Natsuzora: THE Anime Expy Maker that everyone can die for!

Natsuzora by NHK is a docudrama tv series released in 2019. Inspired by the life of Reiko Okuyama, the late wife of Yoichi Kotabe, the man who designed Bowser of Super Mario fame, this docudrama focuses on her fictitious expy, who herself animated expies of many famous pop culture characters including Little Orphan Annie and Devilman.

The most popular part of the whole series overall is about Annie the Witch, who is basically an expy of Mako Chan and Mitsuteru Yokoyama's Sunny and Sally, with other elements from Majokko Meg Chan, Chappy, Fujio Akatsuka's Akko Chan, and Little Orphan Annie.
