What happens

Oraa Guzura Dado (おらぁグズラだど; lit."Hey, I'm Guzura!"), also known as Guzula the Amicable Monster, Gudzulla or So It's Gudzulla, is a comedy manga series which was serialized on Weekly Shōnen Sunday in 1967. The manga was based on Hiroshi Sasagawa's one-shot "Onboro Kaijū Guzura" published in the same magazine the previous year as the clumsy and straightforward character of Guzura was very popular at the time. Later a 52-episode comedy anime adaptation of the series, directed by Hiroshi Sasagawa and produced by Tatsunoko Production, was aired on Fuji Television between 7 October 1967 and 25 September 1968. The anime was remade into a 44-episode series also directed by Sasagawa. The remake aired on TV Tokyo between October 12, 1987, and September 30, 1988. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
