Wit Studios is well-known for its outstanding animation work on Attack on Titan from seasons 1 to 3. This year, the company chose to surprise us with a stark contrast by releasing Onipan!, an original anime series about lovely demon girls and underpants.
WIT Studio Inc. is a well-known animation production company in Japan. On June 1, 2012, it was created as a subsidiary of IG Port by manufacturers at Production IG. George Wada is the current president of the studio, which is based in Musashino, Tokyo, Japan.
The company is well-known for making high content, as evidenced by Attack On Titan before it was surpassed by MAPPA. Vinland Saga, The Rolling Girls, the recently popular Ranking of Kings, Spy X Family, and many others are among them. Onipan is going to be another fantastic, original anime series!
The onipan a mix of “oni” and “pantsu”, transforms three oni-kids into humans to help humans and oni mend their relationship. The three girls join an ordinary Tokyo high school to aid them in the objective and clear their name by revitalizing the community, sometimes throwing themselves into school activities enthusiastically, and other times by becoming famous idols!
So here’s what we know about the new anime series.
Onipan: When Did the Anime Premiered?
Norihiro Naganuma created the original Japanese anime television series, which was animated by Wit Studio and produced by Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions. The Onipan, which features cute three demons that wish to heal the relationships between humans and demons appeared as part of the 2022 Spring Anime program on April 11, 2022. Oha Suta, a children’s variety show on TV Tokyo, premiered the series.
As the series is still airing, fans can’t get enough of the cuteness and demand more of it, so episode 6 of Onipan is expected to launch on May 20, 2022.
Onipan: What’s the Storyline of the Anime?
The new anime series Onipan! is set in a fantasy universe where humans and demons live in harmony. There seems to be an old idea that demons are the evil people, though not in the world of Onipan!, where demons get along well with humans.
They cannot, though, continually live despite their nature, since they occasionally revert to their old malicious habits. The story follows three young Onikko girls as they seek to change the perception of demons by completing small activities.
As, for the upcoming episode, it will carry the storyline from the previous episodes. At the Momo Tower, the annual Momo Battle Royale will determine who is the true Momotaro.

Momozono Momo gives everyone a quick rundown of the competition. She explains how Momotaros from all across the globe gather to compete for the title of “Ultimate Momotaro.” She expresses her desire for the trio to serve as judges for the contest rather than participate in it. Momotaro’s ancient past is told to them by a red-haired girl named Inuyama.
They proclaim Momozono the winner upon reviewing the duel. Momo encounters Aozono Ao, a descendant of a Momotaro from Takamatsu, Kagawa. In the second round of the competition. In the midst of all, Kurozono Kuro, a third rival, appears. Momo utilizes the MTCG Momotaro Trading Card Game once she is declared the victor.
By overpowering each other, they begin drawing their particular best cards. While you assume either of them seems to have the upper hand, the other pulls out an even greater and more powerful card. Someone suddenly exclaims, “I’m so lost,” so we’ll have to wait until episode 6 to answer this cliffhanger mystery.
