It really stood out and left a lasting impression despite the fierce competition.

What Is Takopi’s Original Sin?

Based on the manga Taizan 5, Takopi’s Original Sin is an anime directed by Shinya Iino at studio ENISHIYA. Keita Nagahara designed the characters, and Yoshiaki Fujisawa created the music. The story centers on Takopi, an alien sent to Earth to bring joy to others. However, he quickly discovers that life on Earth is far more complicated than he anticipated.

Takopi’s Original Sin tackles difficult and serious themes, particularly the abuse of young children, which makes it especially impactful. With the English dub now available on Crunchyroll, more viewers can understand why this anime was so popular when it first came out in 2025.
