The animated character Rascal the Raccoon is a beloved figure in Japan. Based on the 1963 novel Rascal, A Memoir of a Better Era by Sterling North, Nippon Animation created the adorable character that fans know today. In 2022, Rascal is celebrating his 45th anniversary, and a number of events will be held throughout the year. In 1977, the anime aired as the third entry in the World Masterpiece Theater series. Set in Wisconsin, it tells the story of a young boy named Sterling and his raccoon Rascal as they spend a year together. New art has been prepared for the festivities with a nostalgic feel. This is sure to appeal to adults who watched Rascal as children, and this summer, a merchandise event in Tokyo will focus on items printed with this ‘classic design.’ This event will then travel around Japan!
Events
Rascal the Raccoon x KabukiFor the Kabuki collaboration, two pieces of unique art have been created with classical theater motifs. From butterflies to umbrellas, these pieces of traditional art are sure to appeal to both Japanese fans and international fans alike. Goods will be produced featuring this art, so keep an eye out! Collaboration Cafe In the summer of 2022, Rascal will team up with LOCAL BASE, a cafe and hotel in Miyakojima, Okinawa, for a collaboration cafe. Inside the cafe, guests will be able to see images from the anime series. World Masterpiece Theater x Felissimo
The second collaboration collection between Felissimo and World Masterpiece Theater is now available to buy online. In addition to ‘Anne of Green Gables,’ ‘Rascal the Raccoon,’ and ‘A Dog of Flanders,’ the second volume includes ‘Princess Sara’ and ‘Tales of Little Women.’ The items include a one-piece dress and cape, a scarf, a mask case featuring Rascal, and more.
