Papuwa (2022 TV series)

Papuwa is an anime television series based upon both the Nangoku Shōnen Papuwa-kun manga by Ami Shibata and to the manga of the same name, also by Shibata. The anime is co-produced by Studio Aura (with animation by Nippon Animation, as with prior Papuwa series) and AuraNightfall, premiering on October 1st, 2022 in the United States. According to Nickelodeon Family, the anime would attempt to cover the entirety of both manga, as both previous anime only covered certain parts of the manga they were based on. The anime would be the second anime based on Papuwa to be released outside of Japan (after 2003's Papuwa adaptation) as well as the first Papuwa series to be simulcast for streaming (particularly, via Crunchyroll, HIDIVE, and Flare+). The series is set to be split into three cours- one covering Nangoku Shōnen Papuwa-kun, which will air throughout the fall 2022 anime season, and two covering the sequel Papuwa, which will air throughout the Spring and Summer 2023 anime seasons. The series would begin its Japanese run on TV Akihabara and BS TV Tokyo in January 2023.

On September 2nd, 2022, YTV 2 announced it had acquired the Canadian broadcast rights to the series in a deal also including other content from AuraNightfall, AnimeCore Extra and AuraAnime Licensing. Dubbed episodes would stream on Teletoon+ in Canada following each episode's YTV 2 broadcast.
