I'm not normally into anime - i find penis/tentacle ejaculation/nosebleed metaphors rather tiresome, and the obsession with schoolgirls rather perturbing - but this is unlike anything I've watched from that genre.
Funny, sad, thought-provoking and interesting. Just what you need for comedowns. Yes!

animation varies from excellent to, er, passable. Only half an hour long. Worth a watch -
