It follows an office worker who buys a peculiar pet and gets the chance to travel to another world.
The first episodes of the series are very promising.
Sasaki and Peeps (Sasaki to Pii-chan) is this season’s fresh anime series based on the manga by Kantoku. It started airing on January 5, and while other big premieres seem to outshine it, this anime is still worth your attention.
Office worker gets isekaied
Sasaki is a middle-aged office worker who’s not entirely satisfied with his life. His job isn’t well-paid even though he’s happy that he at least has one. On top of that, Sasaki has no one in his life, and he’s feeling a bit lonely. Watching his colleagues share pictures of their pets gives him an idea: what if he gets one of his own?
That’s how Sasaki ends up in a pet shop, where an adorable bird attracts his attention. The said bird turns out to be Peeps, a creature from another world who is about to change Sasaki’s life.
The first two episodes of Sasaki and Peeps are out, so you can already get an idea of what the series is going to be like. And judging by the beginning, it’s going to be highly entertaining.
Stunning voice acting performance
The first thing fans point out while watching Sasaki and Peeps is its incredible cast. They say the anime sounds absolutely amazing, and while initially hearing Peeps talking in Aoi Yuuki’s (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Undead Unluck) voice makes you giggle, you find yourself enjoying it soon.
Fans also praise Tomokazu Sugita (Goblin Slayer, Mushoku Tensei) and Akari Kitou (Demon Slayer, Shadows House) for their performance.
The premiere episode was longer than usual: it was 50 minutes instead of the typical 20+, and this is a great decision. While the exposition of Sasaki and Peeps is quite intriguing by itself, the second half of the episode is where the main conflict is really introduced.
A number of fans mentioned that they started getting a bit bored in the first half of the episode, so they are content that it didn’t end there.
Another wonderful thing about this anime is the main protagonist. Fans are getting a bit tired of teenagers stealing the show, and it’s extremely refreshing to have a middle-aged protagonist. A simple office worker, who is easy to relate to: he just wants to live a good life and have a companion.
So if you’ve been busy watching Solo Leveling or A Sign of Affection this January, it’s your sign to try out something new and watch Sasaki and Peeps. And there’s a high chance that you won’t be disappointed.
