A lethargic, empathetic road drama about finding one’s parents — for everyone who just wants to laze about! Having resigned itself to the fact that it will just end up on someone’s plate, Gudetama just wants to be lazy all the time. But, swept up by the go-getting, overbearing chick Shakipiyo, it leaves the refrigerator and heads out into the world. Together, these polar opposites go on an adventure to find their mother!

Full of heart

This show was hilariously chaotic and funny — but also surprisingly heartfelt when I least expected it. The plot kind of loses itself in the middle — a bunch of random things happen and I'm not entirely sure I can suspend my disbelief during them, but I just kind of had to remind myself that no one is watching this for the masterful plot. The ending is fantastic — and hits surprisingly hard.

But overall I just loved how relatable Gudetama's laziness is. It's hilarious. This series is just good vibes.

Oddly Satisfying

I don't watch many animations or animes but really enjoyed this series. It's super cute and heartwarming. The sighing Gudetama with its gelatin-like mass that constantly jiggled and the energetic Shakipiyo with its lone angry eyebrow are both really adorable, and the voices for these characters are spot-on. I never imagined I'd end up crying over a chick and egg story but that's exactly what happened. My only big gripe is that I'd prefer animation-only rather than a mix of animation and human actors.
