Bonobono 2016

Fishing Cat was hurt all over. Fishing Cat was exhausted. It was a day not too long ago, when Bonobono and Fishing Cat first met. The day after a storm passed through, Bonobono found Fishing Cat stranded on a rock. Bonobono takes care of Fishing Cat while he is unconscious.

There's a rumor that something terrible will happen in the forest in three days. Those words were written on a boulder. But what is going to happen? Raccoon tells Chipmunk and Bonobono to look for signs over the next three days. The two keep their eyes peeled and begin to see signs all over...

"In three days, something incredible will happen in this forest." Three days have passed since that message was left on a large rock. Chipmunk thinks it is just a prank, but Raccoon thinks it might be true. Bonobono and his friends go up the Kumomo Tree's hill which overlooks the forest to see if something really does happen.

Raccoon tells Bonobono and Chipmunk that Fenny has turned delinquent. He spits on the street, tears bark of trees, does round-house kicks and certainly seems like a delinquent. They go to see what is going on with Fenny and find him sitting lazily, a toothpick in his teeth, every bit a delinquent.

Bonobono picks up a strange tool. He, Chipmunk and Raccoon are searching for the owner when they meet Big Sis Sho, who tells them it belongs to her uncle. Chipmunk doesn't like his stubborn and strict uncle and tries to run away. Big Sis Sho catches him and takes him to their uncle.

Neither Bonobono nor Chipmunk have ever seen a waterfall. Raccoon explains that a waterfall is where a riverfalls down, but Bonobono imagines something very different. Raccoon decides to take them to see a real waterfall at a mountain far away. On the way, the sun gets low in the sky and they decide to sleep outside...

Bonobono, Chipmunk and Raccoon have set out for a distant mountain to see a waterfall. They hop across a river, cross a log bridge, and walk through underbrush to finally reach the great waterfall! Bonobono finds it quite interesting that the waterfall continues moving even when he is not looking. He thinks the waterfall must get tired having to move even when no one is looking.

Wolverine starts crying to his father that he is hungry. Wolverine's dad thinks Wolverine is big enough to catch his own food, and tries to teach him to hunt. But Wolverine can't seem to get the hang of any hunting methods and starts to quibble about never being able to do it.

Raccoon and his dad have a fight. Raccoon says he's had it with my dad and leaves home! He drags Bonobono and Chipmunk with him to find a house where he can live alone. Big Sis Sho says the forest to the south is good, and the forest to the west is bad. And Raccoon heads toward...

Bonobono asks Fishing Cat to show him his paw. Fishing Cat invites Bonobono to see his friend Brown Bear's paw. He says it's five times bigger than his. When they arrive at the cave, Brow Bear sees Bonobono and...

There are no ants or earthworms, but holes appears in a certain place. Drops of rainwater don't make the holes, either. The holes just form on their own. Raccoon says that this place in one corner of the whole world couldn't be different. But Bonobono thinks that in the whole wide world, it's okay for this place to be different.

Fishing Cat wants to talk to Mother Bear and asks Bonobono to take Baby Bear out to play. But, Baby Bear is just learning to talk and plays by copying Bonobono. Bonobono doesn't quite know what to do, and takes him to visit Chipmunk and Prairie Dog.

The Kirokiro Bug often chirps in the forest. It doesn't run away if you get close, but will run if you try to catch it. Perhaps because it can't run straight, it keeps changing direction while it runs. While wondering where they should go today, Bonobono and Chipmunk decide to follow the Kirokiro Bug.

Raccoon has made up his mind again. He is seeing what will happen if he never washes his face. After two weeks, he gets angry and starts pulling up grass. Soon one month has passed. What has happened to Raccoon's face? Bonobono and Chipmunk timidly approach Raccoon's house.

Bonobono finishes playing with Chipmunk and comes home to the coast, but his father is not there. He thinks about how he doesn't know what his father does when they're not together. Could his father and Chipmunk be weird creatures wearing skin in order to fool him? Bonobono imagines scarier and scarier things, and then the Putaway Man comes...

Watching cumulonimbus clouds, Bonobono thinks to himself, "Yeah, it's summer." He gets excited and starts running around. He wonders what others do when they think, "Yeah, it's summer." Walking where Prairie Dog points him, Bonobono finds a sign for a Summer-Seller with a pinwheel turning. Bonobono enters the Summer-Seller shop, as it is beckoning to him.

Boss Bear, the former boss of the forest where Bonobono and his friends live, who fought Fishing Cat and lost. Since then, he's lived quietly on the mountain across the valley. Now, he's come back down the mountain and approached Fishing Cat. Meanwhile, Bonobono is heading off to practice catching fish with Baby Bear.

Bonobono can't catch fish and has asked Baby Bear to teach him, but he still can't get the hang of it. They keep at it, and soon the sun is setting. Meanwhile, Fishing Cat and Boss Bear duel on Kumomo Hill to decide who is the strongest in the forest.

Fenny has thought of a super-funny story. He decides to tell everyone and hurries to Bonobono's place. But only Bonobono's father is home. He says he'll listen to the story instead, but starts laughing partway through and Fenny can't finish. Fenny goes into the forest to find someone to listen to his story.

"There is one in Pettari Rock. No one who sees it comes back alive." Big Sis Sho tells Chipmunk about Pettai Rock which a ghost supposedly haunts. Chipmunk doesn't believe her, but Bonobono insists on going to Pettari Rock. Deep inside the dark cave they find...

One day, Bonobono, Chipmunk and Raccoon are feeling bored and decide to think up a new game. But all Bonobono and Chipmunk come up with are standing on acorns and digging up rocks and grass. Raccoon angrily rejects their ideas. Raccoon wonders if he can make a game by rolling Bonobono's shell when it hits him.

Bonobono passes a rabbit with a large head on the road. "I think I’ve seen that rabbit before... Where did I see him?" It keeps bugging Bonobono, so he follows the rabbit. The rabbit's name is Poposu. He says he does not know Bonobono. Where did Bonobono see Poposu?

There is a strange-shaped cloud floating over the other side of a mountain. Bonobono tells his father he wonders what is under the cloud, and his father tells him to go and see. Bonobono then sets off on his first journey by himself. He is nervous at first, but then starts to enjoy it. Then, in a grassy field, he turns around to find...

Chipmunk is very good at throwing walnuts into holes and says he wants a rival. Bonobono and Raccoon tell the fired-up Chipmunk about Jobo, the great rock-thrower. They set off for the river where he lives and find a small, weak-looking child sitting on the bank. Could he be Jobo?
