EarthBound (2018 TV series) (Johnsonverse)

EarthBound is an American anime based on the multimedia franchise of the same name. It was developed by Timothy Hill, and has aired on WBC since September 8, 2018.

A reboot of the original continuity, the series is created using a hybrid of animation and practical effects (such as miniatures, puppetry, and pyrotechnics). Though it has several key differences from the original series (such as Poo living and Giygas and Giegue being the same person), other elements (such as the Daleks instead of the Starmen and the character of General William Landon; Twoson Police Chief Bill Stagman was omitted due to Leonard Nimoy's death in 2015) remained.

Upon release, the series was critically acclaimed for both staying true to and offering a fresh take on the EarthBound franchise. It has been renewed to an eighth season for 2025.
