Frog <\/em>anime series premiered in 2004 and ran for 358 episodes across multiple seasons, ending in 2011. 2014 saw the release of the 24-episode <em>Keroro<\/em>. Both series were produced by <strong>Sunrise<\/strong> (now just a brand name of BN Pictures), but with staff differences. <strong>Bridge<\/strong> provided production assistance for the former, while <strong>Gathering<\/strong> did so for the latter. In addition to the series, there are a few anime movies. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><em>Sgt. Frog&nbsp;<\/em>is based on the KADOKAWA-published manga by<strong> Mine Yoshizaki<\/strong>, which began in 1999 (after a 1998 one-shot) in Shonen Ace and is still ongoing, with 33 tankoubon volumes as of May 2023. Viz Media describes the first volume as:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><em><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">After Sgt. Keroro blew his cover and lost his top-secret weapon, the frog-like alien has been cut off from the homeworld. To make matters worse, he&#8217;s lost communications with the rest of his platoon. Now he has taken cover in the Hinata family household, where in exchange for doing his share of the chores, he gets his own room from which to secretly devise new plans of world domination!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">The <em>Sgt.
