If you can read this in Japanese and LOL, then you are Japanese! What you find in this series, is almost every aspect of traditional and modern Japanese life depicted in one small police box next to a park in Tokyo. Actually its a hell of a lot more then that, with everything from simple Japanese "つっこみ” and "ぼけ” to complex workings of Japanese society at both a political and social level. The cast is huge but grounded on 3 main characters: Yrotsu, Reiko, and Nakagawa. And really, anything more on this CLASSIC from a beginner reviewer like me would just be letters, so FIND IT ANDREAD IT!!

P.S. Shouldn't be hard to find with it's record-breaking 170 volumes to date...
