"Pants Pankuro" (Japanese: パンツぱんくろう) is the name of a series of animated shorts (each just over a minute in length) that air on Japanese public television. The series is geared to toddlers and young children, and most episodes focus on the issues involved with toilet training. It features a number of anthropomorphic characters, including talking toilets and washing machines, who instruct children about how to use the restroom and what to do in case of an accident.
Characters
- Pants Pankuro, the protagonist, is about three years old. He has just started to wear underpants and use the toilet.
- Komingo is Pankuro's little sister. She is not yet toilet trained.
- Koricchi is a boy the same age as Pankuro; the two are intensely competitive.
- Koin is a girl about the same age as Pankuro, who likes to spin and dance.
- Toire-sama is Pankuro's friendly household toilet. Pankuro usually treats Toire-sama with great respect, as though he were an older relative.
- Kamiko-san is the toilet roll holder.
- Sentako Hacchan is Pankuro's eight-legged washing machine, who is very eager to do the laundry. (The name is a combination of "sentaku," which means laundry, and "tako," which means octopus.)
- Koricchi's family also has an old-fashioned squat toilet (name unknown).
