The Ribbon Hero turns a Tezuka landmark into a new anime adventure
Now streaming on Netflix, The Ribbon Hero is a feature inspired by Osamu Tezuka's Princess Knight and the directorial debut of Yuki Igarashi, whose credits include Jujutsu Kaisen and Star Wars: Visions. It is not a straight adaptation: Netflix describes a new lone hero defying a harsh destiny, built around Igarashi's flair for intricate, kinetic animation.
