The anime 「タコピーの原罪」(Takopi’s Original Sin) is officially heading to theaters under the full title 「タコピーの原罪 -ありがとう、また明日-」 (Takopi’s Original Sin: Arigatou, Mata Ashita). Along with this announcement, a special preview (特報) and a message from original manga author Taizan 5 have also been released.
About the Story
「タコピーの原罪」 is a work by Taizan 5, serialized in Shonen Jump+ from November 2021 to March 2022. The story follows “Takopi,” an alien being from the Planet of Happiness who descends to Earth to spread joy, and encounters a girl named Shizuka — setting the stage for a complex and emotionally stirring narrative.

The special preview already released depicts the path of Takopi, Shizuka, and their friends, accompanied by the message: “To everyone who has met Takopi — that story, one more time.”
