## Synopsis

From the largest elephant to the smallest shrew, the city of Zootopia is a mammal metropolis where various animals live and thrive. When the Eds and their friends join a case for Judy Hopps, Zootopia's first rabbit officer, they'll have to work together with a help of a sly fox, Nick Wilde, a band of thieves known as the Cooper Gang, and a strange new animal girl who appears to be human but Brand New in every way in Zootopia.

## Cast

* Matt Hill as **Ed**, the lovable, astoundingly strong doofus who serves as the muscle of the Eds, three boys from Peach Creek and one of the three main protagonists of the film. Ed has a number of odd obsessions, including sci-fi and horror movies and comics, chickens, buttered toast, and gravy. An overdose of b-movies and comic books has apparently loosened his grip on reality, making him both spacey and easily-swayed.
* Sam Vincent as **Edd**, mostly referred to as **Double D**, the smartest kid in the neighborhood of Peach Creek, the brains of the Eds and one of the three main protagonists of the film. Neat and morally upright to the point of annoyance, Edd is the oft-unheeded voice of reason in Eddy’s schemes. Wears a stocking cap that he is never seen without.
* Tony Sampson as **Eddy** is the self-styled leader of the Eds, whose height seems to be inversely proportional to his ego, and one of the three main protagonists of the film. Pursues his schemes with a determination that borders on stubbornness, and which would be admirable if he wasn’t such a penny-pinching weasel most of the time.
* Haley Joel Osment as **Sora**, a bright and spirited 15-year-old boy from Destiny Islands, and is in possession of a peculiar weapon called the Keyblade. As a hero chosen to battle the forces of evil, Sora embarks on a quest to save all worlds from evil. He is accompanied by Donald and Goofy. They became friends with the Eds before the events of “Rise of Maleficent.” Like the Eds, Sora and his friends try to gain respect from their peers but due to his age and association with misfits, it doesn’t help either of them.
* Tony Anselmo as **Donald Duck**, a fiery-tempered court magician of Disney Castle. He and Goofy joined with Sora to help him save the worlds and became one of his closest friends. He even befriended the Eds, even though he comes in conflict with the equally hot-tempered Eddy.
* Bill Farmer as **Goofy**, the mild-mannered yet loyal Captain of the Royal Knights at King Mickey’s court at Disney Castle. He and Donald joined up with Sora to help him save the worlds and became one of his closest friends.
* Cherami Leigh as **Michiru Kagemori**, a 17-year-old human girl who one day turned into a Tanuki beastkin and came to Zootopia to find a way to turn herself back. She soon develops the ability to transform parts of her body into those of other animals and can stretch her arms to a massive length, make her tail bigger and can make her arms larger and stronger. She prefers that her beastkin form is a Racoon, not a tanuki.
* Kevin Miller as **Sly Cooper**, a 19-year-old young adult gentleman Master thief raccoon who’s the leader of the Cooper gang and Michiru’s caretaker. He is part of a long line of master thieves who specialize in robbing from violent criminals and never innocent people, making them vigilantes. Early in his life, he witnessed the savage murder of his father at the hands of a group known as the Fiendish Five, who then stole his family's Thievius Raccoonus, which holds many of the Cooper Clan's major thief moves. He was forced into an orphanage, where he met his best friends, Bentley and Murray. Over his years in the orphanage, the three pull off multiple thieving tasks, and soon, Sly decides to carry on the Cooper legacy by making the modern day Cooper Clan. Sly is nimblest of the gang, so he is sent out the most on missions, therefore making him the most played character. He uses a hooked cane, a family heirloom, as a multi-purpose tool.

## Production

A while back, B-Master pitched various ideas to Marcus before working on his projects. One of them involved the Eds going to Zootopia with his friends. Marcus Gibson, the creator and lead director of the series, accepts the idea and adds Sly Cooper and the gang as allies to the film with the plot being unknown in the Avengers saga. Many years later, B-Master Animation was interested in bring BNA: Brand New Animal onto the big screen since their previous crossover works based on Kill La Kill, Little Witch Academia, and Space Patrol Luluco. While B-Master and KirbyStar worked on various scripts to Movieman's projects, they started to watch BNA by the time the Japanese dub was out, gaining new ideas to get how the story works and peeked an interested on Michiru Kagemori. The studio starts to brainstorm an idea on what if Zootopia do have humans once and where do they go. After that, they started working on the concept while staying true to the anime to give out an different kind of origin story to Michiru. Later on, the script was finished and was send to Marcus for his response. Michiru was then added in as the main focus while keeping intact with Judy who has a different perspective in the world. Judy wants to make the world a better place, while Michiru came to the city to find a cure to get back into a human though she does despise animals for her kind to be gone.
