so a while ago we rolled the first episode of osomatsu-kun on crunchyroulette

Quinneapolis
-kun, not -san, the old one

Quinneapolis
and man

Quinneapolis
osomatsu-san sure has almost nothing in common with osomatsu-kun tonally

Quinneapolis
it's weird

Quinneapolis
the sheeeh guy is doing his trademark sheeeh with the kind of self-conscious intensity you'd expect from a show in its 8th season, right out the gate

Quinneapolis
between scenes it would cut to random things that might be mascot characters and might just be a weird caterpillar that only got one line

Quinneapolis
there were multiple like 3-minute-long jokes where the punchline was just "sextuplets sure look similar"

ShootingXC
we did get the '88 version at which point the characters were all pretty old

re: Iyami coming out the gate that hard

Quinneapolis
wait are there multiple osomats-kuns

Quinneapolis
I thought it was just one -kun and one -san

Dragons Dragons
the original manga is from 1962, and the anime has a 60s version and an 80s remake

Quinneapolis
well that does answer some questions

Quinneapolis
anyway none of them did anything that would get them arrested or banned from a public space for the entire episode

ShootingXC
right? imagine a show like that successfully happening to the Flintstones

Quinneapolis
honestly the modern flinstones comics are apparently pretty wild

ShootingXC
yeah I've read a little bit they go hard

Quinneapolis
this happened to me this morning and i've been feeling weird ever since


ShootingXC
a devastating attack

I once explained Osomatsu-san to my teacher as "Dennis the Manchild"
