I’m struggling to find the right words to capture the essence of this anime about a deer-human blend from the masterminds behind Spy x Family

The Chronicles of Nokotan, my Deer Companion is an animated series that might come across as a whimsical tale a comrade would jest with you about, yet it is an authentic and incredibly fantastical production.

Describing The Chronicles of Nokotan can prove to be quite perplexing. It centers around a teenager who embodies both deer and human traits, with a school society aiming to oust her. The series showcases genuine deer snapshots, computer-generated imagery, pyrotechnics, and an infectious anime intro track. It amalgamates distinct components, evoking memories of Pop Team Epic and Nichijou, breaking all norms with its eccentricity.

The official overview sheds more light on the narrative: “Koshi Torako, a high school student, stumbles upon a girl with antlers entangled in electrical cables. By aiding Shikanoko, a unique and antlered lass, Torako’s existence takes a sharp turn. Thus commences a voyage of Damsel Meets Doe between a reformed rebel and an enigmatic deer-like entity.” Despite the complexity, embracing the unpredictable nature of such a show is the best course of action.
