Tanaka is a remarkably lazy and listless guy who avoids physical exertion whenever possible. His main concerns are things like how to brace his head with his hands and where fresh air is available to help him nap comfortably.

(Two episodes watched):

Tanaka's laziness is the backbone of this show--it is the basic premise, upon which every joke will be based. But it just didn't strike me as all that funny. Or perhaps I should say that the jokes didn't strike me as all that funny. And without them, this show has virtually nothing to offer. I don't recall laughing even once during episode one; I may not have even smiled. Was it even possible to produce a decent anime about a lazy guy? Here's a good comparison: Sakamoto desu ga?, another anime about a guy in school with a strange habit--except Sakamoto is fairly funny, and I will watch some more of it. So, the jokes are everything. There is nothing wrong with this show except that it has little or nothing to offer the viewer in exchange for his/her time and attention. A person who has time to burn might not mind watching this show, but it quickly became clear to me that I had no reason to do so myself.
