YAT Anshin! Uchū Ryokō

Go To

  • Moe: Maron, a fluffy pink-haired catgirl who has a habit of hiding behind Goro whenever she's scared.
  • Overshadowed by Controversy: While YAT Anshin! Uchū Ryokō was a fairly popular show during its run, the Season 1 Episode 25 episode The mysterious father! was extremely controversial for causing epileptic fits to children across Japan. In a similar case to the Pokémon episode Electric Soldier Porygon (but with less casualties), because said episode featured prominent red/white flashing lights that lasted for several seconds, four children from Shizuoka Prefecture and two children from Chiba Prefecture required hospitalization after seeing it. NHK's President made a public apology, and rental video stores were requested to recall their tapes of the series note  to prevent further incidents. Unlike Electric Soldier Porygon, the episode was lucky enough not to get banned, but in reruns, the scene was replaced by a still image.
