日常 S1

One of the best comedy animes out there

Nichijou is an anime about absolutely nothing, there's no plot to follow, just slapstick comedy routines. Which I love. If you're here for a plotline, then check out something else, but if you're interested in an easily digestible series then look no further.

Each episode takes place in the MCs' school or small town, with random cutaways to other places occasionally, so the vocab is fairly simple, with some random words popping up here or there (but based on context clues you can probably find it out). The majority of characters speak clearly, with one exception being a 9 year old girl who sometimes muffles her words, but if you watch this series for long enough then you get used to it lol. The vocab is probably N3 level, maybe "ambitious N4 with a dictionary".

The characters themselves are hilarious but there is some cultural knowledge that won't get localized well. If you've already dipped your toes into JP culture and anime then it shouldn't be a problem, but like the other commenter said there are some Haiku gags that would probably need some cultural knowledge for. Nothing to big though, and anything that you don't know can be easily filled in.

The animation itself is amazing for such a simple artstyle and the audio is good too. I would say that the anime is better than the original manga, even. If you want an easy to watch comedy series then definitely consider Nichijou!
