3	''Yume no Hoshi no Button Nose'' (Button Nose of the Star of Dreams) was {{Creator/Sanrio}}'s first foray into anime, giving one of their characters her own show. The series took two years to produce, with some of the animation done by {{Creator/Topcraft}}, and aired from October 19, 1985 to April 26, 1986 on TV Asahi.

5	The series focused on Button Nose, a little girl who had been left in charge of her home while her parents were away. One night, a robot came to her house to pick up some strawberries. When Button Nose saw his spaceship, she accidentally started it and landed on his home planet. The king of the planet happened to be a relative of hers and invited her to stay on the planet.

12	!! This anime provides examples of:
13	* {{Animesque}}: Inverted. Sanrio was influenced by ''Franchise/{{Peanuts}}'' at the time, having owned the rights to it in Japan and the art style and animation in this show proves it. There's also a character who looks suspiciously similar to [[WesternAnimation/BettyBoop Betty Boop]].
14	* AlternativeForeignThemeSong: The [[http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4dvww_bouton-d-or_creation French]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbJkNN1HZDI Arabic]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_mzr-cTczs Korean]] opening themes.
15	%%* CartoonCreature: Franklin (Howie in the English dub)
16	* DubNameChange: Most of the characters except Button Nose in Saban's version (and even her in foreign dubs of that).
17	* LighterAndSofter: Unlike Sanrio's films, this show sticks much closer to the cute, kid-friendly vibes they're known for.
18	* SheIsTheKing: In the English opening Button Nose is referred to as the king of Berryland, and this persists throughout the series.
19	* StrawberryShorthand: Strawberries are a recurring symbol throughout the series and character merchandise. In addition, strawberry juice is actually used as an energy source.
20	%%* StockNessMonster: One appears in episode 2.
