Synopsis

Sazae-san follows the everyday life of a mother living with her husband, kids, and parents under one roof. It's basically the Japanese answer to The Partridge Family—a wholesome family show built on traditional values. There's no violence, profanity, action sequences, or magical girl nonsense here. Instead, you get plots like "Sazae goes to the new mall and gets lost." That kind of thing. The simple storylines and basic art style don't always appeal to Western audiences, but Japanese viewers eat it up. The show consistently pulls in huge ratings and stands out as one of the rare anime that adults actually consider respectable entertainment.
