In our brand new anime parody skit "Ten(tacle) Foot Rule" at Zipcon last month, Ecchi-sensei demands to know why Magical Bishōjo Scout Shibari-chan refuses to do a transformation henshin and battle a tentacle monster approaching Neo-Nippon 3!

Earlier this month we brought an anime parody back to Zipcon for the first time since 2018 and our first new anime play since 2019! To open our after-dark improv games, Team Henshin-H explained why we hadn't seen them in so long in "Magical Bishōjo Scout Shibari-chan's Ten(tacle) Foot Rule"!
