Summary:

Tamako Kitashirakawa is the eldest daughter of a family which runs the Tama-ya shop in the Usagiyama Shopping District. One day, Tamako encounters a strange talking bird named Dera Mochimazzi who comes from a distant land searching for a bride for his country's prince. After becoming overweight from eating too much mochi, Dera ends up becoming a freeloader in Tamako's home. The series follows the everyday life of Tamako, her friends, family and neighbors, and this peculiar bird.

Own opinion:

The reason why I watched Tamako Market was because of the bird. I watched Tamako Market because Dera is so cute ^w^. But after watching the episodes, I fell in love with my ship and that's Tamako and Mochizou. It's very rare for Kyoto Animation to have a concrete romance in there anime so I felt really happy when they focused on them on the movie.

So...if you want a heart-warming anime, you need to watch this one.
