Q, The Pitt, Dexter: Resurrection, The Studio, Ballard, Alien: Earth, and Dying for Sex, among others.

What Is Takopi’s Original Sin About?

The six-part sci-fi drama follows a cheerful alien named Takopi, who travels to Earth from his home planet with the mission of spreading joy and happiness. He befriends Shizuka, a young girl facing neglect and bullying, and attempts to help her using his magical Happy Gadgets. But despite his good intentions, Takopi’s efforts lead to unexpected consequences. Along the way, he discovers that true happiness is far more complex than anything technology can offer.
