A sentient cloud castle, a dirt-washing princess, and your favorite bread heroes go full chaos mode.
Rollpanna visits Ukikimo Castle and meets Princess Lola. Her job is to wash away the world's dirt. However, the machine for that has broken down and Rollpanna helps her repair it. Worried that the Ukigumo Castle is dirty, Anpanman came to help. But Baikinman has invaded and tried to fill the world with dirt using "bamboo rain". Rollpanna is turned into Black Rollpanna, and then Currypanman is also turned black. Can Anpanman and friends save the day?

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ukigumo (floating cloud) castles reference traditional Japanese art motifs, blending Taketori Monogatari whimsy with 90s environmental anxieties.
Hitomi Kuroki (Princess Lola) was already a major live-action star; her casting here is like Meryl Streep doing a Pixar short.
