Adaptation of the 3DO game.

This series revolves around a rather dumb young man named Bokeo, his super-smart cat Tora, and the situations that they get into. Fujio Pro describes Bokeo himself as being a predecessor to Bakabon, and that the series was the first work by Akatsuka to feature such a foolish protagonist (while it is said that the presence and popularity of Ichiro in Otasuke-kun paved the way to have a fool character as the spotlight).

In 1963, it won the 8th Shogakukan Manga Award with "Tebukuro Tetchan"
