Studio Mappa will be banking on nostalgia to turn their upcoming
Uchi Tama!? TV anime into a hit. The series is a loose remake of the 1983 7-episode OVA
Tanma & Friends, from Group TAC. The original show even managed to make its way stateside as a dub was broadcast in North America by 4Kids Entertainment in 2001, airing in the early hours of Saturday Morning for the classic Kids WB lineup would start.
You can check out a portion of an episode of the original
Tanma & Friends anime below, along with a promo for the new show that contains a few snippets of wacci's OP, "Friends." Wacci previously provided the ED theme for
Your Lie In April.
