Degrassi launches new “mangasodes” animated episode shorts
Degrassi fans will be happy to know that “magnasodes” have been launched. They are animated shorts that compliment both the episodes and the manga books that have already been released.
These short episodes are available through the Canadian Degrassi broadcaster, CTV.ca
The popular Degrassi brand is making its world debut online, with Degrassi: Extra Credit “mangasodes” on The CTV Broadband Network at CTV.ca.
At two-minutes in length, the mangasodes are animated extensions of the popular Canadian drama series.
The first mangasode, entitled “Confusionville”, will be available on demand beginning Thursday, Feb. 8 at Noon ET.
“In a world where media are converging in new ways all the time, it seems natural to morph the two-dimensional book world of Degrassi: Extra Credit into animated action shorts for broadband streaming,” said Stephen Stohn, Executive Vice-President, Epitome Pictures Inc., in a release.
The episodes features some of the same Degrassi characters you know and love, anime style.
It is also worth noting for American fans that CTV.ca has a lot of other Degrassi goodies available for downloading and watching, such as on the set interviews and behind the scenes look at Degrassi.
