Synopsis:

In a world where handcrafted figures possess a surprising degree of sentience, the everyday routines of existence take on unexpected complexity. This series centers on Kiiro-kun, a gentle clay figure who finds solace in quiet moments, particularly when sharing space with a friendly pig. However, this tranquility is disrupted by Akairo-kun, whose mischievous nature leads to playful but sometimes fraught interactions.

The narrative explores themes of friendship, boundaries, and the subtle dynamics that arise between individuals, even those formed from simple materials. Set within a charmingly rendered environment, the anime offers a gentle and introspective look at navigating interpersonal relationships and the consequences of impulsive actions, all framed through the unique perspective of these animated clay characters. It's an exploration of small moments and how they shape connections.
