    Note that while there are certain things that young children can do in Japan because it’s a generally safe society, that show is almost completely contrived. There’s no cultural ethos of “the first errand” that your ~5 year old is tasked with doing as a mark of a stage of life.

    Cute show but the concept itself is as real as most reality TV in the states.
