They do not serve any purpose but to quickly provide a sense of friendship in Tamako's daily life. The biggest offenders are Tamako's school friends: Midori, Kanna, and Shiori.

You cannot have a character-driven slice-of-life anime told through the perspective of a weak character. Even when the story shows small signs of her developing as a character, it will simply fall back on her denseness in order to prevent any growth. There is little to make her stand out aside from the fact that she is cute and naive. Tamako is merely your ordinary, dense heroine (think Chitanda with pigtails) who is no more memorable than any other generic slice-of-life lead. Each characters has about the same depth as wrapping paper, as none of them even once prove to be more than their established archetype. Tamako Market's biggest weakness is regrettably its characterization. But there is certainly a problem when such a simple anime still falls Should we criticize an anime for not going beyond that?

Starring the young lady Tamako and a flamboyant talking bird, Tamako Market is yet another anime that attempts to cash in on the slice of life phenomenon. Coincidentally, ordinary is the best way to describe Tamako Market. There's something about anime which allows us to derive entertainment from the mundane events of an ordinary person.
