Zenmai Zamurai was a short subject children's cartoon created by Momoko Maruyama and Ryōtarō Kuwamoto. It aired daily in the mornings and afternoons on NHK Educational TV in Japan. Two short features were shown in the mornings and afternoons both five minutes long. Its exclusion from the 2010-11 NHK programming schedule signifies the end of its run on the station, but will still be shown in reruns on their Hi-Vision BS premium channel.
