Smart and funny

Uramichi Oniisaaaaan.... Zzzzz I'm so tired dude. Zzzz it's the morning again...

A slice of life where an emotionally unstable gymnast running a children show with his coworkers who have just as many crises in life as him.

This was such a refreshing and hilarious show. Every episode, I just cracked up at how Uramichi and his coworkers complaining to these kids and teaching them about how life sucks. There wasn't really any structure to the story, just these characters in different skits talking about various aspects of lives.

This was brilliant because it was very relatable to the audiences, who have jobs and constantly have to put on a show at work. In a way, I can see how the show is the author making fun of himself. He's struggling to have ideas for his show, so he's making fun of how his desperation. Anyway, each character in the show had their own struggle, and audiences will resonate with at least some of the abysmal and depressing remarks from these characters.

To add more salts to the wound, the innocent kids in the show, although adorable, made seemingly innocent comments that pierces through our main characters. It's a hilarious way of showing how obviously people try to put on a happy face that a kid can even see through.

I enjoyed this show a lot, but honestly as the show went on, the jokes became a bit less funny.

Overall, a smart and wicked show that is both funny and sadly relatable. 8.5/10.

This show is pretty funny

You know the Krusty the Clown show from the Simpsons. This is basically that. The main character is Uramichi. He is the host of a little kids show. He is deadpan and very dead inside. He hates his life.

This is hard to watch. 30yr with dead end job can relate

The show is perfect. He is working with kids, and the kids are asking him the most brutal questions "why are you so old and don't have kids", "hope and meaning in life"- not out of criticism or being a push over- but because they are kids and they don't know any better.

By confronting these questions without the easy way out that he does in his life with colleagues, family and friends, Uramichi has to look into itself and go through a journey. I am hooked!
