Why does only Chico Bento have toes in Monica’s Gang?

Have you noticed that, in Monica’s Gang, only Chico Bento has toes? Understand the reason behind this curiosity!

Turma da Mônica is one of the most successful franchises in Brazil. The stories created by mauricioinSousa marked the lives of entire families, helping with children’s literacy, or simply being one of the best companions at the time of fun.

Despite being extremely popular inside and outside the country, there are still some facts about the group that many fans have doubts about. Among the most popular questions is why Chico Bento is the only character with toes.

Explanation

According to Mauricio de Sousa, there are two main reasons for this fact. The first is that the character was created at a time when cartoonists still had time to draw details on their characters. So much so that, at that time, everyone owned shoes.

“Whoever was born without shoes, ended up without them, because there wasn’t enough time and I didn’t have a team like today. Now I could even draw everyone in high heels”, said the cartoonist in an interview with O Globo.

In today’s comics, only Cebolinha appears with shoes. However, during Monica’s first appearance, we can see that Dona da Rua is not barefoot as we see her today.

The second reason is related to the characteristic of the character. According to Mauricio, he needed an item to reinforce the idea that Chico Bento is a hillbilly, and the way he found to represent what he wanted was his feet on the ground, always in contact with nature.

Despite always appearing with bare feet in the main comics, this does not always happen in the comics of the young version of Turma da Mônica. In his comics, entitled “Chico Bento Moço”, the character has already appeared on several occasions wearing shoes.

In addition, it is worth remembering that Chico Bento will also win a live-action, scheduled to debut in 2023. The public had the opportunity to check out a small preview of what is to come in the post-credits scene of “Turma da Mônica – Lessons” ( 2021), where the character appears with his classic yellow blouse, blue shorts, straw hat and, of course, barefoot.

This Friday, the 10th, it was revealed that the child influencer Isaac Peanut will be the actor responsible for giving life to Chico Bento in the new live-action.
