Airing on Tokyo MX, "Asobi Asobase - workshop of fun -" centers on three seemingly ordinary middle school students: the energetic Hanako, the American transfer student Olivia (who hilariously cannot speak English), and the quiet, studious Kasumi. They create the "Pastimers Club" to play simple games, but their activities quickly devolve into bizarre and absurd competitions. The show's genius lies in its contrast between the cute, pastel art style and the loud, often aggressive, and surreal slapstick humor. Each game, from thumb wrestling to homemade board games, becomes an extreme battle of wits and wills, filled with exaggerated facial expressions and screaming. This brilliant, high-energy comedy series has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.
