An anime short has been created for the Nagoya-based tonkatsu chain Yabaton. The film will debut on an outdoor screen adjacent to the flagship Yabaton location, and the lead voice actor Fukushi Ochiai—who brings Buu‑chan to life—will be present at the launch.
The story centers on the timid yet compassionate Buu‑chan and his eccentric relatives, who find themselves in both comedic mishaps and touching moments.
Yabaton is renowned for Nagoya"s signature street dish, misokatsu—a pork cutlet smothered in miso sauce—alongside other fried specialties. While the franchise operates numerous outlets, its primary store sits in Yaba‑cho within Nagoya"s Osu Shopping District, easily identified by its imposing mascot today everywhere.
