In addition to the laughter that is unique to Crayon Crayon Shin-chan chan and can be enjoyed by both adults and children, the film is also full of heart-pounding action scenes, powerful dance scenes, and the singing scenes, in which I also worked hard, are grand and glamorous, making it a really entertaining movie.
