Free streamer Tubi has ordered “Yokoso Scooby-Doo!,” the first anime series of the “Scooby-Doo” franchise.

Warner Bros. Animation and Japan’s OLM Studios produce the series, which will air on Tubi in the United States and Cartoon Network internationally. Itsuro Kawasaki will direct, with Francisco Paredes serving as co-producer.

Yokoso Scooby-Doo! will follow Shaggy and Scooby (voiced by Frank Welker and Matthew Lillard) as they visit Japan on the ‘ultimate foodie adventure.

While there, they unwittingly unleash hundreds of mythical monsters that are causing trouble across the country. With the help of Scooby’s uncle, Daisuke-Doo, along with new friends, magical girl Yume and gadget whiz Takumi, the group embarks on an all-new mystery filled with monster chasing and fun chaos.

Sam Register, president of Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios and Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe, says in a statement:

“Welcome to Mystery Inc., Tubi. We’re excited to partner on this next chapter as we push the Scooby-Doo franchise forward with its first-ever original anime series. Alongside the amazing artists at OLM, we’ll unmask a new batch of mysteries, signature hijinks, and — of course — plenty of Scooby Snacks, all brought to life through the dynamic artistry of anime.”

“Yokoso Scooby-Doo!” is one of two new Scooby shows on the way, the other being Netflix’s live-action “Scooby-Doo: Origins” which began filming in April.
