PaRappa the Rapper (series)

PaRappa the Rapper is a 2001-2002 anime based off the Playstation game of the same name; it was meant as a tie-in for the second game in the series. The anime ran for a total of 30 episode (with the final two episodes being combined into a 1-hour special).

PaRappa is an anthropomorphic teenage dog with a passion for hip-hop. He's in love with an anthropomorphic flower named Sunny Funny. PaRappa also likes to spends his time with his friends PJ Berri and Katy Kat.

The anime is a Slice of Life work that expands upon the games and features several original characters. It, however, de-emphasises the rapping; PaRappa only raps once in the entire series.
