Aibou swag
I'm so excited that I just had to squee a bit! As I've mentioned before, I'm a big fan of the Japanese detective drama Aibou (Partners), and recently a Japanese friend sent me some very cool Aibou swag: three folders for Season 10, Season 11, and my favorite supporting character, Detective Itami Kenichi, whom I love for his sarcastic sense of humor and the way his outward gruff rudeness makes it difficult to see at first that he really is a very honest and decent cop with a strong sense of justice.
She also sent me recordings of a few episodes from Seasons 10 and 11 that I haven't seen yet (I've only watched up through Season 8 so far), so I'm really excited about getting to watch something new! And since the current Season 11 introduces a new partner (played by Narimiya Hiroki) for the main character Inspector Sugishita, I'm curious to see what he's like and how they work together. The episodes aren't subtitled, of course, but it will be a good chance for me to work on my Japanese. ^_^
I do wish that English-subtitled dvds of this show were available, because it is my all-time favorite detective show (American or Japanese), and I wish that I could share the Aibou love with the rest of you on my F-list!
