Gu Gu Ganmo

The series follows in the footsteps of manga like Doraemon and Obake no Q-Taro, with the alien Ganmo, who looks like a chicken wearing sneakers, setting out to help his adopted human friend Hanpeita. The series follows the antics of the duo as they end up in the middle of a lot of comedic mischief. One morning, Tsukune Tsukuda lets her brother's pet bird go out of spite. But later she feels bad about it, and comes home with an egg she found to give to her brother, Hanpeita. Hanpeita isn't too pleased with the big, odd-looking egg. But in the meantime it swells up, breaks its shell, and out comes a strange bird-like creature named Ganmo. It speaks like a human being, and comes to live with the Tsukudas. Not wanting to be a freeloader, Ganmo takes the initiative to run errands, clean the house, and so on, yet he blunders at everything he does. Ganmo tries to clear his reputation, but his efforts only end up causing more and more confusion. One day a charming girl moves into the house next to the Tsukudas. Her pet is a strange myna named Deja-vu. It is foppish but has a poisonous tongue. And it always teases Ganmo because of his odd looks. So the world around Ganmo gets into more and more of a mess.
