[edit] Characters
Jagainu-kun is the main character. When happy, his tail sprouts a flower. Hedgetato-chan is Dogtato-kun's girlfriend. She is a pink hedgehog who sprouts many flowers when she is happy. In one episode, they venture around, and soon, they find themselves in straightland. In another, they find a cave with bubbles that capture sound. These examples demonstrate Dogtato's playful style of storytelling.
