Crayon Shin-chan: Great Adventure in Henderland (クレヨンしんちゃん ヘンダーランドの大冒険,Kureyon Shin-chan: Hendārando no Dai Bōken) is a 1996 Japaneseanime film produced byShin-Ei Animation. It is the 4th film of the anime seriesCrayon Shin-chan.[3][4]
A prince named Gorman fought with a dragon to save Henderland's princess Mimori, but got captured by the evil magic of a pair of fraternal twin dolls, Joma and Makao. This is a story that Ms. Yoshinaga narrates to her students. The school then organizes a field trip to Henderland (a parodied version ofDisneyland), a theme park based on the same fairy tale. In Henderland, Shinnosuke get separated from his friends and teachers and meets Toppema Mappet, a dancing doll in the restricted section of the park. Shinnosuke winds the doll's key, causing her to move and talk like a human. Shinnosuke then covers a larger doll of Princess Mimori in a glass case, whom the smaller doll called Toppema claims to be a real princess trapped by evil forces.
They confront with 2 other magical dolls, awerewolf called Cre.G.Mad and afemme-fatale called Chokirin who try to silence Toppema. Chokirin and Toppema end up with a magical duel resulting in Toppema's seeming defeat. Shinnosuke then gets called away by his teacher as he returns home.
That night, Toppema meets Shinnosuke and explains that the tale of Henderland is in fact real & the Henderland park is a real land filled with magical creatures as described in the fairy tale where Joma and Makao lead a force of creatures that can control dark magic but are vulnerable to the magic of a suit of magical cards, which she managed to steal from them & seeks the help of Shinnosuke in defeating them because the card's full magic can be unleashed only when wielded by a living being. Despite being shown the power of the cards, Shinnosuke refuses to help Topemma. She leaves the cards with him.
Joma and Makao sends one of their henchman named Snowman to retrieve the magical cards from Shinnosuke. Snowman arrives at Kasukabe and pretends to be an official from the Department Of Education by showingleprechaun gold-like forged documents. Snowman gains the trust of the teachers, Shinnosuke's friends & parents. Shinnosuke tries to warn those around him to beware Snowman but nobody believes him. Snowman spends the night at Shinnosuke's house and tries to steal the cards but fails to do so. Snowman escape leaving a letter containing tickets to Henderland.
Despite Shinnosuke's pleads, his parents visits Henderland. Before leaving, Shinnosuke's parents visit the bathroom but behave very strangely afterwards. Once they return, his parents demand the Magical Cards before falling into the bathtub as they are revealed to be enchanted puppets. Toppema returns and theorizes that Joma and Makao must have captured the real Misae and Hiroshi in Henderland. Determined to save his parents, Shinnosuke agrees to help Toppema. Toppema explains that due to the effect of Chokirin's magic, she can help him only at night, so he spends the entire next day in preparation.
Shinnosuke arrives at Henderland in the evening and is ambushed by Cre.G.Mad, he uses the cards to callAction Kamen, Kantam Robot and Buriburizaemon and transforms into a steam train as Cre.G.Mad transforms into a wolf again. Buriburizaemon comes up with a plan, to create an additional track for Cre.G.Mad to crash into an obstacle. Unfortunately, the plan fails as there was no one to change the way, but at the last minute Toppema appears and changes the wolf's track, causing him to into the water. Cre.G.Mad's t-shirt transforms into Hiroshi, who reveals he was being mind controlled by Joma. The trio head towards Joma and Makao's base but get ambushed by Chokirin.
Toppema and Chokirin once again engage into a magical fight as she defeats Chokirin, but gets weaker and weaker due to exhausting her power and gradually fades and Chokirin's bra transforms into Misae. The three then travel to Joma and Makao's palace where they are challenged to a dance fight. Joma and Makao perform a dazingballet while the Nohara family perform atraditional Japanese dance and win. They are then challenged to a regular card game which they also win.
In midst of a confrontation, Shinnosuke learns from the magical cards how to defeat Joma and Makao. After much challenge, Joma and Makao are destroyed but their castle begins to crumble. The Nohara family manages to escape the crumbling palace and end up at a beach. Snowman comes there to confront them. Just then Princess Mimori comes and melts down the Snowman, revealing Prince Gorman inside. She reveals herself to be Toppema and explains that Joma and Makao trapped her and Gorman's souls into the doll and a snowman respectively. A huge celebration commemorating Mimori & Gorman's marriage is held as peace and prosperity in Henderland is restored.[4]
