The series features a diverse ensemble, with an American protagonist navigating a Japanese animation studio alongside Japanese characters, creating a visible mix of nationalities and cultural backgrounds. The narrative explores cultural differences and comedic misunderstandings, with the protagonist's 'American' traits occasionally serving as a source of humor or conflict, rather than explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
