I don't know if you'll like this show. There's a good chance you won't, but I can promise you you'll be entertained at the very least, and I personally adore it.
This is a very off-putting show. The art style is unconventional (being mostly CG and prefab assets), it has no plot, and only three real characters to speak of. So why do I like it so much?
Well, it's simply fun as all hell. The humour is, in my opinion, great. The improv segments are incredibly charming, the characters are fun and charming (with each having their own interesting traits), and the unpredictable nature of the show just makes it fun to watch!
The show is divided into three segments, all of which have a very interesting premise.
The first is the round-table discussion, which is self explanatory, the three fairies s…

CGI. It's everywhere in anime nowadays, and some of them are made entirely out of it. Curiously, CGI exists in many forms, such as VRchat-based and MikuMikuDance-based anime. One of such MMD productions is Gdgd Fairies. This anime shows us the mental struggles of three little fairies called PikuPiku, ShiruShiru and KoroKoro (or more accurately, pkpk, shrshr and krkr), friends who gather everyday on a giant tree in the Fairy Forest to play around. In a formulaic but-not-quite manner, almost every episode starts with the fairies getting together for tea time, talking about their day, fun things they did or trivial things they've noticed about their daily lives. This always sparks a small discussion which goes completely off rails once their minds start brainstorming all kinds of solutions to…

gdgd Faeries is a bizarre comedy. In the sense that I couldn't find a Studio listed for it. It was directed by Sugahara Souta, who's done some stuff I've never heard of & written by Ishidate Koutarou, who has also done some work on things I've never heard of. I have no idea what to expect, so let's dive right in.
Story:
We follow three faeries, Pikupiku, Shirushiru & Korokoro as they boldly hang around a forest and chat. There are four basic types of gags in this anime. In the first, the three faeries sit around a stump with tea and just have strange comedic conversations on random topics. In the second, they go to the hyperbolic time chamber... I mean “room of mental and time” which resembles but is legally distinct from the similar area of empty space from Dragonball. In this room they…

Comedy in anime can feel tired at times. Even the best series the genre has to offer will sometimes fall back on tropes that have been done a thousand times, whether in parodying them or outright playing them straight faced. That's not to say comedy anime is bad for this reason (it's one of my favorite genres), but sometimes the idea of watching a series completely out of left field in its comedy and presentation can feel refreshing and be a nice break from the same old stuff.
And this is why I love gdgd Fairies, a show that has legitimately made me laugh out loud harder and more frequently than any other anime series out there. The simple episode structure, excellently crafted jokes, unique visual style, likable characters, and overall fun atmosphere of this series work towards my consid…

Holy crap! I mean who thought that an anime with poor CG graphics, bland setting straight out of saturday mornings girls' cartoon and an animation studio nobody has ever heard of, could actually be kinda... good?
In my case, it all begun with a youtube video "Piku Shiru Can't Stop", which is a mash-up of a Red Hot Chili Peppers song and gdgd Fairies. I found it strangely entertaining and annoying at the same, and after a while I noticed that the 2nd season was among the on-going series. I watched some random episode and was pleasantly surprised how amusing it was, and right after got hooked on the 1st season.
To make it clear, this is no My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic kinda series that was targeted to little girls, but somehow grown men got around watching it. Gdgd fairies' forte is…
