From the creator of nichijou, this surreal-slapstick series revolves around a penniless college student, Midori Nagumo, who lives in an ordinary city filled with not-quite-ordinary people. And as this reckless girl runs about, she sets the city in motion.

Midori is in a bit of a bind. She is in debt, and her landlady is trying to shake her down for unpaid rent. Her best friend refuses to loan her cash since she’s wised up to her tricks.

Maybe some bullying would help. Or a bit of petty theft? Neither is sustainable. Maybe getting a job would settle things... But working means less time for fun adventures in the big city...

A Successor to Nichijou

In CITY, Keiichi Arawi perfects his comedy craft and style. A perfect blend of moé cuteness and cartoon-y kinetic energy. If you loved Nichijou for its surreal and out-there humor, then you will appreciate CITY, as it is far more streamlined and well-crafted, from his character design, world-building, and lattice of interwoven gags.
