Kogepan

I'm sure you are familiar with anime about magical girls. You have probably seen anime featuring giant mech suits. There's been anime about girls competing in Olympics-style contests; anime about librarians; even an anime about a girl's baseball team.

But how about an anime about a burnt bakery bun?

This is what Kogepan is. Kogepan is a red bean paste bakery bun that ended up getting burnt and now no one wants to buy him. The series of 10 episodes recounts Kogepan's origins and explores various friends that he has made.

When he drinks milk, he gets drunk. He tries to run away, but that doesn't solve his problems. He even ends up with another bakery bun that has a crush on him.

Each episode is only around four minutes long. It's actually a good series, especially when it's message is about everyone being equal. Strange series, but worth watching.
