日常 / Everyday

 



Nichijou is a sol with a lot of over-the-top humor. There's a lot of insane stuff going on here, all of it combined with a soothing atmosphere. I feel like the best material however is used in the first half of the episodes and the other half feels a little bit repetitive, though the Nano's story having some closure about her wish to go to school and be more human was really nice to watch and wrapped things up great.

The show is mostly a set of sketches divided between Hakase, Sakamato and Nano in one side and  Mio, Yuuko and Mai on the other. There's also lots of other supporting characters that have their own little stories here and there which is always amusing.

There's a lot of Buddhism references here and lots and lots of wordplay, so if you're watching this with English subs on you'll be missing a good number of jokes but you don't actually need to get all the jokes to really enjoy this. The characters are adorable and fun to follow around. All in all a very entertaining show.
