12 episodes (32 minutes) of fuzzy cutesiness in a surreal stop motion universe of guinea pig cars.
(Humans are live actors inside their cars and plastic figures outside their vehicles.)
It starts innocently with a few slice of life incidents before spinning into pure absurdity.
As usual, I preferred the life around town more than the movie references.
Then again, I love the absurd (more than the toddlers of its target audience).
Screw it, I’ll take them all!
Give me more!
Like all great children’s shows, it’s written for both adults and children.
By series end, the cars have distinct personalities, without saying a single word.
The show is a testament to the expansive potential of shear creativity.
It could be the cutest show you’ll ever watch!

The world moves so quickly now. Asian shows took real effort to discover (much less watch) during college (I didn’t bother). Now this children’s show is distributed on the world’s largest streaming service, just a few months after airing in Japan.
