Samurai Frog Golf was created with the explicit goal of developing it into series or feature. The world shown in the film is the bare minimum of what we could squeeze into our budgeted 3.5 minute runtime. At this moment we're looking for co-production partners and examining development opportunities in Japan and North America. As for it's inception, back in 2016 I was trying to improve my character design skills by taking part in the Character Design Quarterly challenge on Facebook. One of my drawings that was more popular than the others was of a big fat frog samurai. I don’t know how I made the leap but I started asking around what people thought was more interesting: A samurai who used a golf club or a golfer who used a sword - and the answer was unilaterally the first. So the story grew from there. It also didn’t hurt that I grew up next to a golf course and my dad has been drilling golf stories and golf jokes into my brain for the last 40 years.
