Crayon Shin-chan first appeared in a Japanese weekly magazine called Weekly Manga Action, which is published by Futabasha. Crayon Shin-chan began broadcasting on TV Asahi on April 13, 1992, and has also been aired by the anime television network, Animax across Japan, Hungama TV in India, and in Latin America.

Much of the humor in the series stems from Shin-chan's occasionally weird, unnatural and inappropriate use of language, as well as from his inappropriate behavior. Therefore much of this humor is untranslatable for Western readers and viewers, and a few jokes can't even be translated into other East Asian languages. In Japanese, certain set phrases almost always accompany certain actions; many of these phrases have standard responses. A typical gag involves Shin-chan confounding his parents by using the wrong phrase for the occasion; for example, saying "welcome home!" when he arrives instead of "I'm home!".

During the beginning of the series, the TV show was mostly based on the storyline in the comic books. As the show progressed, more and more episodes became anime-original.


NOTE:
This part is from me,i'll give you a bit of summary
about this anime/show,since the one of the top is a basic info.

Shin Chan is about 5 or 6 years old kid. Shin always makes people(Watchers).
Shin always insults her mom everytime she wants to do something that has to do
with her beauty,body,and other such things. When Shin's Mother likes to do a spa
or anything,like i said "things that has to do with her" Shin always gets her down.
As For Shin's father,he always likes to drink alchohol,that's mostly what he does
most of the time.
Shin's Lover,she's about the same age as Shin,they go to the same school.
This girl is rich,and she always has this body guard that always hide behind things,but
mostly on the bushes,but then there this bold little kid,with a blue hair..well a little hair,
who likes the rich girl,but the rich girl always gets him down. The girl will do anything
to get Shin Chan.

Well guys,thats all for now...i dont want to spoil much of the show.
