Story and Highlights
Have you ever noticed the TV remote in a different spot, or snacks mysteriously disappearing? The culprits might just be Pop, Pap, and Polta — three mischievous little ghost brothers who live inside the walls of an ordinary house. The series follows their funny and slightly mysterious daily life, played out right under the nose of the unsuspecting homeowner.
The show’s standout feature is its painstakingly crafted miniature sets brought to life through stop-motion animation. Director Mozu, a celebrated miniature creator, previously won the Grand Prize in the Japan Youth category at Digicon6 for the solo stop-motion short 故障中 (Out of Order), made while still a student. Mozu also appears on screen as the homeowner.
