Directed by Future Power Station and produced by PASSION Animation with agency Leo Burnett, McDonald’s Happy Meal ‘UNO x Anime’ launches into a high-energy anime adventure inspired by some of the most beloved shonen series of the last two decades. Created for McDonald’s, the film celebrates exclusive UNO decks themed around Naruto, My Hero Academia, Spy x Family and Boruto, bringing parents and kids together through play.
Leaning fully into authentic anime language, the film embraces clean linework, bold lighting and expressive character design, with dynamic camera moves and fast-paced edits driving the action. Drawing from the shared DNA of shonen storytelling, dramatic poses, explosive power-up moments and heightened facial expressions, it layers in subtle easter eggs for fans to spot.
