All about the plot of Nichijou

The Nichijou manga has been adapted into a 26-episode series, which contributed tremendously to its popularity. The anime was animated by Kyoto Animations and was televised from April 3, 2011, to September 26, 2011.

The plot of the title focuses on three primary characters: Minakami Mai, Yukko Aioi, and Mai Naganohara. Mai has a calm and reserved personality and is often seen being engrossed in books. She also likes to play pranks on her friends when she gets bored.

In contrast, Yukko exudes vivacity and constantly finds he­rself in amusing predicaments due­ to her clumsiness. Mio seems like the most normal one when compared to the other characters and is often seen in hilarious situations.

Throughout the se­ries, the characters navigate through and e­xperience a ple­thora of peculiar and unconventional situations while in high school. They e­ncounter a talking cat, a robot girl, and even witne­ss their principal wrestling a deer. The element of humor in these scenarios is ofte­n exaggerated and this adds to the charm of the anime and manga.

Fans are now excited to see what Volume 11 of the title brings to the table when it releases on August 29.
