The music video for “Shaun the Sheep (Life’s a Treat) (English Cover),” released by Hitsuji Bungaku on Thursday, June 6th, will premiere on Wednesday, June 26th.

This work, released on Sheep Day, is a cover of the theme song of the British clay animation “Shaun the Sheep.” It was released as part of a collaboration project between “Shaun the Sheep” and Hitsuji Bungaku.

The MV was created by illustrator, who also worked on the key visuals for the collaboration project.Yu FukagawaThe original art by Shawn is based on a unique worldview, and when Shawn wanders into the bored-looking Hitsuji Bungaku group Moeka, Yurika, and Hiroa, he becomes interested in the band and their instruments. When the mischievous Shawn touches the guitar, the three of them begin to change.

Furthermore, collaboration goods using original art created by Yu Fukagawa featuring Shaun, members of Hitsuji Bungaku, and Hitsuji Bungaku’s official character Hitsuji-chan, which is also popular on Hitsuji Bungaku’s merchandise, will be available for pre-order at the “Shaun the Sheep Shop” that will open on ZOZOTOWN at 12:00 on Wednesday, June 26th. Also, official LINE stamps using the illustrations will go on sale from Thursday, June 27th.

I think we will be able to enter the world of Fukagawa-san, who drew the collaborative art, and present a cute worldview that is a little different from the usual Hitsuji Kagaku. This is the first time that Sean has performed with a human, so I am very honored that this music video will also be released worldwide. If you watch this music video after listening to the song, I think you will be given a different worldview and impression, so please check it out.

We’re sure fans around the world will enjoy the new song and Sean’s fun, new style music video.
We would like to thank Yu Fukagawa, who has created a wonderful worldview with his unique and wonderful illustration style,
This was made possible thanks to our wonderful partners who produced a unique Sean like no other before.
I am truly happy to have been a part of this special project, from the birth of the idea for the collaboration to the presentation of the finished product.
