'''The Drillimation Anime''' (Japanese: ドリメーションアニメ, Hepburn: 'Dorimēshon Anime'), or just simply The Drillimation Series, is a Japanese anime television series created and written by Hiroshi Takajima and is simply the collective term for six major anime series, all of which focus on the adventures of Susumu Hori and his many friends he makes as the series progressed.

The anime began airing in Japan in 1969 starting with the Angry German Kid anime and in North America in 1975 with a Drillimation anime produced specifically in North America called the GoGang. Sony Pictures obtained the North American license to the show in 2004, and it was dubbed in English. Long before the term "anime" was coined in North America, many Western fans of the series simply referred to the anime as The Drillimation Cartoon or The Drillimation Series: The Animated Series.
