Shikanoko Nokonoko Koshitantan
(One episode watched):
As I have said numerous times before, humor is what happens when we are led to expect one thing, but something else occurs, and it makes sense in an unexpected way. We definitely get plenty of unexpected things in Shikanoko-, but in most cases how they make sense is beyond me. Shikanoko can smash a hole in a wall with her antlers--and that makes sense because ____________? And her antler-sense allows her to discern Toshi's secret past because _________? With the jokes largely falling flat, this show needs to tell a story instead. But the only plot I was detecting was an absurdist tale of an annoying, if not insane, girl tormenting another. Right from the start I detected a distinct lack of entertainment coming my way from Shikanoko-. The use of live-action footage and stills of deer was odd, but again not really funny. I can only guess that at one point there was a fairly popular manga, but I am at a loss to explain how that might have been.
