"You and I are different, and that's why I like you."

The creators of DEKO BOKO FRIENDS, Momoko Maruyama and Ryotaro Kuwamoto, have a fervent wish - they would like to see children grow into adults who live harmoniously with individuals representing a variety of backgrounds and personalities. The twelve characters represent 12 types of personality traits. Each character is an amalgamation and condensation of traits found in a variety of people. The creators would like to see children develop tolerance and a broad-minded mental outlook that would enable them to accept each person they encounter. The concept uses the element of surprise to introduce this series of animted short stories. Each animated short focuses on one chacarcter and brings his or her personality trait to life.
