At this year’s Ottawa International Animation Festival, I sat down with I.Toon‘s Yuichi Ito and his manager Hiroko Kamata to talk about his series of short stop-motion films, Norabbits’ Minutes. Created for Shochiku’s 110th anniversary, Norabbits’ Minutes features two young rabbit brothers who live together in the forest and have endearing adventures together… though not without some absurd twists. As a bonus, we’re also presenting the first episode of Norabbits’ Minutes in its entirety.
