Pugyuru · review
Pugyuru's entire identity is being extremely strange and being full of absurd comedy that strives to make you laugh through how weird and unexpected the situations the characters go through are. If that's the kinda thing you could see yourself laughing at I think Pugyuru is totally worth a shot! Its whole runtime is like a little longer than your average anime episode so its no huge investment. It made me laugh with the stupid and nonsensical situations and made me say "what the fuck xD" multiple times so I think this anime did what it stood out to do. Cheko's stupid, never changing, faceand amorphous nature is so funny xD
Technically the anime isn't impressive. The animation is pretty cheap and shitty but the voice acting is surprisingly solid. The voice actors expressive and silly voices really add to the absurdity of all these stupid gags in my opinion. The characters pretty shallow but I think that's fine. As long as they mesh well with the gags I think their one dimensional personalities can be forgiven. You don't go into a 3 minute long dumb gag anime for the deep characters anyway
If you like stupid, weird, shitposty humor I think this anime would be right up your alley! However if you don't like this kinda humor I could see some finding the nonsensical nature of this show off putting and rating it poorly. The anime isn't particularly special or innovative but I'm happy I had a little laugh with it. At the very least the absurdity of it all made me laugh more than some more traditional comedy anime, albeit with less substance to the actual show as a whole.
