TOHO unveiled a trailer and new visual on Monday for Pui Pui Molcar the Movie: MOLMAX, the all-new film animated with 3D CG (as opposed to the stop-motion animation in Shin-Ei Animation’s previous Pui Pui Molcar anime series).
Mankyū (Sumikkogurashi – Good to be in the corner, Migi & Dali, The IDOLM@STER Shiny Colors) is directing the film, with original Pui Pui Molcar stop-motion series director Tomoki Misato credited as chief supervisor.
The franchise also inspired the Pui Pui Molcar Mogu Mogu Parking smartphone game, which launched in July 2021.
Pui Pui Molcar, the series’ compilation film, opened in Japan in July 2021.
