But Kintaro learns the most important lessons from the beautiful women he meets in each episode and falls in love with. The situations he gets into are hilarious and his constant buffoonery and obsession with the opposite sex always get him in trouble. While many would consider the stories to be a wet dream for the male ego, they really aren't. Well, not completely. They do go a bit over the top, which adds to the humor but Kintaro's main goal is to learn about life and love, not just to get laid. He sometimes comes off as an extreme pervert, especially when he starts in on the toilet worshipping, but it's usually (I hope) a show and he surprises you with his insight in the end. Most if not all of the female characters are stereotyped but at least they aren't bimbos. They are usually intelligent and sometimes manipulative, but Kintaro always wins them in the end. Again, a boost for the male ego but Kintaro wins them with brains and charm, not strength and underhandedness. He is to be admired...I think.
