Yatogame-chan Kansatsu Nikki

***Yatogame-chan Kansatsu Nikki*** (Japanese: 八十亀ちゃんかんさつにっき, lit. "Yatogame-chan Observation Diary") is a media franchise based on a Japanese four-panel manga series written and illustrated by Masaki Andō that began on May 28, 2016 and end on September 27, 2022 (but that last volume was released 2 months later on December 27, 2022). The manga released 13 tankobon volumes. A short-form (3 min episodes) anime television series adaptation by Creators in Pack and Saetta premiered on April 4, 2021 and ran for 12 episodes to June 20, 2019. A second season started airing its first season on January 5, 2020 and ran for 12 episodes to March 22, 2020. A third season (LEVELS joined as a lead studio replacing Saetta and had worked on the previous two adaptations) premiered on January 10, 2021 also running 12 episodes to March 28, 2021. A fourth season (Hayabusa Film replacing LEVELS as the other lead studio) premiered on April 9, 2022 and ran for 10 episodes to June 11, 2022.

The series generally is considered to have the purpose of promoting interest in regional cultural differences of the area of Nagoya, Aichi prefecture. Nagoya is the largest metropolitan area on the south coast of Honshu in the Chubu region between the Kansai (closer to Nagoya) and Kanto (Tokyo) regions.
