May 29, 2024 3:55 PM

My Deer Friend Nokotan is a wild new anime from Wit Studio, known for their work on Spy x Family and Attack on Titan. This series follows the adventures of Koshi Torako, a high schooler who encounters Shikanoko, a deer-human hybrid girl stuck in power lines. Torako's life gets turned upside down as she helps Shikanoko, who has antlers and a peculiar nature. The show mixes real deer JPEGs, CGI models, explosions, and an infectious theme song. The anime promises a zany, unpredictable ride reminiscent of Pop Team Epic and Nichijou. The release date for My Deer Friend Nokotan is set for July 7.

My Deer Friend Nokotan follows a high school girl named Koshi Torako whose life changes when she helps Shikanoko, a deer-human hybrid. The anime features a quirky mix of animation styles, including CGI and real images, and explores the weird adventures of this unusual duo in a high school setting.

Looks like Wit Studio is diving headfirst into some seriously quirky territory with *My Deer Friend Nokotan* Given their solid track record with *Spy x Family* and *Attack on Titan*, this wild combo of CGI, real deer images, and zany humor should be a refreshing and unpredictable treat.

My Deer Friend Nokotan looks like it's going to be an absolute blast with its off-the-wall premise and stylistic experimentation. Wit Studio really knows how to keep things fresh, and I can't wait to see how this wacky adventure unfolds.

My Deer Friend Nokotan sounds like an absolute blast, blending unique animation styles and off-the-wall humor in a way that only Wit Studio can pull off. If it’s half as engaging as Pop Team Epic or Nichijou, we’re in for a ride
