Super Shiro

Super Shiro (stylized in all caps) is a Japanese original net animation series produced by Science Saru who also handles planning and general production duties alongside Shin-Ei Animation. A spin-off of the popular Crayon Shin-chan franchise, based on the manga of the same name by Yoshito Usui, the series focuses on the adventures of Shiro, a seemingly-normal family dog who, when the Earth is threatened, secretly transforms into a canine superhero to protect the planet from nefarious villains. The series, consisting of 48 five-minute episodes, was released in Japan exclusively on the TV Asahi-affiliated streaming platforms AbemaTV and Telasa from October 2019 to September 2020, and was subsequently aired on Cartoon Network in Australia, India, and throughout Southeast Asia as well as Taiwan. A manga adaptation written and illustrated by Kenta Aiba was serialized in Futabasha's Monthly Manga Town magazine from August 2020 to December 2021 with its chapters being collected into two tankobon volumes.
