About this title

Synopsis

Mahoujin Guruguru is a light-hearted show aimed at older children, although it contains occasional toilet gags and some innuendo that might startle western parents. It is a parody of early role playing games, particularly turn based games such as the Final Fantasy series. The narrator speaks in place of the dialog in such games and this is one of the comedy elements of the show. Often RPG-style information boxes are displayed on screen along with accompanying narration in the traditional RPG style. The overall goal of the main characters, Nike and Kukuri, is to defeat Giri, the ruler of the darkness.

    Nike is the hero of the show. Nike's father had always wished to be a hero, but due to the lack of any great evil to fight against he had to give his dream up. Still, he made his son undergo hard training as a child in hopes that one day a great evil would arise and Nike could fight it. Because of this Nike is a competent, although cowardly, fighter, however like Kukuri he is initially immature and inexperienced. Nike is from Jimuna Mura (which translates to Plain Old Town). Initially Nike does not want to be a hero, but his parents end up forcing him to. (Source: Wikipedia)
