Ankama describes Welsh & Shedar:
In the DOFUS world, Welsh enjoys a quiet life as a kindhearted cook in Brassica. That peace ends when the dragon Asalar and the hero Joris arrive, drawing him into a conflict involving Queen Zabelle and her son, Shedar. As Welsh ventures beyond his familiar surroundings, he uncovers truths that could change the course of his life.
The production brings Ankama’s French-created Krosmoz universe together with Japanese animation talent, with animation produced in Japan in collaboration with Studio Massket.
