Production notes

Each 22-minute episode consists of two cartoons.

Lots of kids make lots of wishes every day. What happens to all these wishes? Where do they go? Who keeps track of them? That's where Maryoku and her Wish-Sitter friends come in! Caring for wishes is a full-time job in the magical and whimsical world of the Yummy.

Maryoku Yummy reinforces positive thinking with likable characters in a colorful, fantasy world. "Maryoku" means magical in Japanese, and the characters of Maryoku Yummy inhabit Nozomu, a colorful universe inspired by the Edo period of Japanese art.

Every episode of Maryoku Yummy presents a distinct lesson. As the Wishes grow in wisdom, so do the Yummy, who then pass it along to our audience. The educational content of this series deals with pro-social issues (friendship, trust, truth, responsibility, etc.). The tone is about relationships and getting along.

A nationally-recognized educator oversees all of the storylines to make sure the content provides young viewers with valuable, relatable lessons from which they can learn and grow from the fun and adventure that takes place in Nozomu.
