Toei Animation posted the December 23 opening date for its upcoming original anime film Popin Q, as well as three minutes of footage from the film, on Tuesday.
Izumi Todo, the collective pseudonym for the Toei Animation staff, is credited with the film’s original work.
Toei had initially planned to release the film in January 2017, but decided to move it forward to December 23, 2016 and increase the number of theaters showing the film.
The film is commemorating Toei Animation’s 60th anniversary.
