Being a big Microman fan, I was introduced to the story of Issun Boshi. Looking at the two I can see close comparison. Issun VS. The Red, Blue and/or Green Oni and Team Magnepowers VS. Demon Red, Blue and Green. ^^ Lest to say that Issun Boshi is my favorite legend now... Here we see Issun Boshi sitting by a campfire on his journey to the city. He roasts a bit of sweet potato over a fire while talking to his ant friend. Soon his rock moves and reveals itself to be a snail...and thus Issun loses his dinner. ^^ I don't remember a snail in the original, however I thought it would be cute... -Maverynthia
