Twenty years of silent vigil in a quiet field abruptly ends when a scarecrow awakens after a powerful storm. This unlikely animation marks the beginning of a unique existence for the straw figure, who finds himself navigating a world he never knew. He forms an unexpected bond with the daughter of the man who crafts scarecrows, experiencing life through her perspective and the familiar rhythms of their rural community.

    This is a very wholesome anime. It’s barely talked about anywhere it’s not the best but it is a children’s anime very wholesome very positive. The premise is very unique it’s about a scarecrow being sentient he can’t move or talk but he can think after standing there for 20 years he gets replaced and put into a barn. There’s more to it than that like there are people who come and visit him from time to time and him wondering how the train in the distance works or how it looks etc. he enjoyed being a scarecrow but didn’t like the fact he wasreplaced. in the barn a heavy storm approaches knocking a tree down and thunder strikes at the same time causing him to be able to move somehow it’s not explained how exactly he was inside the barn the tree fell and when the thunder struck the tree and him were pulled out of it by a wall of light or something which made him alive. A while goes by and he becomes he towns like workshop guy he can fix anything and in some occasions some of the stuff he fixes come back to life anything that he fixes that has eyes, body, hands etc. just turns to life which doesn’t happen as much. nnThe animation style of this anime is… odd but it works 3D CGI that at first looks rough but as the show goes on it becomes acceptable nnThere isn’t a specific plot there are plot points but there is no end goal or major antagonist it’s a very wholesome show unfortunately it’s a very hard anime to find anywhere online there is a Chinese sub on the archives website and an Arabic dub on YouTube as of March 9th 2025. nnI highly recommend this anime if you want a positive wholesome experience and if you’re ok with 3D CGI anime
