A 3 minute pilot for a series based in the comic Usagi Yojimbo by Stan Sakai, adapted into a Saturday Morning Cartoon in the same vein of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, albeit with a somewhat more serious tone.
According to the imdb trivia, the reason this project was ultimately cancelled was due the failure of the Bucky O'Hare cartoon, which is a shame, because kid me would have liked watching this show back then in the 90s.
Then again, this age of cheesy (But incredibly charming) Saturday Morning Cartoons was slowly coming to its end due the apparition of far more ambitious works such as the Batman animated series by Bruce Timm, and the anime craze that started with the world-wide success of the Pokemon franchise.
Usagi Yojimbo was eventually adapted into a cgi series in the year 2022.
