Official Trailer & Poster for RILAKKUMA & KAORU on Netflix (Premieres April 2019)

And while we've only a sliver of stop-motion visuals from the earlier teaser, the "official trailer" for "Rilakkuma and Kaoru" has since been launched, and features their "human" friend! In my real-life, I'd only known of ONE person who adores "Rilakkuma", and perhaps there are tons other "closet"-fans in my readers too?

An original stop-motion project done for Netflix, RILAKKUMA & KAORU will stream on Netflix starting April 19th, 2019.

SYNOPSIS: "Kaoru's unexpected new roommate is Rilakkuma, a bear with a zipper on its back that spends each day just lazing around, but is impossible to hate. Often sweet, sometimes bitter, Rilakkuma & Kaoru (Mikako Tabe) spend 12 colorful months together."
