The
official site for the “ Pokémon ” multimedia franchise
announced the production of a new anime titled “ Dragonite and the Mailman ( Kairyuu to
Yuubinya-san ),” which is scheduled to premiere on the
official Pokémon YouTube channel on February 27 , the day the
franchise is being celebrated. Curiously, the release listed the
production as being handled by CoMix Wave Films, the same studio responsible
for Makoto Shinkai’s films.
Further details about the new Pokémon anime, such as
whether it will have one or multiple episodes, or how long each episode will
last, have yet to be confirmed. However, it has been announced that
its main theme song will be “ Kami Hikouki ,” sung by Suis of
the Japanese rock band Yorushika and featuring lyrics by Ameko Kodama. The song
was composed by Evan Call , a name well known to anime fans as
he has composed music for numerous series and films, including “ Violet
Evergarden ,” “ My Happy Marriage, ” and “ Sousou
no Frieren ,” among many others.
Synopsis of Dragonite and the Mailman
The anime centers on Hana, a girl who admires a Dragonite
who works as a postal worker. One day, Hana receives a letter addressed to no
one, and sets out to find the sender with her trusty Firecracker, traveling
around the city. She discovers that the sender is a boy named Rio, who
apparently intended to send the letter to his father, who is working abroad in
the Kanto region. But as the father's birthday is fast approaching, it seems
that he won't be able to receive the letter in time.
