Friends: Naki of Monster Island

📖 SYNOPSIS

"Friends: Naki of Monster Island" is set on an island known as Monster Island, a place steeped in legend. The island's inhabitants believe it has been home to monsters since ancient times. While the tales are true, the monsters are not the terrifying creatures of myth, but rather friendly beings who live in constant fear of humans. The story begins when a human child named Kotake wanders onto the island. This unexpected arrival leads to a surprising turn of events as a grumpy, red ogre named Naki finds himself responsible for the child's well-being. The anime explores the unusual relationship between the ogre and the child, and the strange things that arise from this unlikely encounter, set against the backdrop of a world where monsters and humans are separated by fear and misunderstanding.
