Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! is a TV anime adaptation of the manga by Sumito Oowara, produced by Science SARU under the direction of visionary filmmaker Masaaki Yuasa, who also serves as series composer. Blending adventure, comedy, and slice-of-life storytelling, the series follows the passionate trio of Midori Asakusa, Tsubame Mizusaki, and Sayaka Kanamori as they pour their hearts into building an animation club from the ground up. With Masaaki Yuasa's signature kinetic direction and Science SARU's expressive animation craft, the series transforms the raw joy of creation into a visually electrifying experience that speaks directly to every dreamer and animation enthusiast.

Set in an ordinary high school, this story follows Midori Asakusa, a first-year student with an all-consuming passion for anime. She firmly believes that "concept is everything" when it comes to animation, and her sketchbooks are filled with elaborate, imaginative worlds that exist nowhere but her own mind. Despite her remarkable creativity, Midori has never managed to turn those ideas into actual anime, convinced that the task is simply too big to tackle on her own. Enter Sayaka Kanamori, a sharp and pragmatic classmate with a natural talent for organization and strategy, who becomes the first person to truly recognize Midori's hidden genius. Meanwhile, their classmate Tsubame Mizusaki appears to live a glamorous life as a sought-after fashion model — yet beneath that polished exterior lies a burning ambition that has nothing to do with the runway. When these three very different girls find themselves drawn together by a shared love of animation, they take a leap of faith and establish an animation club, determined to bring their ultimate creative visions to life.
