About My Life as Inukai-san's Dog.

One morning the protagonist wakes up to find himself transformed into Pochita, the pet dog owned by his stylish classmate Karen Inukai. The show follows his awkward adjustment to canine life while continuing to attend class and navigate friendships from a very different perspective. He tries to blend in as the classmate he admires remains unaware of the body swap, which leads to a string of slapstick moments, mistaken identities, and innocent mischief. The premise leans on light hearted misunderstandings rather than heavy twists, keeping the focus on character dynamics and everyday moments that feel relatable despite the goofy situation. The tone remains breezy and playful, never taking itself too seriously.

Released in 2023, the show is the creation of Itsutsuse. Director credits and source material are not widely documented, but the cast includes Shuichiro Umeda, Saya Aizawa, Mayu Sagara, and Yurie Kozakai.

There are no major awards or nominations publicly listed for this show. The reception appears modest, with a small but devoted fanbase and limited coverage in mainstream award circuits. No notable wins are recorded.

Fans describe the premise as light and playful, leaning into identity and friendship through a goofy canine lens. The 5.6 out of 10 score from 29 votes suggests a mixed response, with some enjoying the humor and others wanting more depth.
