The Yamibou: Darkness, the Hat, and the Travelers of the Books series has now found its way to some new streaming as the folks at Tubi TV have added it to their service here. The series was picked up by Media Blasters back in 2013 and we had a DVD release in the first few years and a Blu-ray release in the last few years that was bilingual in nature.
Plot concept: Hatsuki is a highschool student living with her sister, Hatsumi, who she has a huge crush on. On Hatsumi’s 16th birthday, she is suddenly surrounded by a green light and disappears in front of Hatsuki. She manages to follow Hatsumi with the help of a being resembling a fat baby chick (literally), ending up in a place called “The Great Library”, which is full of different worlds stored in books. Hatsumi wasn’t there, though, so the search for Hatsuki’s great love begins and involves traveling from book to book.
