Nintama Rantarou - TV Anime Episode Guide (part 2)

The second set of anime videos is calld "Shin (new) Nintama Rantarou", with 6 episodes per tape, generally incorporates stories from manga volumes 13-22. This table is organized by video volume, and includes the title in Japanese, an English translation of the title, a short summary of the episode, and the manga equivalent (if I've been able to find one). When Rantarou, Kirimaru, and Shinbei are all doing something in the story, I will simply write Rantarou-tachi. The abbreviation "inc" in the manga column means that the anime story incorporates ideas from the manga indicated, but the story itself is somewhat different. Also please note that page numbers may be approximated.
