I have chosen this animation 'Crayon Shinchan' because this is one of my favourite anime titles during my childhood even now. I love this anime because mainly of its storyline, most are the catchy jokes which makes me burst out laughing. As I grew older and became more interested in animation, I began to admire the character design. The characters dont look very great but you can tell by its style, that it is targeted on children because of its child like drawing, and exaggerated like when the character's mouth is out of place. In my opinion this animation suits for people 12 and above because Shinchan is a bad role model for younger audience because of its explicit jokes, inappropriate use of language and mild nudity on it.

The first story of this animation was written by Yoshito Usui (Lived April 21, 1958 – September 11, 2009) was done in manga (Japanese comics) then made it into an anime during 1992 till 2010 and currently have 700+ episodes

Shin is a 5-year-old boy who is constantly doing and saying inappropriate things, with hilarious results, much to the dismay and annoyance of those around him. Shin, along with his family, his friends from kindergarten, and some annoying neighbors, ends up turning every day situations into funny adventures.

Yoshito Usui the creator of shinchan died on September 11, 2009 after a fall at Mount Arafune. After Usui died, Futabasha originally planned to end Crayon Shin-chan in November 2009. Upon discovery of new manuscripts, Futabasha decided to extend the comic's run until the March 2010 issue of the magazine, which shipped on February 5, 2010
