忍者ハットリくん (Ninja Hattori-kun)

Ninja Hattori-kun (忍者ハットリくん) was one of my favorite anime when I was about 5 or 6 years old. Sounds weird because I'm 20 years younger than Shinya 😂

The anime is about ninjas and "獅子丸" (しし丸 / Shishimaru) is a dog owned by the main character, Hattori-kun.

However, my favorite part is the theme song. Showa-era anime songs are all really good~!

Japanese lyrics:

忍者ハットリ・ハンゾウ　ただいま参上 山を飛び　谷を越え ぼくらの町へ　やってきた ハットリくんが　やってきた どんぐりまなこに　への字口 くるくるほっぺに　ふくめん姿 目にもとまらぬ　早業で 投げる　手裏剣　ストライク ござる　ござるよ　ハットリくんは ユカイな味方　忍者でござる 忍者でござる ... くさりかたびら　わらじばき 背中に　せおった　忍者刀 目にもとまらぬ　早業で 投げる花束　ド真ん中 ござる　ござるよ　ハットリくんは うれしい味方　忍者でござる 忍者でござる

Every since I watched Monsterverse I wanted to dive deeper and I watched the 1954 and drew a sketch design and a piece which is in progress
