Kodomo no Omocha

Introduction >>>

Kodomo no Omocha is an indefinable, unconventional anime with a permanent sugar-rush. Typically for viewers with an aquired taste for truly unique anime, it is one of the few series that is engaging and lovable from the very start, including the opening theme. This anime is hilarious to the point that my sides were cramping from laughter. Kurata Sana, a talanted and vivacious young girl (11 years old, to be exact), is followed through her life in the fast lane filled with endless acting gigs (usually as the nationally-renowned child star of "Zenjiro's Kodomo no Omocha") and her classroom capers. Sana lives in an animated but firmly-rooted home with "Mama" (Mariko), Rei (her manager, boyfriend, and "pimp"), Shimura (their elderly maid), and Maro-chan, the pet squirrel who inhabits the outrageous hats that Mama wears.

Sana is a friendly girl but is undeniably hyperactive. This is understandable, seeing as her schedule gives her very little resting time, from her steady job in "Zenjiro's Kodomo no Omocha" to commercials to TV dramas to... oh yeah, school. Luckily, she has been able to make friends such as Sugita Aya, Ohki Tsuyoshi, and (eventually) Hayama Akito. Also from work she is friends with Zenjiro-san, her hairdresser, Kamura Naozumi, and many of the other child actors she works with. At home, things are pretty constant, although for others it would seem chaotic. In example, Mama rides around in a little red car and wears exotic head ornaments, occasionally bonking some annoying person on the head with a toy mallet. However Sana lives with supportive loved ones who always are willing to help her in their own ways.

To any person who has never seen this show, all of this information is either strange or confusing. Therefore, I've decided to post character summaries for the main characters. I may add other characters later but these should give you a good start =) Enjoy!
