The Brave 'Yoshihiko'
Created by Yuichi Fukuda
On TV Tokyo
A high-spirited RPG parody that treats the chosen-one fantasy premise as material for comedy rather than earnest heroism, sustaining its playful tone across 35 episodes of episodic adventure.
The story is set in an ancient time, when the whole country was covered in thick forests. A mysterious plague breaks out, resulting in countless deaths. A pure young man named Yoshihiko becomes chosen as a hero, and he sets out on a journey in order to save a village. He has two goals – to bring back the legendary plant that can cure the plague, and to rescue his father Teruhiko who left to find the plant but never returned.
