Hideki, leader of the Nerima Daikon Brothers, has a dream to build a dome in his hometown of Nerima to hold a concert for his band. Together with his cousin, Mako (whom he has a crush on), Ichiro, and Pandaikon (a panda he found in his yard that resembles a daikon), they strive to make money any way they can, and in the process, rid the world of evil-doers and steal their money in the process. With help from a rental guy, Nabeshin, who rents them outrageous items that always seem to help them defeat the bad guys, the Nerima Daikon Brothers sing their way to victory but always manage to lose the money they stole in the end. Even under the investigation of Inspector Karakuri, they never fail to fight for justice the Nerima-Daikon way.

Where it came from
Nerima Daikon Brothers was produced by Studio Hibari and broadcast in 2006 as a satirical musical comedy series. The project was conceived as a lighthearted, absurdist response to the socio-economic frustrations of the mid-2000s in Japan, framed through the lens of three aspiring musicians attempting to raise funds through unconventional and often nonsensical schemes in the Nerima ward of Tokyo.
The series is noted for its idiosyncratic art style and heavy reliance on musical sequences, which were designed to lean into a deliberately campy and chaotic aesthetic. While the show gained a small cult following for its unconventional structure and willingness to embrace musical parody, it was largely met with mixed critical reception due to its erratic pacing and niche humor, eventually remaining a footnote in Aniplex’s broader library of mid-2000s experimental television projects.
