クレヨンしんちゃん

Crayon Shin-chan (Japanese: クレヨンしんちゃん, Kureyon Shin-chan) is a animated comedy  slice-of-life television series adapted from the eponymous manga created by the late Yoshito Usui, produced by Shin-Ei Animation for TV Asahi. Originally premiering in Japan on April 13, 1992, it is still ongoing on several television networks worldwide. The series currently has over 1,200 episodes, and has spawned 31 feature films and two spin-off series made for streaming. The series was originally directed by Mitsuru Hongo from 1992 to 1996, and was replaced by Keiichi Hara from 1996 to 2004. Since 2004, the series is directed by Yuji Muto.

The series follows the adventures of a five-year old boy named Shinnosuke Nohara and his parents, his dog, his baby sister, his neighbors, and his friends. They live in Kasukabe, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. A staple of the series is its large cast of characters. Most of the plot is about Shin-chan's daily life, but it is also often interspersed with a lot of fantastic and incredible elements. Shin-chan is known for causing trouble wherever he goes due to his childish lack of tact when speaking to others, especially towards adults. The series is mainly comedic in style with some sexual innuendo. However, due to its popularity, it's also stylistically as family-friendly as possible, although it may not apply to all global audiences. Most episodes are about the importance of family and friends.
