Anpan Man Begins...

The story of Japan's most beloved super-hero snack-man.

Anpan (あんパン) is a Japanese bread (or pan, as it was introduced to Japan by the Portuguese,) filled with sweet, red bean paste- the secret to Anpanman's super-snack strength!

Uncle Jam's bread factory nestled in a forest..."Let's make living bread!"

"This time will it will really work!"

Dear God, please give us living bread...That night....

In a distant sky, a Star of Life was born.

....The bread is baked!.........Waaaaah!

Living bread! Come to Dada...Walk... Ah! He can fly!

He got bigger and bigger and became Anpan-man. "I'm going to help the hungry!"

Someone is crying! Go for it, Anpan-man!

It's coming from the bottom of the valley...Who's that?

"Baikin-man, arch- enemy of justice! I was born to fight you! "

"Until we meet again, Baikin!"

I'm coming...come on! You're OK! Eat this! It will make you feel better!

"Yummy Woof! "...."Let's call you cheese!"
