for the Ojarumaru x Hikaru Kimi e collaboration special, “Heian-chou Mattari Holiday” (ヘイアンチョウまったりホリデイ, "The Relaxing Heian Era Holiday"), which aired in October 2024. The trailer announces the 28th series’ premiere on NHK Educational TV (NHK E) in Japan on Monday, March 31, in a new time slot of 8:25 AM. While featuring clips from the 27th series, it teases upcoming 28th series storylines, including the Little Oni Trio retrieving Enma the Great’s scepter and Ojarumaru returning to the Heian era.

The show previously aired at 6:40 AM and 5:00 PM, with the final episode in that time slot airing on Thursday, March 27. Additionally, NHK Anime World posted a timetable showing the updated broadcast times for their programming starting on March 31, with Ojarumaru’s 8:25-8:35 AM broadcast time appearing near the top.

Ojarumaru is an original kids’ anime series created by Rin Inumaru and produced by NHK and NHK Enterprises. Airing on NHK E since October 1998, the series follows a mischievous 5-year-old prince named Ojarumaru, who accidentally time-warps from the Heian era to modern-day Japan. In Moonlight Town, he embarks on adventures with new friends while evading the Little Oni Trio, who seek to reclaim the scepter he took from Enma the Great.

Neutrino Asymmetry Passes Critical Threshold

Super-Kamiokande detector logo. April 16, 2020 The first official evidence of a key imbalance between neutrinos and antineutrinos provides one of the best clues for why the universe contains something rather than nothing.

Image above: The Super-Kamiokande detector in Japan is 12 stories tall and lined with sensors that can detect radiation generated by passing neutrinos. Ordinarily it is filled with water; this image was taken while it was being refurbished in 2018. Click and drag to explore. Image Credits: Kamioka Observatory, ICRR, The University of Tokyo/NHK Enterprises, Inc. Physicists have detected the strongest evidence yet of a behavioral difference between elementary particles called neutrinos and their mirror-image twins, antineutrinos. The asymmetry could be the key to why so much more matter than antimatter arose during the Big Bang — further explaining why anything at all exists today, since matter and antimatter in equal portions would have mutually annihilated. “This is a hint that there is a large asymmetry between neutrinos and antineutrinos,” said Deborah Harris, a neutrino physicist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Illinois and York University in Canada who was not involved in the work. “It’s a big deal,” she said, since “we’re trying to figure out what process could have tipped the balance in favor of matter over antimatter.” “I am excited because this is the first time we have solid indications,” said Federico Sanchez Nieto of the University of Geneva, a co-spokesperson for the T2K experiment in Japan, which reported the results today in Nature.

Image above: Cutaway view of the Super-Kamiokande detector in Japan. Image Credits: Kamioka Observatory, ICRR, The University of Tokyo. The T2K team started seeing signs of a discrepancy in the behavior of neutrinos and antineutrinos in 2016. Their new result, following years of additional data collection and improvements to the data-analysis techniques, rises to a statistical level that physicists regard as official evidence of a physical effect. “The significance of [the effect] increases with the collected data, which is what one expects when the result is correct,” said Werner Rodejohann, a neutrino physicist at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Germany who was not involved in the experiment. And while next-generation experiments will be needed to gather enough data to definitively claim a discovery, the evidence is piling up years faster than experimenters expected, because neutrinos and antineutrinos seem to differ as much as they possibly could. “Nature seems to be very kind to us,” Rodejohann said. Evidence vs. Discovery Particle physicists require a lot of data to be confident that a physical effect is real rather than a statistical fluctuation. They refer to “evidence” of a discovery when there’s less than a 0.3% probability that a bump in the data could arise by sheer chance — a bar known as “three sigma.” A “discovery” has less than a 0.00006% probability of arising by chance and is known as a five sigma effect. Neutrinos are omnipresent but mysterious, easy to create but hard to catch. They spew from nuclear reactions in the sun and stars and stream through our bodies by the trillions each second. The super lightweight particles are so elusive that their properties are still being explored. Experiments since the 1990s show that, as neutrinos and antineutrinos fly along, they change between three types, or “flavors,” labeled electron, muon and tau. Since 2010, the T2K scientists have been generating muon-flavored neutrinos and antineutrinos in Tokai, Japan, and beaming them 295 kilometers to Kamioka — the location of the Super-Kamiokande neutrino observatory, an underground, sensor-lined tank of 50,000 metric tons of pure water. Occasionally, upon arrival, one of the elusive particles interacts with an atom inside the tank and generates a telltale flash of radiation. The scientists fish for the neutrinos and antineutrinos that have oscillated from muon flavor into electron flavor during their cross-country journey.

The data implies that neutrinos have a higher probability of oscillating than antineutrinos, a distinction expressed by a quantity called the CP-violating phase. If this phase were zero and neutrinos and antineutrinos behaved the same, the experiment would have detected roughly 68 electron neutrinos and 20 electron antineutrinos. Instead, it found 90 electron neutrinos and only 15 electron antineutrinos — highly skewed results indicating that the CP-violating phase could be as large as theoretically possible. “We lighted the first candle,” said Sanchez Nieto, “but the big prize” — a definitive discovery of CP violation — “is still to come.” CP violation among neutrinos supports a theory about how matter came to dominate the universe early on. The theory involves another striking property of neutrinos: They’re all “left-handed,” meaning that a neutrino shooting toward you will always appear to spin clockwise. All antineutrinos, meanwhile, are right-handed; they spin counterclockwise. Given this, and the fact that neutrinos have an inexplicably tiny amount of mass, experts suspect that neutrinos and antineutrinos once had super heavy counterparts with opposite handedness — right-handed neutrinos and left-handed antineutrinos. These ultra-massive particles would only have been able to form in the hot, energetic early universe, where they would have quickly decayed into lighter particles. But if they decayed asymmetrically, they could easily have produced the matter surplus that makes life and the cosmos possible today. If this “seesaw” theory is true, any CP violation among the lightweight neutrinos and antineutrinos would likely be mirrored by their heavy counterparts. “It’s very hard to come up with a theory where there’s CP violation in the light neutrinos but no CP violation in the heavy neutrinos,” Harris said. The NOvA experiment in the United States is also measuring neutrino oscillations and finding hints of CP violation. Even with their results combined, though, NOvA and T2K won’t reach statistical certainty. Future, bigger experiments — one called DUNE in the U.S. that will begin operations in 2027, as well as T2K’s planned successor, known as T2HK — should be able to nail the value of the CP-violating phase. “The T2K results imply that we live in a universe where the next generation of experiments will be able to make a measurement that we’d classify as a discovery of CP violation,” Harris said. Meanwhile, one other crucial measurement will be needed to cement the case that those heavy right-handed neutrinos and left-handed antineutrinos existed in the early universe, and that their decay produced the matter-filled universe we see. Physicists are looking for an extremely rare nuclear decay that could happen if the framework is correct. But so far, that search has come up empty. “Here nature does not seem to like us,” Rodejohann said.
