Toutotsu ni Egypt Shin

A very cute, laid back short comedy with a pleasant vibe and great characters. It's actually educational to an extent if you look up who the different gods are and what their purpose is, so you can learn something from it too. The animation is very well done and incorporates the Egyptian Hieroglyphic style into an anime style nicely. The gags aren't really the laugh-out-loud gut laugh kind of jokes, but they have a subtle charm that's very cute. I always loved ancient Egypt when I was a kid and this was fun to revisit some of what I loved about it.

Fun and entertaining short anime :)

Although the episodes and the series aren't very long, this is a really cute & entertaining anime. I really like how there's a humorous story about the daily life of ancient Egyptian deities, with a touch of modernity. The characters have really memorable personalities, everyone has their distinct behaviors etc. The animation style of the gods & goddesses is a bit abstract/simple but containing the "essence" of each one.

I'd recommend it to everyone who likes ancient Egypt theme, short comedy or slice-of-life genre.

I'm waiting to watch the sequel as although it's different from most series I watched before, this will ... always be a nice anime I'll enjoy.

My favorite characters are Anubis (he's also my favorite Egyptian deity in general), Thoth and Bastet. Wenet is cute too!

Toutotsu is the type of educational anime that has always appeared over the years. This time, Egyptian gods are the protagonists of this definitely hilarious story. Anubis, Toth, Seth, Horus and other characters are eccentric and have peculiarities that please and convey a good feeling of pleasure with short animes, a difficult thing lately, since most of these shows appeal to anime clichés. Toutotsu manages to be exclusive and independent when it comes to the diversity of episodes. All are well produced and have very good scenes.

Making a comparison with Olympia Kyklos, Toutotsu can be defined as "The Olympia of Egypt", where the culture and ... habits of the African country are shown, based on the ancient Egyptian religion. In addition, the practice of mummification, ceramics and pizza are great historical references, which define the entire ancient civilization very well. The anime did not hesitate. In episodes of 6 minutes, there was always a god to be presented with some more characteristic of animes. This connection shows a playful and harmonious perspective. And yet, anime manages to stand out very well because of that. It is not a famous show, nor will it be remembered by many, but it pays off, for a new experience with short animes.

Finally, Toutotsu is a show that I recommend to everyone. It is not significant with the shape it has, nor will it bring anything new (of course, Egyptian culture will certainly be new to many), but it is a really profitable and heated experience. For more anime with these cultural objectives. They certainly need to gain more space in Japanese productions!
