More than likely, veteran anime viewers have spotted a “WcDonald’s” restaurant in many of their favorite anime films or shows. From 80’s classics like City Hunter to shonen hits from the 2000’s like Inuyasha, the copyright-free parody of McDonald’s has appeared in dozens if not hundreds of anime as a humorous doppelgänger of America’s favorite fast-food chain. Now, McDonald’s has teamed up with Studio Pierrot (Black Clover, Bleach, Naruto, and more) and acclaimed illustrator Acky Bright to create an entire WcDonald’s animated universe, featuring an array of original characters and stories.McDonald’s just released the first of four WcDonald’s shorts. featuring characters designed by Bright. The artist is also creating individual manga for each episode. The WcDonald’s anime derives inspiration from four popular genres, making the series a great introduction to not only the WcDonald’s universe, but to the world of anime as a whole. With the help of an interpreter, CBR sat down for an exclusive interview with Bright, who explained not only why he chose to work as an illustrator, but how the WcDonald’s project is particularly special to him as a creator.Bright: It’s mainly an extension of doing the things that I love, and not necessarily because I have a big vision, or anything like that. I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember, which has led up to what I do [as a career] now.
