a live action osomatsu-kun adaptation from some tv block or something way back in the 80s resurfaced today! there's no subs and ig the tape's a bit borked (idk have only barely started to watch it myself) but hey! still neat!
(should also note that i absolutely did not find and upload it; this was all the work of somebody called mediamonster!)
Chibita’s live action outfit from the 80s special is so me coded omfg
[image description: two images of Chibita from the live action Osomatsu Kun special from 1985, which has just been found.
In the first image, Chibita has his arms up and he is waving excitedly. He is wearing what looks like a pink puffer jacket, a pink plaid shirt, and dungarees.
The second image is a lot blurrier and more zoomed in. He is running and you can see his dungarees are cuffed]
it kinda makes me sad that even as the fandom is growing quieter here people still dont seem to like characters like dekapan or hatabo or even matsuzo. like ive seen people say "why watch the old stuff lol it isnt even about the sextuplets" and like... thats kinda the point. the point is you get to know eeeeveryone else bc the sextuplets are just the same kid times six. its just... sad to me. i really only see chibita drawn when its karabita, and forget ever seeing people draw dayon, dekapan, or hatabo. iyamis really the only character thats okay in terms of appreciation but... bleh idk i wish these other characters werent so horribly slept-on, both in the fandom AND the show (cuz lets face it they got ignored quite a bit even in the show/movies)
sometime when im REALLY bored i need to do an episode guide for osokun. like a short review of each episode for the ppl who are passively interested in checking it out. something to point directly to the good and underrated episodes and so you can skip the ones that are really boring or creepy to totoko.
