Another funny anime called ... Kobato


Summary:
Hanato Kobato arrives in a park one day with her stuffed dog companion Ioryogi with the wish to go to a certain somewhere, but to do that, she has to fill a special bottle using the hearts of people who have been hurt and healed. Before she can even do that though, she first has to get the bottle, and to get the bottle, she has to pass Ioryogi’s test of whether she can live in this world. The problem is that Kobato is rather naive and lacks some common sense. When a woman accidentally leaves her some garbage to dispose of, Kobato decides to let the crows at it because a sign told her to reduce the amount of garbage thrown away. When two guys try to pick her up on the street, Kobato goes along with them until Ioryogi blasts them with his flame breath. This angers the guys, and Kobato is saved thanks to a stranger who scares off the first two. Later that day, Kobato finds herself helping at a nabe stand, and even though she doesn’t know how to prepare nabe, what she cooks turns out to be surprisingly delicious. Afterward, Kobato comes across a grandmother with a crying baby, and she decides to try singing for the child. Kobato sings so well that not only does the baby stop crying, but a crowd also gathers and pulls her away because they were so impressed. It’s not until later that the old lady finds Kobato again and properly thanks her, and Ioryogi finally decides to pass Kobato and give her the bottle.
