Megan Thee Stallion has long been open about her love for anime, from cosplaying as My Hero Academia’s Shoto Todoroki to name-dropping Goku in her lyrics. Now, she is leveling up from fan to creator. In a recent announcement, Megan revealed that her very own anime series is in the works, and she is teaming up with none other than The Boondocks executive producer Carl Jones to bring it to life. The show will stream on Amazon Prime Video, adding some serious star power to the platform’s growing anime offerings.
Megan teased the project with infectious enthusiasm, according to @ToonHive on X, promising fans, “You ain’t never seen an anime like this ever in your life!” That bold claim, coming from someone with a deep appreciation for the genre, has stirred major buzz online. With Carl Jones involved, an industry veteran known for pushing boundaries in animation, it is safe to say this anime will not follow the typical playbook. Instead, it is poised to blend Megan’s distinct personality with Jones’ sharp cultural satire, setting the stage for something truly original.

Jones, best known for his work on The Boondocks and Black Dynamite, has a history of fusing comedy, cultural commentary, and amazing animation. His creative voice helped redefine adult animation in the 2000s, and now he is bringing that same edge to Megan’s vision. Their partnership promises a series that is not just visually bold, it will also have something to say.

Their anime has the potential to push boundaries, both in of representation and genre storytelling.
What Fans Can Expect From Megan Thee Stallion's Series
An Anime Unlike Anything Fans Have Seen Before
While details about the anime’s plot are still under wraps, fans can expect a series that reflects Megan’s bold, unapologetic persona. Given her track record, the show will likely be a high-energy mix of action, style, and empowerment, and something that speaks to both longtime anime lovers and newcomers. With Megan involved in the creative process, the series could also incorporate themes of self-expression, resilience, and sisterhood in ways that feel authentic and exciting.
This anime also marks a significant moment for representation in the medium. Black women are rarely at the forefront of anime, especially as creators and protagonists. Megan Thee Stallion’s entry into the anime world could help shift that landscape. If successful, her series might open doors for more diverse voices in the space. And with Amazon backing the project, there is potential for wide reach and real cultural impact, which is exactly the kind of disruption Megan and Carl Jones were born to make.
