Crayon Shin-chan

Long-running anime really are great, aren’t they? It’s the perfect show to enjoy as a family.

And, all things considered, his kind mom, unreliable dad, and adorable little sister are appealing too.

There are lots of movies as well, so definitely check those out.

Also, don’t miss the theme songs—major artists are behind them!
