I dunno why the actor thinks less of this role, when he really is a gifted physical actor reminds me a bit of Rowan Atkinson .

I'm so glad this is being uploaded for free on YouTube! I don't have Japanese cable...

There's a whole fan-made documentation on all the places featured in this show. I've been to some of them, and they've been fantastic

Ah the good old Goro’s season. He was much more bland and quiet then a whole lot more talkative and happier later on.

I live vicariously through Goro.

Hi Tokyo TV, I noticed that the entire series/all seasons have been removed from YouTube. It’s such a pity - it’s such a pleasant show to revisit and yes, nothing beats watching it in original Japanese version. I am wondering if the tv station would consider uploading all the seasons once again？

i hav rewatched this episode too many times. i always remember how the server keep reminding the customers "its spicy! is that okay?" and Goro always react "He always ask". It made me very happy that Goro san revisit this place in one of the SP and the actor who plays the server returned too, to ask the same question again!

So gyoza is called potstickers in English.

That part when Inogashira was thinking about the two women, though. Being alone is tough sometimes, huh?

Matsushige Yutaka looks a lot younger in the early episodes. The first series i saw him is was Death Note 2015, he's a really good actor. My favorite movie with him in it is Cafe Funiculi Funicula. The feels in that movie. I highly recommend watching it with a box of tissues.
