Chibi Maruko Chan |
Chibi Maruko-chan (ちびまる子ちゃん?) is a shōjo manga series by Momoko Sakura, later adapted into an anime TV series by Nippon Animation, which originally aired on Fuji Television
from January 7, 1990 to September 27, 1992. The series depicts the
simple, everyday life of a little girl nicknamed Maruko and her family
in suburban Japan in the year 1974. The series is set in the former city of Shimizu, now part of Shizuoka City, birthplace of its author.
The first story under the title "Chibi Maruko-chan" was published in the August 1986 edition of the shōjo manga magazine Ribon. Other semi-autobiographical stories by the author had appeared in Ribon and Ribon Original in 1984 and 1985, and were included in the first "Chibi Maruko-chan" tankōbon in 1987. The author first began writing and submitting strips in her final year of senior high school, although Shueisha
(the publisher of Ribon and Ribon Original) did not decide to run them
until over a year later. The author's intent was to write "essays in
manga form".
Many stories are inspired by incidents from the author's own life, and
some characters are based on her family and friends. The nostalgic,
honest and thoughtful tone of the strip led to its becoming popular
among a wider audience.
The Chibi Maruko-chan series has spawned numerous games, animated films and merchandising,
as well as a second TV series running from 1995 to the present.
Maruko's style and themes are sometimes compared to the classic comic Sazae-san. In 1989, the manga tied to receive the Kodansha Manga Award for shōjo.
As of 2006, the collected volumes of the manga had sold more than 31
million copies in Japan, making it the fifth best-selling shōjo manga
ever.
Characters
- Momoko "Maruko" Sakura (さくらももこ Sakura Momoko?, まる子 Maruko)
- Voiced by: Tarako, Live-Action: Ei Morisako
- The title character, Maruko (born May 8, 1965) is a nine-year-old third-grade student raised in a relatively poor family of six. She is lazy, disorganized and usually late for school, in strong contrast with her neat, calm and tidy older sister (sixth-grader) who must share her room with her. Maruko, like many kids, tries to avoid homework and chores, and she takes advantage of her doting grandfather and squabbles with her sister. Nevertheless, she is a well-meaning child who tries to do good. She is similar to Calvin in Calvin and Hobbes in that she often uses adult-like language to express her child-like feelings. She has many food dislikes, including natto and tomatoes. She loves reading manga and is a good artist, and her stated goal is to become a manga artist when she grows up. In one episode, she admired and aspired to be like Helen Keller, Mother Theresa, and Marie Curie. It is implied that the show is drawn by Maruko herself. Maruko has a problem with her sister cooking and throws whirlwind tantrums. She knows a lot about her mother, father and grandmother.
- Hiroshi Sakura (さくらひろし Sakura Hiroshi?)

- Voiced by: Teiyū Ichiryūsai, Live-Action: Michiko Shimizu

- Sakiko Sakura (さくらさきこ Sakura Sakiko?)

- Voiced by: Kei Tomiyama (1990-1995), Takeshi Aono (1995-2010), Bin Shimada (2010-), Live-Action: Fuyuki Moto
- Maruko's kind but absent-minded grandfather. Naive and easily tricked, he keeps a pet turtle and loves watching TV with Maruko. When feeling distressed or nostalgic, he spontaneously retreats to a surreal inner world for a few seconds to improvise a sad yet comical haiku about his state of mind. His birthday is October 3, 1898, making him 76 in the series. The author has said that she used her own grandfather as the model for Tomozou, but that his personality is the opposite of Tomozou's.

- Voiced by: Nobuo Tobita, Live-Action: Kazuya Sato
Maruo is one of Maruko's classmates and serves as the male class
president and always wants to be admired by others. He has very thick
glasses because he is a very serious student and studies very hard every
day; black lines appear on his face nearly all of the time, especially

class president and like Maruko is pretty intent on maintaining her
position, even promising along with Maruo to come in the morning to do

Movie Review ... "It Takes Two"
![]() |
It Takes Two (1995) |
It Takes Two is a 1995 film starring Kirstie Alley, Steve Guttenberg and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. The movie title was taken from the song "It Takes Two", song by Marvin Gaye and Kim Weston, which was featured in the closing credits.
It Takes Two boasts some similarities to Walt Disney's The Parent Trap and Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper, which was pointed out in Leonard Maltin's review of the film.
Plot
Two unrelated young girls who happen to look identical suddenly meet. Amanda Lemmon (Mary-Kate Olsen)
is an orphan, and she is about to be adopted by the Butkisses, a family
whom she doesn't like. She actually wants her child-loving case worker
Diane Barrows (Kirstie Alley) to adopt her instead. She would like to do so, but authorities will not let her because of her low salary. Alyssa Callaway (Ashley Olsen) is coming home from her boarding school's piano recital competition, only to find that her wealthy father Roger (Steve Guttenberg) is about to marry Clarice Kensington (Jane Sibbett) a socialite who (secretly) hates kids and baseball, which Roger adores.
The girls switch places and find out that Roger and Diane would fit
together perfectly. So they arrange "chance" meetings with the desired
result: they fall in love with each other. After some turbulences,
Alyssa (who poses as Amanda) ends up being adopted by the Butkisses. She
and Diane (while looking for Alyssa) find out the only reason they have
adopted so many kids was for them to work in their salvage yard.
When Clarice secretly spies on Roger and Diane, she decides to move
up the wedding from the next month to the next day. After Amanda, who
poses as Alyssa, proves to the family butler Vincenzo (Philip Bosco)
who she really is at the church, he summons to have the real Alyssa
picked up from the Butkisses' salvage yard to stall the wedding. Once
she and Diane show up, Roger stops the wedding and tells Clarice that he
fell in love with Diane. Furious, she slaps him and prepares to do the
same to both Amanda and Alyssa but is stopped by both Vincenzo and
Diane. She storms out, embarrassed. Alyssa embarrasses her even more by
stepping on her dress, causing the skirt to rip off, revealing her
underwear in front of everybody, including people with cameras. Roger
and Diane both find out in the end that it was Amanda and Alyssa that
arranged all the meetings between the two of them the entire time.
