This episode focuses on Matsukata’s boyfriend, Yamashiro Shinji, a construction supervisor who isn’t enjoying his job, and is always getting harshly chewed out for his mistakes. Hmm, this guy’s kind of depressing… but there is hope for him by the end of the episode. Yamashiro Shinji no Yuuutsu… er, Shinji’s melancholy is nicely balanced by comedy scenes over at the Jidai office.
As a side note… did anyone else think the song playing in the background of Matsukata’s apartment sounded an awful lot like Naruto’s “Seishun Kyousoukyoku”?…
It’s his own fault for being named Shinji… poor guy. — And since “anyone else” basically means me, we’ll have to wait a few weeks for the sub. :ko:
This show almost reminds me of Sex and the City - the anime, at times. Not that I ever watched that show… but it was impossible to escape hearing about it.
