Rinshi!! Ekodachan
臨死!!江古田ちゃん• Rinshi!! Ekoda-chan
Synopsis
The anime centers around the titular Ekoda, who works various jobs, and explores the city nightlife. While she has a boyfriend, she is more into casual relationships than taking it seriously. She considers popular girls (which she labels "birds of prey") her natural enemy. (Source: Anime News Network) Note: Each episode features a different director, character designer, voice actors, and studio. Each episode is also split into different segments, with the first 3 and a half minutes of the animated show, followed by live-action interviews with the creators, and then showing the drawing of the short.
