A whimsical anime spin-off emerges from the popular Densha Otoko (Trainman) television series. Following the adventures of Yamada, a devoted otaku portrayed by actor Itoh Atsushi in the drama, the series delves into his deep affection for the Mina anime. Mina, a captivating character with adorable traits like floppy rabbit ears and quirky carrots protruding from her rear, pays homage to the iconic nameless bunny girl from Daicon Animation, a nod to GAINAX's earlier works. Notably, Densha Otoko showcases nostalgic openings reminiscent of scenes from Daicon Animation, adding a delightful layer of intertextuality to the anime.
