This is a popular Japanese manga and anime series turned into a live action TV show, featuring the cute 9yo Maruko chan and her daily exploits at home and at school. There are two generations, with the main characters played by different actors. One was made in 2006, consisting of two 90min long shows. The 2nd generation series began airing in April 2007. Each episode is one hour long and currently there are about 20 episodes. The girls are all very cute!

Enjoy!

It's funny, I couldn't find any English subs before, but now I've managed to find one right after I've posted!
I only found the 2006 spring sub though. Furthermore, keep in mind that the videos are Chinese subbed, so it might be a bit messy adding another sub over it!

Here it is:

Enjoy!

Excellent post Jacen - more live action series are always welcome !!

See, lurkers eventually post and release.

btw. many media players allow you to set the position of the subs, so just position the English subs a little higher or lower than the hardcoded Chinese subs. You can even put them at the top of the screen.

Cool! There are also other rips that can be found, but I suspect most of them are probably also subbed in Chinese.

Wow! That's a cool post

Thanks!!

I got all episodes complete today

CUTIE ALARM

Glad you liked it!

By the way, a new episode will turn up every week, just do a search, if you don't get tired of her that is!

Here's a site with clips from the 2006 version if you're still undecided!
