2016 contemporary comedy, 12 short episodes:
AniDB, vt
"Middle-Aged Man and Marshmallow". Hige is an overweight middle-aged
man working at Web Related Company (sic); he loves marshmallows.
Several of the office ladies are in love with him, for no obvious
reason.
That's about it, really; the plots, such as they are, are
developed from Hige's cluelessness, and the various
marshmallow-related tactics the ladies use to try to get his
attention. All the obvious jokes are used. There is essentially no
plot progression, and most of the episodes could be watched in any
order.
It's not exactly the most enlightened of premises, and the sexualised
presentation of the female leads even in non-sexual situations doesn't
help matters. This is an object lesson in how to make demeaning sexist
claptrap even without constantly parading half-naked women across the
screen.
Strictly for the marshmallow fan.
