Kreegah Bundolo is a phrase that Tarzan—and the tribe of apes that raised him—cry out to warn of danger, for example, "Kreegah bundolo! White men come with hunt sticks. Kill!" According to the fictional ape language worked out by Tarzan creator Edgar Rice Burroughs, the literal translation of the phrase would be "Beware, (I) kill!"
"Kreegah Bundolo" is one of a few names for the Frank Zappa song whose most popular title seems to be "Let's Move to Cleveland". It is also utilized in Bruce Coville's "Allbright" series as Grakker's "violence" module boot-up sound byte. It was uttered by a hunger-crazed Fat Freddy in an episode of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers.

Jane Porter is an eccentric, kind and intelligent young woman. She's the first of the group to encounter Tarzan and they fall in love. Ken Duncan served as the supervising animator for Jane. Many of Minnie Driver's mannerisms and characteristics were incorporated into Jane's animation. The scene where Jane describes meeting Tarzan for the first time to her father and Clayton was improvised by Minnie Driver, resulting in Ken Duncan animating one of the longest animated scenes on record. The scene took 7 weeks to animate and 73 feet of film.
Jane Porter (Disney) is a different kind of woman from Edgar Rice Burroughs' character of the same name in the books, because she's a brunette British lady in the end of the Victorian era.

Emonogatari is a type of novel with a very high proportion of illustrations. Alternatively, it can be said that when the Kamishibai picture-story show is ported to a book, the amount of text in a picture book is increased, or the picture and text of a manga are separated. The boundaries between these genres are extremely vague, and it is not uncommon for the same work to change from a picture story to a manga, or vice versa, during serialization.
Emonogatari was especially popular before and after World War II. In most cases, the same writer is in charge of the painting and the text, and some of the illustrations have balloons, so it is sometimes regarded as a type of manga.
The origin is said to be that the editor of the magazine "Shonen Club" proposed a reading material in the form of "picture-story show" to Soji Yamakawa, a picture-story show writer, and Yamakawa wrote a rough form as a picture-story show to read alone. The first work that can be clearly confirmed is from the 1930s ("Shonen Club" July 1945 issue, picture-story show "Shounen no Yuushi").
Emonogatari writers are often Kamishibai picture-story show writers, illustrators, animators, and cartoonists. Representative writers include Soji Yamakawa and Shigeru Komatsuzaki. Osamu Tezuka, who created the basis for Japanese manga expression, and Hayao Miyazaki, an anime film director, have also left behind works in the form of Emonogatari.
The golden age of Emonogatari was a short period lasting from late 1945 to 1955, but it is said that it has influenced the many "graphic novels" that appeared from 1955 onwards 1.

Jungli is a Hindi word for North American English terms like Slacker, Get Wild and Something Fishy, which also refers to a person who lives in and dwells through a tropical forest (but particularly a seasonal Indian tropical forest).
A Jungli is a person belonging to the Indian jungle or being characteristic of an inhabitant of such a jungle. Mowgli seems to be the best known example of a fictional character being one.

The scrawny, teenaged version of George Of The Jungle from the naïve first season of the Canadian TV Show remake. He actually has incredible strength.
