Harimogu Harley (はりもぐハーリー, Harimogu Hārī, Hedgehog Harley) (Also known as Harley Spiny) is a 10-minute kids anime created by Takashi Murakami and animated by Image K and Studio Junio. The anime originally aired on NHK from August 5, 1996 to June 27, 1997 and was cancelled after 2 seasons and 140 episodes due to Image K going bankrupt. As of today this anime has now been dubbed in Chinese, Cantonese, Korean and Spanish.

In a part of the world lies the Animal Village. Living within the village is Harley, a small, mischievous and curious hedgehog. His friends include Risuko (a squirrel who’s a cheerful crybaby who also wants to be a doctor when she grows up), Takuya (a mandrill who’s a mama’s boy who always wants to be number one), Agezo (an insomniac elephant who’s Risuko’s boyfriend) and Gaburine (a crocodile with an eating disorder). Join Harley and his pals for his many misadventures wringing fun out of just about everything they encounter!

Very little aside the plot is known about the show as there is no footage online and little documentation of it. On February 18, 2008 the first episode was uploaded to Niconico but it was later taken down by NHK. On December 6, 2010 the first 26 episodes were uploaded to Youtube but were later taken down by NHK on November 1, 2013. In 2013 a Photobucket/KnowYourMeme user named Silvercrossbow/Subjugator upload screenshots and GIFs of the first 26 episodes just in time before they were taken down by NHK.
