About Mr. Osomatsu

Fujio Akatsuka started serializing Mr. Osomatsu in 1962 and was later adapted into an anime series that aired from 1966-1967. In 2015, the series was revived as a new anime series to celebrate its 50th anniversary.

The story follows the Matsuno sextuplets, Osomatsu, Karamatsu, Choromatsu, Ichimatsu, Jyushimatsu, and Todomatsu, who are all identical but have different personalities. They are lazy, mischievous, and often cause trouble for their family and the people around them. The series is a parody of Japanese culture and society and often features references to popular anime and manga.
