A new series of "Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear" is scheduled to air in April 2023. The main character, who wears a costume and is unrivaled in another world, is very exciting to watch, and the original novel has become a popular work with over 2 million copies published. The previous series was broadcast about two years ago, so some people may have forgotten the content. This time, I would like to look back on the plot of the first season of the previous work. Please note that there are spoilers!
Yuna is sent to another world
The main character, Yuna, is not on good terms with her parents and does not get along with her classmates at school, so she lives a reclusive life instead of going to school. However, she was very talented at stock trading, and used her talent to make a lot of money. One day, she logged into her favorite game, World Fantasy Online, and answered a questionnaire. She was sent to another world, whether by a prank or by God. And for some reason, she was wearing a bear outfit. As she was confused by her appearance, she suddenly heard a girl's scream. There, Yuna met Fina, the heroine of this work.
Meeting with Noah
Yuna was picked on by an adventurer named Deborane, but she easily fought back. Together with party member Lurina, a magician, Yuna sets out to defeat 50 goblins. However, when they actually go into the forest, they find that there are nearly 100 goblins and even a Goblin King. Ignoring Lurina's concerns, Yuna is up to something. After that, she gets a base called Kuma House and is settling into life in the other world. However, at that time, she receives a special request from Cliff, the lord of Crimonia. When Yuna visits the lord's mansion, she is met by Noah, a cheerful and slightly selfish young lady.
Save the orphanage!
While trying to enjoy some food at the market, Yuna finds some children in dirty clothes who look extremely hungry. When she visits the orphanage where they live, even the building is in a dilapidated state. She hears rumors that Cliff, the lord of the manor, is involved in their poor lifestyle. Yuna feels resentment towards the lord, but it turns out that it is not the lord, but one of his subordinates who is the mastermind.
Kuma-san, save the capital from crisis! ?
Yuna, Fina, and Noah decided to go to the royal capital. Fina was a little nervous around Noah, the lord's daughter, as she felt that they were of different social status. After riding bears, staying in a bear house for outings, and helping Noah's friend Misana, the group safely reached the royal capital. There, Noah's mother Elerola and sister Sia were waiting for them. Gulzam, the royal palace magician who was supposed to have been banished for violating a taboo, appeared at the royal palace again after ten years. Gulzam declared his revenge on the shaken king. And the monsters he accompanies are heading towards the royal capital, numbering 10,000. The one who stands up to the crisis is Yuna, who just happened to be passing by.
Let's open a bakery!
One day, while enjoying their life in the bear house they built in the royal capital, Yuna and Fina decide to go out together for the first time in a long time. While enjoying their shopping, they notice that the delicious bakery they had eaten at before is closed for some reason. Yuna decides to open a shop in place of the clerks who are closing the shop. The shop was a huge success from the first day of opening, and the previous clerk ended up staying at Yuna's shop.
Final Battle with the Kraken
Yuna finds out that the distribution of food has stopped. The cause is the monster Kraken, which has taken up residence in the port and is attacking ships. Yuna devises various strategies to defeat the Kraken, but she can't come up with a good idea. Finally, she faces the Kraken head-on, but she is forced to struggle more than ever before. However, she eventually uses fire magic to defeat the Kraken. Now that she is a hero, Yuna is in high demand in various places. Fina feels lonely about this. Yuna and Fina gradually start to drift apart, but with help from Noah, they are able to close the gap again.
Synopsis Summary
In the previous series, Yuna was very active, making the most of her bear set's abilities. I hope to see her doing the same in the new series! I'm sure new characters will appear, so I'm looking forward to seeing who will appear. I've summarized my predictions for the new characters in another article, so please take a look at that too!
