Yutori Tanaka
Description
Yutori Tanaka is credited as the original creator behind the anime series Yutori-chan. This credit establishes the creator as the originator of the series concept and characters.
Yutori-chan began as a web anime distributed by the Japanese online services company Biglobe. A limited preview of the first four episodes was available from December 29 to December 31, 2009, with the full series debut following on March 16, 2010. The series was notable for its distribution method, as viewers received an email from the title character containing a link to watch each episode. The production consisted of 25 short episodes, each approximately three to four minutes in length.
The creative team for the anime adaptation brought together director Keiichiro Kawaguchi, known for his work on Moetan and Hayate the Combat Butler, and original character designer POP, with animation production by Studio Actus. The voice cast included Aoi Yūki in the role of the protagonist, Yutori Tanaka.
