Anime

Around the same time the manga ended in 1979, Tezuka and Sanrio teamed up to make a pilot episode to hopefully have a Unico TV series. The pilot (titled ‘Unico: Kuroi Kumo to Shiroi Hane’) wasn’t quite enough to create a TV series but two movies followed later on.

In 1981, Sanrio and Tezuka teamed up once again with a full length feature film titled Unico (The Fantastic Adventures of Unico in America). The film included other characters from the manga such as Akuma-kun, Chao, and Danshaku.
