The Ancient Dogoo Girl (古代少女ドグちゃん, Kodai Shōjo Doguchan?, "Ancient Girl Dogu-chan") is a Japanese comedy tokusatsu series directed by Noboru Iguchi, director of The Machine Girl and RoboGeisha. The show airs on MBS every Wednesday night at 25:25 JST. The ending theme is Denki Groove's "Dareda!" (誰だ!?).
Here is the premiere episode of Erika Yazawa's new drama series, Kodai Shoujo Dogu-chan. Again, I'm going to pass on trying to describe this show. It's a show that definitely needs to be seen in order to be appreciated. If you want an idea of what this show is about, check out the trailer for the show.
Plot
By chance, a hikikomori named Makoto Sugihara finds a strange breastplate buried in the woods. When he places his palm on the breast plate, its design gets burned into his palm and awakens a girl named Dogu-chan, a hyperactive yōkai hunter from the Jōmon period. Because he had touched her breastplate, Makoto is now bound to Dogu-chan as she adapts to modern day life, forcing Makoto to go with her as she fights yōkai in magic armor with her dogū assistant Dokigoro while slowly prying Makoto out of his shell, whether he likes it or not.
