DogAndPanda: Obocchamakun

Obocchamakun

History

Recently, I've become (more) interested in abandonware/foreignware, and places like http://www.rom-world.com coupled with emulators really help.

I came across this game called Obocchamakun, which I misread as having something to do with obachan (grandmother), which seemed interesting enough. To describe this game politically incorrectly, it seemed to be about a gay prancing little boy who can turn into a cat, versus some very strange enemies (like a catwagon).

Anime/Manga

Further research shows that Obocchamakun is in fact based on a manga series, which also spawned off a manga series. The wikipedia article for the author, Yoshinori Kobayashi ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshinori_Kobayashi ) shows that the author is a very deluded (?) Japanese man with some interesting political beliefs - which I won't go into now but may some day.

The manga itself is about a pretentious little rich kid (translated roughly : The Little Princeling).

Feel free to watch this anime clip (not translated into English) in which the main character has a bad case of the runs, and apparently shits gold and jewels.. ... and there seems to be some crotch grabbing.. and the biggest bathrom I have ever seen:
