Kamigami no Ki

This is a two-minute short animation on the theme of Egyptian mythology set near the Nile River in Egypt around 3000 B.C. It features the gods Mejedo, Anubis, Ra, Bastet with their two human caretakers Ahkeu and Iabi. The human characters Ahkeu and Iabi are played out like a classic Manzai as they learn about the gods of Egypt. They trick and are tricked by the gods. There is some mythology with the gods powers explained but it is all used for humor. If your are a fan of Toshiyuki Morikawa you will appreciate the fact that he does all of the voice work. Morikawa alsoperforms the theme song for the show. This is the only series that I know of that has the same actor for all the characters. According to Morikawa, he thought the producers were kidding at first when they asked him to play all of the roles, but he was happy to throw himself into the performances so that viewers can forget that all of the voices are coming from one person and just enjoy the show.
