Been a while since I saw it, so this may not cover new stuff if there is:
In response to an invasion and occupation by the toilets, camera headed robots were developed to strike back. The toilets and the camera-heads are the primary characters, regular humans are glaringly absent from much of the show. Over the course of several episodes, the toilets and the camera-heads engage in a back-and-fourth struggle. They develop new armaments, counter-measure, and counter-counter-measures. It escalates to crazy sci-fi lasers, gundam sized robots (and toilets), and mind-control. At some point, its reveled the toilets reproduce by brainwashing normal people (then, presumably, sticking their heads in toilets. I guess.)
The toilets... are just what happens when you suddenly decide to commit to a meme that took off. But the inclusion of the camera-head robots (and, eventually, TV and other such devices) invites an interesting read. It suggests that armed struggle cannot be disconnected from surveillance, that to increase security is to increase scrutiny. We also witness increasingly disturbing technologies, developed and unleashed to devastating effect and often with massive collateral. Shots often linger on the devastation, and our point-of-view camera-robot is with some frequency included in the casualties.
at the same time its also just a kinda silly battle animation
