“Look, there’s a piece of yam sushi wearing cowboy boots…and over there’s a spicy tuna roll in designer pumps…”This has got to be one of the cutest goddamned things I’ve seen in a while. Early next year, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation will debut The Very Good Adventures of Yam Roll in Happy Kingdom, a cartoon from March Entertainment about the heroic exploits of a cab-driving sushi superhero and his love interest, a spicy tuna roll named Minamiko. Really, you should just go watch the short to get a better feel for the superpower soon to be unleashed on Canadian broadcasting.

Thanks for the support and keep watching for Yam Roll to appear on networks in the U.S., Europe and beyond -- or, if you can catch it on the CBC, more power to you. Keep up the great work!
