Makibao is a shonen anime dedicated for kids and preteens. However,be sure to watch makibao alone because of the show's nude art. I enjoyed watching this as a kid. I gave it an 8 because of the good story.
The story was great. A typical underdog character that works hard to succeed his dreams of meeting a beloved one. The story consists of more on comedy than drama.
The art was a little bit shocking. WIKIPEDIA confirmed that this is a shone anime but yet the main character, Makibao , is practically showing his pubes. Maybe the art is designed with naturalsm.
The art is depicted with a particular style that is hard to describe. Know shin-chan? Maybe they're related.
The sound was okay.
The characters blended wall. A protagonist, antagonists, a heroine and supporting characters. This is one of the rarest shows that make the leading role an animal. But it did not matter anyway for the harmony was smooth.
I really enjoyed their antics but no overpowering was done.
Overall I say that this is a good normal anime (good,normal? what's that?) It is worth killing your boredome.
