TMS Entertainment and Tubi Partner to Announce Tubi Exclusive Debut of Seven New Anpanman Films

LOS ANGELES (September 14, 2021) — TMS Entertainment and Tubi have partnered to announce the Tubi exclusive premiere of seven new films from global powerhouse anime franchise Anpanman for English and Spanish speaking audiences.

With five dedicated museums, Anpanman is the most popular character among both boys and girls in Japan.
