One of my favorite genres is one I call "surreal goofball comedy." It's gag humor in which not even the limits of reality are respected. Nichijou is the most well known example, but Pani Poni Dash is probably my favorite. Other examples include Excel Saga, Asobi Asobase, Galaxy Angel, Ueno-san wa Bukiyou, Kill Me Baby, and most recently, CITY The Animation.

Pani Poni Dash is underrated, good to see it mentioned. Have you seen Poputepipikku?

Poputepipikku

It's on my "I have no doubt it's good so I'm in no hurry to watch it" list. I should probably get on that...
