Let's Watch A Cartoon!

[xyzzysqrl]

So a friend of mine noticed I was feeling down (I was telegraphing it hard) and linked me over to a strange little Japanese cartoon. Originally airing in two-minute long episodic chunks on a music-information show, "Inazma Delivery" is the tale of a squooshy, easily-flustered pig fellow who works at a delivery outlet. One day a package is delivered with an illegible address, containing ~something~ wearing a kigurumi of a shark...

I started watching this out of raw fascination. By three minutes in I had big goggle-eyed of "WTF Am I Seeing". Then I started the hysterical giggling.

By 17 minutes in, I was COMPLETELY EMOTIONALLY INVESTED in the plot.

When the video was over, I broke a personal rule of mine and left a "Season 2, please!" comment on Youtube.

Join me, won't you, in enjoying Inazma Delivery Season 1. (Note: Actual episodes start 30 seconds in. The opening is a preview trailer.)

Starts slow but by the time you hit that final chase scene it's edge-of-the-seat gripping. I am totally naming my next MMO guild "Let's English".

I'll take "things nobody says on the internet" for 500.

I think my favorite thing is that multiple times you can hear people clearly pronounce "OH MUH GEE."

That was trippy in all the best ways, and I am glad I have the season two post saved so I can continue with this series.
