Nintama Rantarou (TV)

Have you seen this? want to / seen some / seen all

Alternative title:
Ninja Boy Rantaro
Ninja Rántaro (Spanish)
Rakudaii Nintama Rantarou
Rantaro, el ninja boy (Spanish)
忍たま乱太郎 (Japanese)
Genres: action, adventure, comedy
Themes: education, ninja
Plot Summary: Rantarou, Shinbei and Kirimaru are ninja apprentices in the Ninja Gakuen, where first grade ones are called "Nintamas" (contraction of the words ninja+tama (egg)). They must learn everything a ninja must know, but as for our heroes, money, food or playing are more interesting. The series show the everyday adventures of our heroes, segmentated in a cartoon fashion, like 2 small episodes in a 30-min show. The cast also includes the teachers (Doi-sensei and crossdressing Yamada-sensei), nintama kunoichis, evil guys (Dokutake ninjas) and even family members of all the cast... funny, nice, with catchy music (especially themes like "don't mind namida" or "0 champion")
