Concept and Creation

The creator, Maruko Jinko wants the anime on the franchise based on the video games, so he would make the game player character, Kouchu, into his anime counterpart. Maruko Jinko decided to change Kouchu's whole appearance so he wouldn't make his game counterpart the character of the anime. Garuko Joshida wanted to change the hairstyle of Kouchu to make him more familliar, and Kouchu worn a red headband every series, featuring the color of the circle of the flag in Japan. After Season 16 (Next Quest), Hidoshi Shayama, a designer since Season 13 decided to change Kouchu’s hair although he changes his mind against having Kouchu’s original hair in Season 17. So Hidoshi change Kouchu’s hair-- both sides long, and a big, fuzzy part at the back. At the beginning of ‘’Moon Blade’’ series, Hidoshi Shayama decided to change Kouchu’s hair again , now to short rather than having his long hair in the Moon Blade series. Maruko Jinko have kouchu to have a last name to deprive his personality and future physics.

The character development will summarize the creator’s idea, which Kouchu’s last name, Misako, means skillful and courage, which fits Kouchu into this personality.

Critical reception

In Garnet and Turquoise Episode 1505, a female blue-hair character named ichigo Musaki has a crush on Kouchu, influncing fans to imagine the couple and their future. Kouchu and Ichigo are a couple, until Kouchu reveals his love on Ichigo to his companions. Once Kouchu saves Ichigo again from Red Kouchu, the two characters share their first kiss. There are several more kiss scenes in the series. But, they were cutted until the characters were decided to be kissing. Kouchu and Ichigo were a pair because Maruko Jinko stated “A girl would be in love with kouchu, and Kouchu’s changing and growing for a time being. I want Kouchu and Ichigo to be boy and girl-friend because once characters have appearances in common, they are most likely to compare.

Since Episode 1478, Kouchu was able to merge all of his Crystal Monsters all into a “Rottobigin”, a final form gained from the Crystalpod device, which was also used in the Annual Tourament in Episode 1671, using the Moon Star Bracelette to transform Rottobigin to Moonobigin. But the battle got big it turns back to Rottobigin.Maruko Jinko stated once more, “Rottobigin is a powerful Crystal Monster of all time. That’s why Kouchu turns all of his 6 Crystal Monsters into a powerful, big, Rottobigin.”

In the video games

Kouchu's original game appearance is CrystalMini, where he is one of the main NPC characters. Kouchu appears in Defeat her, The Object, and Battle Party". In Defeat herand Battle Party".

Since Kouchu is based on his game counterpart, he is one of the default names in Crystal Jewels and Crystal Jewels 2. Kouchu and his anime counterpart compared, they both look different as time went by. Marcy Kimensho (Shinsho in Japanese), also have a last name, like Kouchu, and based on her video game counterpart. Also, Sakuro Himensho is based on his video game counterpart. Rather than the three traveling together, Marcy was replaced with Shauna Genga, and Marcy aside, caught over numberless of Marukas.

In Crystal Jewels, Crystal Jewels 2, and their remakes, a character very similar to Kouchu (his video game counterpart) appears as a playable character as well as in cameos in Crystal Jewels 3, Pakular, their remakes, Advance2, and Garnet and Turquoise.. The anime re-imagined Kouchu as his anime counterpart, the same way it re-imagined Kouchu's rival Marcy and Sakuro as their anime counterparts. Although they are counterparts, they are not the same characters because they originate from different canons and thus developed from different experiences. Though Crystal Jewels 2 has certain plot aspects that were inspired by the anime series, the player character is still named Kouchu

Printed Adaptions

Kouchu appears in Kouchu's Quest, Roaracryst Tales, Next Quest, Crystal Jewels MiniZ, New Crystal Jewels MiniZ, and Crystal Jewels GT.

In Kouchu's Quest, Kouchu's journey was based on Jarbon until the Jarbon Islands arc. Kouchu was mostly traveling by himself and travels with Sakuro and Shauna sometimes. In Roaracryst Tales, from the creators of Hiroshi Ukunoshadi, the chapters were based on several anime episodes. For Next Quest have the same way Roaracryst Tales have been adapted from the anime. In Crystal Jewels GT, Kouchu, unlikely from the anime, looked different. His manga counterpart from GT have darker hair, short hair, and wears unalike outfits. The pre-epilogue shows that Kouchu and Ichigo got married before their anime counterpart does.

In Crystal Jewels MiniZ, and New Crystal Jewels MiniZ, Kouchu appears in several and multiple times in the total of 18 chapters.

In other media

Kouchu appears in other series other than Crystal Jewels. He suddenly appears as a cameo in Cidz. he mostly made appearance in the Shogumon series.

In the ‘’Shogumon’’ anime, ‘’Switch at Twitch’’, Kouchu made his first brief cameo appearance. In the episode ‘’Eatitwice’s Depression’’, Kouchu was shown again as a cameo. In the Shogumon’s and Crystal Jewels 10th Anniversary’s TV Special, ‘’Crystal Jewels vs. Shogumon’’, Kouchu and his companions and Mike and his companions compete in which is the best franchise. In the ‘’Shogumon League’’ manga, which is based on the Shogumon video games, Kouchu made another brief cameo appearance. Kouchu made another brief appearance shown in the photo of ‘’Shogumon Dark and Light’’. In the ‘’Lego Adventure’’, the character is Couch Misap, a dastardly parody of Kouchu Misako. Couch appears in “Crystal Jewels No!”. Another appearance he made was ‘’The Minecraft Show!’’, which Kouchu Misako was called Kelvin despite Jinko’s refusal of his alternative name. And also, in ‘’Mii Island of the Gods’’, Kouchu made another appearance in the episode “Crystals and Jewels”. Another appearance Kouchu have made is Gameguys Infinity animated, which Kouchu is called Kouch Misack, which he is in episodes 12, 20, 55, 72, and 80.

There are collectible figures in Japan for the 25th Anniversary, which is a total of 8 figures representing 8 series in the Crystal Jewels anime. The figures are the Kouchu Misako set with a Roaracryst per figure inbox, and was set to be sold in Februrary 2018 and expired in December 2019.

Controversy

Kouchu have at least 87+ Crystal Monsters to him (without 30 Fishkarn and 20 Pioneers:37). He also have 80 medals won so far. Kouchu also encountered over 74 Crystal Monsters (and also 124 Crystal Monsters). These calculations were recorded at the upcoming 25th Anniversary of Crystal Jewels. There are many age differences in the series, which Kouchu was 9 (Original Series), 10 (Beyonds), 12 (Brawler’s Quest), 15 (Next Quest), 17 (Mental Consions), 19 (Souls of Legends, and Natalie Quest), and 20 (Moon Blade). Kouchu have been also most likely to achieve his dream.

In ‘’Go! Go! Super Battle’’, the character, Koumisa Chuko, based on the video game character, Kouchu, was borrowed of his name reassembled from Kouchu Misako, which is bold in first and normal in last name: Kouchu Misako (Koumisa Chuko).

In Crystal Jewels Zenerations, there are several references about Kouchu. In the episode, “The Secret Scroll”, Sakuro told the warren that Exxagoris was owned by Kouchu. In “Snow Storm”, Shauna told the village kids her adventures with Kouchu and the crew.

Marcy Kimensho, Kouchu’s longtime rival, was colder and crueler than her video game counterpart. She is good companions with Furious Five (became between protagonist and antagonist) especially with the evil minions, the Cheater Girls and Cheetah, with all their Marukas working together to rid of Kouchu and his friends. The rivalry of the two brawlers as Crystal Brawlers since Marcy the Genius, the ninth episode of the Crystal Jewels series. Kouchu hates Marcy, and Marcy always tell Kouchu that he is nasty, ugly, stinky, a liar, etc. and that makes Kouchu angry at her. Marcy and Kouchu never have been friends, and Marcy always prove that she is the strongest in the world.

Cultural influence

Kouchu Misako is still at least the popular character today. In the World Greatest Anime Records 2018, Kouchu was listed No.12 in the “Top 25 Best Male Anime Characters in their series”. Also, he was listed No.8 in “Top 29 Best Anime Hair”, No.3 in “Best Blue-Hair Anime Characters” in that position. Kouchu Misako was drawn, designed, and acted by other fans other than Maruko Jinko. They create fanarts, doujinshis, animated parodies, bootleg video games, fan novels, and stories.

Of course, Kouchu in his Original Series design was redesigned for the 25th anniversary. One time, fans and more fans compares Kouchu and his game counterpart and contrast them. Knowing for the resolution, Maruko Jinko stated, “I think Kouchu (from the anime) isn’t the bad character at all. And he have interesting moments according to his past”. The statement Jinko made suits the idea of the popularity of the Crystal Jewels series. Then, Kouchu Misako would be noticed and be looked back all these years since 1993.

“Within that ‘Every Crystal has a Power!’, Kouchu has the power to save the Crystal World. When we look back all these years of Kouchu, we realize one thing-- a master champion is a master champion of the league”. The character have big plans into being a master champion, which is absolutely, Kouchu Misako.
