Hazedon (ハゼドン, also known as Chief Joker in English) is a fantasy, comedy anime series that aired for the first time on the Japanese television channel Fuji TV on October 5th, 1972 until March 29th, 1973. It was the first show produced by Sunrise.

The story is about a goby fish named Hazedon, who travels the world with his best friends, Puyan, a blowfish, and Shiran, a mermaid.

Structure

The show is structured by one season of 26 episodes. Each episode has a runtime of 30 minutes, except the last episode, which has a runtime of 22 minutes.
