TOKYO - Thousands of manga fans flocked to the funeral Monday of Japanese cartoonist Yoshito Usui, whose cheeky schoolboy character Shin-chan delighted millions.

More than 3,000 mourners queued to offer their last respects at central Tokyo's Aoyama Funeral Hall, where pictures, stuffed dolls, comic books and videos of Usui's characters were on display and decorated with flowers.

Usui died on a mountain hike in September.
