Synopsis:

Kiteretsu, a gifted student with a penchant for invention, navigates adolescence with his close-knit group of friends. His world expands beyond the everyday through frequent journeys into the past, facilitated by a time machine of his own design and accompanied by his meticulously crafted robot companion, Korosuke. The narrative explores themes of friendship, responsibility, and the potential consequences of altering history as Kiteretsu and his companions encounter various historical periods.

Alongside his confidante Miyoko, Kiteretsu contends with rival Tongari, a character who mirrors familiar archetypes while forging his own path. Adding a touch of lighthearted conflict is Buta Gorilla, a neighborhood presence known for playful antagonism towards Korosuke, providing moments of comedic tension within the larger scope of their temporal explorations. The series presents a blend of scientific curiosity and slice-of-life dynamics, inviting viewers to consider the delicate balance between progress and preservation.
