Crayon Shinchan to continue..

TV Asahi said Friday it will continue airing the animation series of ‘‘Crayon Shinchan’’ adapted from the comic book series. Despite the death of original cartoonist Yoshito Usui. Usui, 51, was found dead last month on Mt Arafune that straddles Gunma and Nagano prefectures.

TV Asahi ‘‘Our program will continue to feature the world view created by Mr Usui in his original stories which was shown in the animation series we have aired hitherto,’’ a public affairs official of the TV station said. TV Asahi said it also aims to release a new ‘‘Crayon Shinchan’’ movie next spring. ‘‘Crayon Shinchan’’ depicts the everyday life of a feisty kindergarten boy Shinnosuke Nohara and his family living in Kasukabe, Saitama Prefecture, where Usui resided. I love Shinchan I think its sad that it will continue with the creator but I also don't want it to go.
