This isn't your typical anime, of course - it's not action oriented, but it's a great way to learn about Japanese folklore, and it's a nice breather from your typical shows. Being directed towards younger children, the stories are lightened up with soft, adorable animation, but I think it's appealing to all ages.
There are only two narrators who split up narration of the stories as well as characters, but it doesn't deter from the story or entertainment. There are typically three or so stories per episode. Though they're short and simple, they still manage to catch your attention. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Japanese folktales!
