Tono-sama to Stitch

A manga where Stitch from Lilo & Stitch time travels to feudal Japan where a powerful warlord becomes obsessed with his cuteness.

We’ve discussed this on a older episode.

Seriously, how did this happen?

I’m far more interested in how this series came to be than the actual manga itself. Is this like how Kingdom Hearts was born because Square Enix was in the same building as Disney? Did an editor at Kodansha have an elevator ride with a Japanese Disney executive? It baffles the mind how this story of Stitch in Warring States Japan meets “not Nobunaga Oda”. Speaking of which, why is the warlord not factual? He’s clearly drawn as Nobunaga Oda but for whatever reason isn’t named as such. Did Disney have a problem with Stitch interacting with an actual Japanese warlord? This series raises so many questions! Also, why are some panels animated? Is it because it’s Disney? I’m so confused!

You can see this strange title on Comic-Days.
