Teaser Unveils Tonko House’s Famed Staff
By Epic Dope Staff | July 4, 2022
Best known for The Dam Keeper, an Oscar-nominated short film released in 2014, the animation studio, Tonko House, has just revealed glimpses of its upcoming project.
Netflix has just posted a new trailer for Oni: Thunder God’s Tale, which will receive four episodes.
Right off the bat, the Japanese monster or yokai theme of the series stands predominant. You can see yokai like kappa, tengu, oni, and others in the teaser.
The tengu summons someone he addresses as ‘her.’ This might be the protagonist of the film, Onari, a free-spirited monster who has yet to discover her unique powers.
There’s no doubt that Oni is here to grab your attention and never let go.
The teaser has a unique animation style that made me fall in love with it at first sight, and I can’t wait to see how the Tonko House plays with Japanese folklore.
