Background

It had a limited release in 1968 and won several awards that year such as the prestigious Mainichi Film Nobuo Ofuji Award. On August 1, 1970 it had more nationwide release as a part of the Toho Champion Matsuri where several films are shown back to back for children at a discounted price over school holidays. As such, Minikui Ahiru no Ko was quadruple billed with Gezora, Ganime, Kameeba: Kessen! Nankai no Daikaijuu (Space Amoeba in the US release), Kyojin no Hoshi: Shukumei no Taiketsu, and Attack No.1: Namida no Kaiten Receive.
