Keshikasu-kun (ケシカスくん?, a keshi-gomu (消しゴム) is a white eraser) is a Japanese children's manga written and illustrated by Noriyuki Murase (村瀬 範行 Murase Noriyuki). It has been serialized in Monthly CoroCoro Comic from June 2004.[1]

The series is about a white eraser who becomes Keshikasu-kun by putting an eraser crumb on his head and a paper costume on his body. Keshikasu-kun wants to become the best of the stationery supplies, outdoing other characters such as the blackboard eraser (kokuban-keshi) and the correction fluid (shūseieki).[1]

Beginning in 2008 Keshikasu-kun appeared in the television program Oha Coliseum.[1] Keshikasu-kun received the Shogakukan Manga Award in the children's category in 2008.[2]

The January 2010 issue of Monthly Coro Coro Comic, released on December 15, 2009, revealed that an anime adaptation, classified by Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions as a television program, had been approved.[1]

The anime has been airing since January 2010.
