In school Chibi Maruko Chan has many friends with whom she studies and plays together. Her close-pal is Tama-Chan and as Chibi Maruko Chan grows up, she and her friends get into assortment of predicaments, which they usually find their way through, with Maruko’s ingenuity.

5. Doaremon
Doraemon is a robotic cat who travels back in time from the 22nd century to aid a pre-teen boy called Nobita. Though a cat, he was suffering from musophobia or ‘fear of mice’. He possesses a fourth-dimensional pocket from which he can acquire various kinds of tools, gadgets and play things. The Doraemon episodes are comedies but include various environmental issues such as Global Warming, deforestation, pollution and homeless animals. Japan Cartoonists Association Award was awarded to Doraemon in 1973. As for gifting your Japanese girlfriend a Doraemon product, you can choose from products such as Doraemon figures, Doaremon plush doll or Doaremon cushion pillow. This could be one of the effective technique to say I love you in Japanese style (If you do it right off-course).
