The Animaniacs’ return to television was definitely a surprise to many fans of the original series, considering it’s been decades since we last saw Yakko, Wakko, and Dot on television sets during the afternoon and Saturday mornings. With this new series, the Warner Brothers are attempting to make up for lost time, all while forming new jokes about a number of events that have taken place during their many year absence. With the original voice actors for the trio of siblings making a return, Rob Paulsen as Yakko, Jess Harnell as Wakko, and Tress MacNeille as Dot respectively, fans have definitely warmed up to this big franchise return, especially when it comes to this animated segment that takes a jab at the world of anime!
Animaniacs’ Creators responsible for the anime segment shared their involvement, and adoration, for the scene in question, taking Yakko, Wakko, and Dot and slapping on anime archetypes onto each of them that represent series like Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon:
