Thank you for reaching out today. I am watching Crayon Shin-chan, however, I am not certain how to review it, since there are over 1100 episodes. You gave me an idea for what to write in the conclusion for my review, do you mind if I borrow what you said?
No problem at all! Crayon Shin-chan sounds like a really interesting review, too- it sweeps so many different eras of anime! Do you find it tends to change with the times, or is it pretty static? I saw a lot more Chibi Maruko-chan when I was living in Japan, from the channels I got, but it seemed stable in its own sense of time & place. I've not tackled Shin-chan, but am curious as to if it is similar in that way.
Chibi Maruko-chan is considered a "female Shin-chan" in a lot of aspects (having seen a bit of both). The two are parallel with each other. Do you know if there is anyway I can watch Nintama Rantarou (aside from the live-action film)? So far, I know where to see Shin-chan, Maruko-chan, Doraemon and Ninja Hattori. I plan on hosting episode downloads on a separate web address in the future.
The one difference about Shin-chan is the nudity (not the worst when it comes to nudity though... [Note to self, Ebichu and Hamtaro are not the same]). To my knowledge Chibi Maruko-chan has none.
I'm sorry there are over 1100 EPISODES of Crayon Shin-chan? Great googly moogly. I've watched Crayon Shin-chan and I can't fathom how you could get that much content out of it. ^^;;;
I am not sure where you'd find Nintama Rantarou, which is so bizarre to me- the character has such a charming, iconic design, but I know him more from having an SNES game than the anime. It's irritating that I can be sitting at my desk with a DVD of Z-Mind in the same room while we're cut off from something so long running
