A dog that's too dumb to know it's dumb, and a man too tired to care, making glass in the background while life just happens around them. There is nothing here to chase you. The entire show moves at the speed of an Akita deciding whether a nap is worth getting up for. You watch twenty-two episodes of someone feeding a dog, blowing glass, and both of them forgetting why they started, and somehow that becomes the thing you need most.

Muco is an Akita dog who is not especially bright, and who lives happily alongside owner Komatsu-san, a glassblower with a glass-making workshop up in the mountains. This second season of the short-format series, adapted from Takayuki Mizushina's manga, continues to follow the cheerful everyday routine the two share. The slice-of-life episodes stay small and gentle, centered on a dog and a craftsman spending their days together.
