About The Tatami Galaxy Specials

Looking for background on The Tatami Galaxy Specials (Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei Specials)? This comedy series by Madhouse (2010) starts out like this. In short: Watashi, Seitarou Higuchi, Akashi, Ozu, and Ryouko Hanuki share various stories about a submarine that can travel through land, each one attempting to outdo the others in terms of creativity. Ranging from an adventure to stop the melting of the ice caps, to a quest to stop perverts from spying on girls, and to a fishing trip, no topic is off-limits.

With comedy at the core, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands.

It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series.
