Preview Hoopa's Appear Plan!!

[Neo Blaze]

This has been announced since last Thursday but since no one in the Anime section has picked up on it yet I decided to create a preview thread for it. Apparently Oha Suta announced a short spin-off anime series featuring Ash, Pikachu and Hoopa that will air weekly on Thursday for an unspecified amount of weeks. The series mainly seems to focus on comic relief and practical jokes. It's not supposed to be related to the earlier announced Hoopa short "The Minidjinni of the Word "Appear!": Hoopa".

According to pocketmonsters.net, the title for at least the first episode of the mini-series is フーパのおでまし大作戦 (pocketmonsters.net translates it as "Hoopa's Appear! Plan", but that doesn't sound like a correct translation, so if anyone with Japanese skills could verify, that'd be great), and the first short will be released this Thursday, April 23.

Filb.de has a trailer for the mini-series, click the link and then scroll down to the second video:

The translation is correct.

It looks amazing. I plan on watching it. It has a reference to 2000 :')

Sounds like it's silly for the sake of silly. I'll give it a go, might be good fun

If TPCi decides to dub these (Chances are they would since they're dubbing the Mega Evolution Shorts), it might stream on the official website.

They look like they're all for nothing, but still rather fun

I shall call this series..."Poke-Tunes" :lol:

Oh this looks great!! Will be a treat to have something starring Satoshi and Pikachu all by themselves even if these are very short.
