Tagawa Suihō Norakuro Museum (田河水泡・のらくろ館)

Norakuro was a famous and highly influential manga by Tagawa Suihō, which began in 1931 and ran for ten years. Norakuro is about a black and white dog who joined the Army. The basic story is that he is a member of a troop of dogs fighting against the Monkey Army. The author, who grew up in Fukagawa, drew upon his experiences as a veteran in writing his tales. The U.S. cartoon character Felix the Cat was a great influence on the design, Tagawa was a fan of the Pat Sullivan films. The manga was animated in the 1930s and later in the 1970s and 80s.
