Given the amount of leisure time I spend watching anime, I talk about it very sparingly and then only with sympathizers of the cause. However, I'm finding to talk about this particular anime as much as I possibly can.
Recently, I've been watching Moyashimon: Tales of Agriculture. Yes, that's right. It's an anime about agriculture. But then again, there was already an anime about baking bread, a popular series for that matter, so I suppose this is not too far astray from the mold.
Speaking of mold... The story of Moyashimon revolves around Sawaki Tadayasu, who appears to be an ordinary college student at an agricultural university in Tokyo. Sawaki however is far from ordinary. He actually possesses a very special ability to see, understand, and interact with microbes (sound kinda like golden hands?) such as yeast or mold (aha! now you get the mold segway). The microbes he sees are also happen to be really really kawaii~!!! (^_^)
Here are the absolutely adorable opening and ending videos.
(Tangent Begin)
On another note, the ending song happens to be done by POLYSICS, which
is a pretty awesome band. Although this is completely unrelated to Moyashimon, here is a video of my favorite POLYSICS songs:
(Tangent End)
Strangeness aside, I'm already finding this anime quite entertaining. Watching the professor suddenly suck on the anus of a fermented bird (dont's ask, just watch the first episode) just made me desperately reach for my sides in laughter. The missing person bondage researcher with athlete's foot (again, just watch) was also fantastic. Plus, the various microbes are just really cute so I'll keep on watching.
On a totally different but anime-related note... very very excited for the return of Haruhi and the S.O.S. brigade with the new season of The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi coming up this Spring, but not so excited for the new season of Code Geass.
