My Deer Friend Nokotan
On Tokyo MX, BS Nippon TV
A high-energy absurdist comedy about a delinquent-turned-honor-student whose life spirals into delightful chaos when she befriends a mysterious antlered girl, built on slapstick and surreal humor rather than plot.
Koshi Torako has everyone fooled. Her classmates see her as the perfect honor student, unaware of her secret delinquent past. But her new picturesque school life is thrown into chaos when she bumps into Shikanoko Noko, a girl with antlers! Mayhem seems to follow this strange doe-eyed girl. Who, or what, is she?
