Dogtato-kun is one of the many half-animal/half-vegetable inhabitants of Veggietown! Along with Croconion, Cucumbird, Hedgetato and the rest of the gang, Dogtato-kun and Veggietown's edible dwellers will have fun, fall in love, and make new friends, all without losing a leaf!
I really don't think there are many series as well suited for each other, as are Ocha-ken and Dogtato-kun. Both are filled with positive morals for the young ones, and will crack a smile on your face due to the strange animation and characters.
Ocha ken is a series made out of short episodes, the same way that each episode of Jagainu-kun is divided into small stories. Ocha ken concludes with a small moral of the story, whereas in Jagainu-kun, the viewer has to figure it out for himself.
Both Jagainu-kun and Ocha ken are cute and suitable for younger children. If you liked one of them, you will surely like the other one too.
If you liked the short and episodic styles and the canine protagonists with a twist of one of these series then it is worth taking a look at the other one. Both are very easy watching and light-hearted so if you liked the gentle humour of one then you are likely to enjoy the other.
After accidentally falling into the oven as he was being removed, Kogepan, a piece of red bean bread, became burned. Unlike the other breads such as Kireipan and Ichigopan, Kogepan is somber and has a dark sheen. However, he’s joined by others that are burned just like he is, and together all of the baked goods have fun together talking about life and even taking a trip to the beach.
Both Kogepan and Ocha-ken teach small life lessons through very short episodes, encouraging the viewers to be themselves and find their place in life. Both are made for small children and are cute.
Both of these series have a similar sort of 'cute factor'. If you liked the gentle nature of one, and found yourself smiling at it then you may well enjoy the other. Both have a reasonable dose of humour about them, and since both are quite short episode durations, it's easy to just watch one when you have a spare five minutes.
One day, the chess-playing crocodile Gena receives a delivery at his humble abode. However, he has no idea that inside the box of oranges is a furry stowaway! With no memory of himself or how he got there, the creature – not quite a monkey, dog or other standard animal - is named Cheburashka by his new friend. Alongside Gena, Cheburashka will visit the zoo, play games and have other fun adventures along the way.
Ocha-ken might be aimed at younger children, but both it and Churashka are tales of cute creatures and their adventures.
Ocha-ken and Cheburashka Arere? are both short anime aimed at children. If you fancy something cute, and innocent with animal protagonists then you may well enjoy both of these.
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Afro-ken! He can blend into a flock of sheep, be a makeshift tree in an orchard, act as a stunt double for beer foam, and even replace the clouds in the sky; all without ever saying a word! Watch Afro-ken as he skips through the streets of Japan, bounds through fields of cotton candy, and fends off caveman attackers in ancient times; all without breaking a sweat! But can he manage to avoid being struck by lightning yet again?
Ocha-ken and Afro-ken are both fairly pointless but cute shorts about a Japanese merchandise character. Personally, I think Afro-ken is a lot more strange and hilarious than the much more tame and timid Ocha-ken, but regardless, if you liked one you'd probably like the other.
One day, a young kitten was on a walk with her mother and siblings; but soon she became separated from her kin. Struggling to find her way home, the kitten soon ran into a young boy named Yohei and his mother; and out of pity, the duo takes the kitten home with them. Unfortunately they discover that they are unable to keep pets in their home, and thus begin a quest to find her a new place to live. From playing with shoelaces to being washed, the cute kitten named Chi will have fun and get to know her new family – though all she really wants is to make it home to her feline mother.
Though Ocha-Ken and Chi's Sweet Home are both primarily about animals, Ocha-Ken is much more obviously aimed at children, with short, simpl, slightly-insipid storylines. Chi's Sweet Home, on the other hand, while adorable is also a bit more entertaining, showing things from the kitten's point of view with the lack of a narrator. But if you're just looking for an anime with adorable characters, short episodes (3-5 minutes) and simple storylines, both are equally satisfying.
