About

Abunai Sisters: Koko & Mika is a 2009 Japanese CGI short anime video series promoting the Japanese tabloid celebrities Kyoko and Mika Kano, starring the two red-headed sisters as secret agents. The show has had a notable online presence over the years, often regarded as one of the "worst animes ever" by many, and gained an ironic fandom around June 2023 following a resurgence of interest as people shared clips and created memes based on the show.

Not that it would make it much better, but I assume we are missing context for some of the jokes or "jokes" to land. Since this is a comedy based on two Japanese celebrities that have had no relevance in the Western world, we are naturally not going to get some references to their antics, mannerisms, or drama that could be considered funny.

That being said, due to the sheer lack of information beyond that, I doubt the Japanese considered it very funny regardless.
