Tonkatsu DJ Agetarou
とんかつDJアゲ太郎Agetarou works at his family's tonkatsu restaurant in Shibuya, but he's not very excited by the work. One day, he takes a delivery to the staff of a night club, and the worker lets him in to enjoy the club for a while. Agetarou finds that he loves the club, with its relaxed people and cute girls, all enjoying the music supplied by the DJ. He continues going to the club, until the night comes when the guest American DJ Big Master Fly puts on a show. Agetarou is inspired by Big Master Fly, and realizes that the groove of being a DJ is very similar to the groove of being a tonkatsu chef. Now Agetarou is determined to master both disciplines, though he is most excited to become a DJ! (Source: MangaHelpers)

I'm gonna be honest with you guys, this shit was phenomenal to me. The animation is extremely simple and there's no deeper meaning to this show, it's just a damn good time. The story follows Agetarou, a boy who works under his father at a Tonkatsu (pork cutlet) shop. After seeing a live DJ performance himself, he set out to become a DJ, and it was honestly super fuckin' enjoyable. Nothing complicated, no layered character development or anything like that. It's just a kid having a good time making friends and learning to DJ for a little over 100 minutes total.
The art style is extremely goofy and oblong, and yet I loved the shit out of it. The voice acting was also great, and the character design was simple but varied properly. You could tell a lot about a character's personality just by looking at them.
All in all, I give Tonkatsu DJ Agetarou a 5/5 because there wasn't a moment I was watching this that I didn't enjoy myself. Watch it if you have time.
