Makibao is a rather unusual racehorse, with a bodily build resembling that of a hippopotamus. However, when his mother was taken away due to bad debts, he must overcome his stocky build and enter the world of horse-racing to help his owners earn money to buy back his mother.
Never has there been such a series in the past, and from its popularity and strange premise, it's probably safe to say that there may not be anything else like it in the future.
The full series is up on Youtube somewhere, but don't expect it to stay up for long. On the other hand, Studio Pierrot probably wouldn't care less given the reception of the show.
