 This year's animation project lineup for Anime Tamago, formerly Anime Mirai, has been revealed via its official website, as well as a promotional video and an MC comment video. The second promotional video features voice actors Takayuki Kondo and Mie Sonozaki who will be the moderators of the upcoming screening. Formerly known as Anime Mirai, Anime Tamago is an initiative to train young animators through the production of anime shorts by the Agency for Cultural Affairs of the Japanese Ministry of Education. The shorts will be screened as part of Tokyo Anime Award Festival 2017 on March 11 at the Ikebukuro HUMAX Cinemas theater in Tokyo. There will be a free screening for 150 selected audiences through a lottery that will be held until February 24. Charanpo Shima no Monogatari  SynopsisAt the far end of the Southern Seas, where none had dared to go, there exists an island called Charanpo Land. At the center of that island is a giant baobab tree, which produces many eggs each day. Inside the eggs are food, clothing, and other daily necessities. The inhabitants of the island live carefree lives, dependent upon the eggs. But lately, more and more of the eggs have been turning up empty, which makes the inhabitants uneasy. Then one day, with a thunderous crash, and an explosion of rainbow-colored light, the baobab tree produces an egg of curious appearance. The next morning, the village chief Poncho tells the inhabitants that they must find that egg. Now the tiger Kometora and a group of children must find the egg within the forest.

| I hope some of them actually make the cut like Death Parade and Little Witch Academia did. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Genbanojou is the only one decent looking. |
 |
| Will watch Genbanojou and Zunda Horizon, maybe Red Ash: Gearworld too because nanomachines. |
 |
| Coolio! Thought Anime Mirai was dead :o |
| hopefully they'll get translated... i'm still waiting for two anime from 2015 and two from 2016 :/ |
 |
| I really need to watch all of the ones I missed (I didn't even see the pig one yet). This might be one of the few good recurrent offerings. Death Billiard was a great product, but it wasn't thought for TV. The result of this error was Death Parade who struggled to have a red line linking the whole series. |
| Zunko got an anime, sign me up, she's a cutie. |
 |
| Looking forward to Genba no Joukitsune and Red Ash! |
| Nippon Animation still alive and kicking somewhat huh, looking forward to their project. |
 |
| Red Ash lives!!! Pretty excited for each of these more or less. |
 |
| Eh, it looks okay I guess. Feels underwhelming compared to previous years though. I'm mostly interested in Red Ash: Gearworld. |
 |
Simar said: Ain't that the fucking truth. I think Red Ash has the best chance of getting subs out of these.hopefully they'll get translated... i'm still waiting for two anime from 2015 and two from 2016 :/ |
 |
| Genba and Red Ash are the only ones that interested me |
