A website and Twitter account launched on Monday to announce that a television anime adaptation of Yukiko Natsume’s Okoshiyasu, Chitose-chan manga has been green-lit.
The “soothing short” manga follows Chitose, a fluffy Emperor penguin chick living in Kyoto.
Natsume has been serializing the manga in Kodansha’s Be-Love magazine, and Kodansha published the third compiled book volume on March 13.
