Taking as many cues from the soothing Rilakkuma and Kaoru as it does Nintendo’s big series, this teaser hints at a better world. A world where every time I turn on Netflix I’m asked if I want to keep watching an Animal Crossing series, and I get to say yes.
Made throughout the course of the year, it was directed by Gabriel Salas, with animation by Jaime Mora, storyboards by Ale Carrasco and music by Jeremy Neroes. Camila Asencio, meanwhile, handled the Japanese writing.
