PPP no pixiv-tan, which has been serialized in Monthly G Fantasy magazine, will have its main character, pixiv-tan, show up in the animation Robot Girls Z!
PPP no pixiv-tan features a personification of “pixiv” called “pixiv-tan” that goes through all sorts of zany and hilarious situations through Monthly G Fantasy (including their offices) to try and spread pixiv’s name. She’s gone as far as calling it “Monthly P Fantasy” and this time she’ll be appearing in Robot Girls Z to try and change it to “Robot Girls P.”
Starting Jan 1st, 2014, Toei Channel will broadcast the series so if you get a chance to watch it, please see it for Team Z and pixiv-tan’s appearances!
