As you can see below, the teaser for Rick and Morty: The Anime follows our stars as they face an alien invasion. The clip begins with Morty warning his grandfather of the impending attack, but as usual, Rick is barely phased. The scientist is too busy working on some experiment to bother with the aliens, but the same cannot be said for the army.
After all, the teaser moves to the alien invaders as they land on Rick’s home, and things get unhinged from there. The robotic aliens are ready to attack, but Rick is not having anything to do with it. He tells the guests he doesn’t have time for their shtick, so you can bet Rick has something up his sleeve to counter the aliens.
