Fujio Akatsuka's most popular work, serialized in Shounen Sunday and other magazines! The six children, Osomatsu, Karamatsu, Choromatsu, Ichimatsu, Jyushimatsu, and Todomatsu, along with Chibita, Iyami, Hatabou, and many other unique characters, all cry and laugh together!
 
This series helped establish Akatsuka's reputation as a gag comic artist, long before his other popular manga, Tensai Bakabon. Osomatsu-kun has appeared in numerous special issues of Shounen Sunday. Akatsuka has also included several manga adaptations of routines from Charlie Chaplin movies in the series.
 
Note: Won the 10th Shogakukan Manga Award in 1964.

The would-be hijinks of the mischievous Matsuno sextuplets are hijacked from episode one by colorful buck-toothed con man Iyami and Chibita, his bald munchkin sidekick. Nearly every episode is a standalone comedy cavalcade with the above cast as well as other quirky locals who show up in a number of different roles as the series shifts effortlessly between time periods and genres, but in most cases, Iyami and Chibita are front and center as partners in crime, a couple of sad sacks scraping by but carrying out scammy schemes in order to get rich quick.

A wacky comedy about identical sextuplets causing wild pranks. Each episode features 2 stories. 
 
Note: The original 1966 broadcast of Osomatsu-kun ran over 60 time slots. Four of these were entirely rerun content, while eight others featured one new half-episode and one rerun.

Matsuno household has six naughty and mischievous sons (who are sextuplets), led by the eldest Osomatsu. They were grade schoolers back in the Showa period, but despite of still living in the same old household, the street view as well as the life style of modern day society have changed drastically.
 
The manga holds an original story, completely different from the one in the anime.
 
Note: Chapter count includes 1 extra.
