"Golden Boy" is a six episode original video animation, or OVA, limited series from 1995 and 1996 about Kintaro Oe. Despite having qualified for a law degree at Tokyo University, Kintaro decided to leave without so much as graduating. Each of the six episodes showcases Kintaro's adventures as a care free individual meeting and helping out women he encounters across the country of Japan. Despite having abandoned academia, Kintaro still makes use of the study habits he honed by writing down and analyzing notes on a variety of matters he jots down in a notebook stored inside of his belt.
