Pikotarou no Lullaby Lullaby is, at its core, a VERY Japanese show. I don't think it should even be considered an anime. This would be one of those shows that'd be in the intermission of a TV series.
Basically, the anime is about bedtime stories, with their very own 'Pikotarou twist' to them. Some of these short stories are globally known, so they're more entertaining to watch. However, due to the cultural boundaries of Japan, many stories have Japanese folk tale based in them, so most people wouldn't get the references implemented into them. Personally, I knew all of the stories (so far at least) so
...
I find the show entertaining. However, when I introduced it to a friend, he found it extremely boring. Taking his words "This sounds more like a Japanese podcast. It doesn't look like an anime, sound like an anime. Why is this even on kiss?"
Art-2
The artist is certainly better than me, so it isn't a 1, but there really is no animation. One background 2-4 character models, 2 or 3 poses of said character, and that's all there is to the show's illustrations.
Sound-5
At least Pikotarou is trying. He does perform each character very well, but I do think only having one voice actor is hindering the show. As for the ending, I love it, but it's too short-just like the show.
Character-8
Pikotarou plays each character as that character-meaning he's doing well. I don't think anymore could be said in this category.
Enjoyment-7
This certainly isn't an anime, but that doesn't hinder it from being entertaining.
In conclusion, this was very similar to peeping life. It isn't an anime (which keeps it from being good) but it's good comedy (if you get it.) However, don't get your hopes up if you want to watch is. It's short and sweet, but IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY. :)
