Unico (First Grader)

First Grader April 1981

More info coming soon!

Note:Most of the stories feature Unico living with a young boy named Esuo, and a dragon named Ragon. Although some of the stories are similar in nature to the original series, the stories are shorter and simpler – usually on a few pages long.

Unlike the Lyrica version, the Shogaku Ichinensei was designed to be read in the traditional right to left Japanese style. However, it has been published in full-colour as well as black and white.
