Uiba Shikatani, the daughter of a pet shop owner is heartbroken after some reptile eggs fail to hatch. In his attempts to cheer her up, her father brings home a large, striped egg, which he hopes will successfully hatch (unexpectedly into a green dinosaur whom they call 'Muka-Muka', which are the only words which the baby reptile can speak).
Muka-Muka soon becomes the talk of the town and comes into the interest of the town's professor and his wacky inventions, including a time machine which successfully teleports the Shikatani's among other families and their homes to pre-historic times where they encounter several other dinosaurs and enchanted beings on their adventures.

Where it came from
Muka Muka Paradise debuted in 1993 as an animated adaptation of the manga series by Yumiko Igarashi. Produced by Nippon Animation, the series emerged during a period of high experimentation in the children's afternoon television slot, focusing on the comedic and domestic adventures of a young girl named U, who discovers a prehistoric creature named Muka-Muka. The show captures the aesthetic hallmarks of early 90s shōjo-influenced anime, emphasizing expressive character designs and a whimsical, fantasy-driven narrative.
The character design reflects Igarashi’s signature style, known for soft lines and emotional resonance, which helped the series secure a place in the saturated market of 90s slice-of-life anime. While the show enjoyed a modest run and maintained a dedicated following among fans of the era's lighthearted animation, it is remembered today primarily as a quintessential example of the 1990s Japanese television landscape, characterized by its focus on creature companionship and lighthearted episodic storytelling.
