A silent three‑reel comedy short that uses footage from the 1933 King Kong film as a backdrop for its own storyline. Produced by Shochiku Studios—the company that released the original King Kong in Japan for RKO—the film combines live‑action comedy with reused jungle scenes, reflecting early Japanese parody of a Hollywood classic, and is now considered lost.
