I’m generally not a huge slice of life fan so I was just wondering if it’s all a bunch of different stories of the same character that are different each episode or if it has some story development to it. I also wanna know what people like and dislike about this series before I start it.

No real story arc per say, most of the story are in flashbacks, then and now kind of situation. other than that its the usual mundane but cute slice of life stuff.

I personally love this series for its heart-melting wholesomeness and relaxing atmosphere.

Is an introspective story about inner grow.

I recommend to always ignore the "slice of life" tag, it leads to complacency.

Usually the “slice of life” tag is wrongly applied on these sites, but this is as iyashikei and SoL as it gets. There are developments, external and internal, but this is a SoL first and foremost. Very atmospheric, comfy show with a bit of melancholy.

Fuji backstory is where most of the story elements at, the events happening in every episode are in present time.

@Dellio_man I got bored watching this one but will manage to the end. I was expecting some real "interesting" storytelling but this one failed to deliver. The first episode was the best. She finds the Tanuki in the rain. He scribbles her a message, she's intrigued, takes him home and then ... that's it?

The mystery of who this creature is, where he's from, how is he so smart? We may never know ... 🤪

This anime is good for me, I have OCD, anxiety, and schizophrenia so something nice and slow without any drama or bad stuff that happens is something that helps calm me down. I am easily triggered by certain shows and this one is non triggering to me.
