Nobody talks about this one. A two-episode sprint through absurdist sci-fi where the jokes land faster than the plot can explain itself, built on the principle that a good punchline matters more than making sense. Hisaichi's comedy timing turns confusion into the actual entertainment instead of apologizing for it. If you've ever wanted a show that trusts you to keep up with the chaos instead of holding your hand through the setup, this is what that feels like.
The Underground People live in an overcrowded cavern and want to break out and take over the surface world, but they never quite pull it off. The second episode, Christmas Aid, follows the dim-witted Undergrounders through another failed escape attempt, this time set to music by the popular group Yukadan. Two unrelated Ishii Hisaichi stories, 101 Ninja and Ken-chan's Space Exploration Adventure, also appear on the first volume. A two-episode sci-fi comedy OVA, it gets its laughs from schemes that keep falling short.
