Bananya

Bananya... It's just Bananya I guess lol. How to write a review out of it... It is so hard O.o... Let me think.

Let's first introduce what the anime is about:

The anime -can I even say anime to it- is about bananas. In the bananas are living cats. Humans cannot see them because they only appear when they are gone. It is quite an interesting idea. If every banana contains a cat.. How are we supposed to eat bananas without eating cats... That gets to the wrong topic. Let's continue the story of "Bananya".

Each episode is very short and tells the story of a short adventure in the life of Bananya. Since the Bananyas cannot talk -or we cannot understand them-, the narrator is telling us the story. It is a cute way of saying that there might be life in the things around us. I mean, who doesn't like cats... and bananas??

"Bananya" is an anime for any age but I think it is better suited for children. Bananya isn't alone though, he has many friends which are introduced in the story.

You cannot watch the story with clear thinking: "This just makes no sense". It shouldn't make sense. If it is like there really are Bananyas, we should have known...right??! When we peal a banana, we don't want a cat to pop out of nowhere... So let's pretend out bananas aren't Bananyas. Furthermore, who cleans our bathrooms when the Bananyas are doing anything they want?? Alright, let's not think about that.

I watched this anime / cartoon / whatever you want to call this, with a little child. I think he enjoyed it very much, so I can suggest you, if you have any children you can watch it with them. Just make sure, they don't fear that they eat a Bananya when they want to eat a banana! The narrator tries to give the story a funny touch by acting quite surprised which is getting children to laugh. So you don't have to worry about your children. Just lay back and enjoy the bit free time of no worries.

If you are bored and don't know what to watch and you don't want to watch some heavily anime with a lot of plot or violence, here you go: "Bananya". Help yourself and lay down...(and maybe sleep in). It is very like a little story which you get told before you go to sleep as a child. I don't know why but it is a bit of relaxing watching it.

I give this all a 6/10 because it had a cute story and a nice idea but I don't like the voice actor of the narrator very much. It was a bit annoying for me to listen. Also it doesn't really made me that much joy. It is good for children though.

It was very hard for me to write the review about this anime / cartoon since I cannot say so much about it. But I hope you still liked it and give it try, watching it!
