Panchi

Panchi is a young boy who lives in the countryside with his father, a famous calligrapher. Panchi is a very curious and adventurous boy, and he loves to explore the woods near his house. One day, Panchi is exploring the woods when he comes across a strange creature. The creature is a small, furry animal with big eyes and a long tail. Panchi has never seen anything like it before, and he is immediately drawn to it. The creature's name is Barakamon, and it is a type of tanuki. Tanuki are mischievous creatures that are known for their shapeshifting abilities. Barakamon is no exception, and he quickly becomes a favorite of Panchi. The two of them spend many hours playing together in the woods, and Panchi soon learns that Barakamon is more than just a simple creature. Barakamon is a wise and kind spirit, and he teaches Panchi many things about the world. One day, Panchi's father discovers that he has been neglecting his calligraphy. He decides to send Panchi away to live with his uncle in the city. Panchi is heartbroken, but he knows that he must obey his father. He says goodbye to Barakamon and promises to come back and visit him soon
