Just watched the first episode of Rilakkuma and Kaoru on Netflix. Unless my memory is wrong, this is the first time I ever watched a Japanese stop-motion animation.
You never watched the Rankin-Bass christmas specials?

The company's trademark stop motion animation process, known as "Animagic", was filmed at MOM Productions in Tokyo with supervision by Tadahito Mochinaga and associate direction by Kizo Nagashima. Besides Rudolph, Mochinaga and the rest of the Japanese puppet animation staff are also known for their partnership with Rankin/Bass on their other Animagic productions almost throughout the 1960s
