Nobody talks about this one. A newborn baby somehow ends up raising a middle-aged man through pure comedic chaos, flipping every domestic setup you've ever seen on its head. The joke never gets old because the show never stops finding new ways to make you laugh at the impossible absurdity of a literal infant being the responsible one. It's dumb in the best way possible, the kind of show that knows exactly what it is and leans all the way in. If you want comedy that doesn't waste your time explaining itself, that just runs with the bit and trusts you to keep up, this is it.
Pan no Akachan (TV) is a 2026 comedy short from CHOCOLATE.
