Koyo's Natsu-Kosode is an adaptation of Moliere's L'Avare, in which all the original scenes and personae are modified in Japanese style. In this paper I analyzed homogeneous and heterogeneous elements between the two dramas in order to illuminate Koyo's method of adaptation. Besides style, Koyo added some modification in the plot to give a fresh impression. He harmonized Western elements with Japanese traditional ones to please and satisfy the Japanese reader.
