by The long-loved anime “Kiteretsu Daihyakka” was broadcast from 1988 to 1996. The original is a manga by Fujiko F. Fujio. Unique characters such as Eiichi Kite (Kiteretsu) and Korosuke, who love inventions, will appear.
Therefore, from February 5 to 12th, 2022, the Netorabo Survey Team asked, “What is your favourite character in” Kiteretsu Daihyakka “?”
In this questionnaire, we received a total of 299 votes. Thank you for your many votes! Let’s see the result.
Kaoru Kumada (Buta Gorilla)
“Kumada Kaoru (Buta Gorilla),” who collected 40 votes, is ranked in 3rd place. I think some people will not come to him unless he hears a more potent nickname, “Buta Gorilla,” than his real name. Even in the comments, a voice said, “One vote for Kaoru Kumada, who has a good personality and doesn’t look unpleasant even if he is called a pig gorilla.”
By the way, the background of her strong nickname is influenced by the feeling of her girlish name in the complex. In addition, the father who runs a greengrocer often appears in the animation. In the comments, there was a voice saying, “I like my father and myself.”
Tsutomu Karino
“Tsutomu Karino” ranked in 2nd place. The result was to collect 64 votes. The voice actor is Kaneta Kimotsuki, who played the role of Sune in the anime “Doraemon.” “Tsutozo Karino” is a neighbor of the house where the main character lives. He is a character whose school uniform and big round glasses are impressive.
He is a kind brother to Kiteretsu, but he is often in trouble because of his clumsiness. In the anime, the number of appearances has increased compared to the original manga, which may have been remembered by the viewers.
Korosuke
“Korosuke” was ranked first! It collected 111 votes, which was a big difference from 2nd place. Korosuke is the first invention by the main character, Kiteretsu. Although he is a robot, he has the will and emotions and often engages in comical interactions with Kiteretsu and his friends.
In addition to its cute appearance, it is characterized by the first person “I” and the ending “Nari “because it is cute.”
In this vote, Korosuke, who is the mascot character of the work, ranked first. The surprising result was that Kiteretsu, the main character who invented Korosuke, did not enter the TOP3. Although the original manga of “Kiteretsu Daihyakka” was completed in all three volumes, the animation was broadcast for about eight years. Many settings and characters in anime are not found in manga, so it’s interesting to compare them.
