Hakozume ep.01

A fun and entertaining pilot ep! I hope you enjoy XD
Some notes here:-

  • Kawai and Fuji address Igasaki as “Hako-cho” (Police Box Chief); I’ve translated it as “Box Chief”
  • This may be obvious, but PB is short for Police Box and HQ for Headquarters
  • The Showa era is from year 1962 to 1989
  • Shoot wresting is a combat sport, and Shoot style is a generic term used to describe a range of hybrid fighting techniques that originated in Japan in the late 1970s
  • Ukon is short for “Ukon no Chikara” (literally “the power of turmeric”), a popular drink in Japan said to aid digestion and prevent hangovers; many people drink it before alcohol consumption

    Great combination of drama and comedy. I am looking forward to the upcoming episodes. Thank you so much.

    P.S. I hope you don’t mind, but I posted about your subs on stage48.net where Nishino Nanase has a thread as a former member of Nogizaka46.

    Thanks!

    lol i know they’re the ‘good guys’, but questioning without a lawyer is kinda shady. i mean, japan is diff, but still (also just makes me think of ace attorney being ridiculously hard with the conviction rates/guilty until proven innocent viewpoint)

    I laughed an inordinate amount at this episode, especially at the inspection part (everyone’s a riot!). Hope this gets better and better. Thank you for your work!

    at 9:47 there’s a little souvenir type thing of a samurai whose name is written as 斉藤一 next to it, but it seems like it’s actually referring to 斎藤一? both kanji are joyo kanji though… what’s up with that?

    I’m rewatching this again after watching the anime. I also love seeing Yamada Yuki and Nishino Nanase before they married. I read somewhere that they met through this drama?
