DAI-ANI and Yoshikazu Hiruko collaborated to produce the anime "Magical Old Man Girl Ebisu★Chan"!　The main character is played by Yoshikazu Hiruko.

Yoyogi Animation Gakuin has released an original anime "Magical Old Man Girl Ebisu★Chan".

This is a completely new original anime created in collaboration with Yoyogi Animation Gakuin and manga artist/TV personality Yoshikazu Hiruko. Hiruko came up with the punchline for a four-frame manga presented by Yoyogi Animation Gakuin, which was then adapted into an anime. The content is a magical girl story in which a magical girl takes on a monster that appears at a boat racecourse. The work was inspired by Hiruko's favorite boat race, incorporating students' suggestions for a stage and story associated with Hiruko-san.

Students and instructors from the school were in charge of the entire production process, including original drawings, backgrounds, voice acting, and sound. Hiruko-san is also taking on the challenge of voice acting for the first time, playing the role of the main character, "Magical Old Man Girl. Episodes from the production can be viewed on a special page (https://www.yoani.co.jp/yoani/ebisu/).

Production Story
Hiruko-san has deepened her relationship with the students of the school during the animation production process. In the animation background course, pointing to the water surface of a boat racecourse, he said, "In boat racing, there is a regularity to the waves that cut the boats. They are vertical, not horizontal. In the voice-over course, the students were challenged to do sit-ups, a basic exercise, and the scene was filled with laughter when coins kept falling out of Hiruko's pants pockets every time she raised her upper body.
