* DownerEnding: S1-T3, the toy robot gains sentience and wants to be free and fly high in the sky. Unfortunately Stain just can’t seem to effectively help him with his dream. In most cases like this, hope would still be found and eventually a solution but in this case, the poor little robot just gives up on his dream and his sentience and simply goes back to being a toy for Stain. Certainly not what you’d call a happy ending.

An excessively dark and surreal CGI anime series (also known as Ga-Ra-Ku-Ta) about the titular Mr. Stain, a hobo who lives in the dark, somewhat dilapidated square of a city, the titular Junk Alley, where a wide variety of strange (and sometimes dangerous) characters and creature live out their lives. Stain regularly hangs out with his best friend, the brash cat Palvan, and roots through the junk piles for interesting things.

The series is 14 episodes long with each episode being a "Volume" centering around one object that Stain finds as well as the consequences. Nobody talks in these shorts , instead pantomiming and making grunts, yells, and other sounds to move things along. It appeared on Creator/AdultSwim briefly, and has since seen a DVD release by Creator/{{Funimation}}. While it has excessive amounts of Horror and DerangedAnimation, it also has enough tender and interesting ideas to have formed a cult following.
