a.k.a. who is this guy?

OK, I looked up the names. Shuhei Murai is the father of the artist, Kinuyo Murai is the mother, and Shigeru Murai is the artist. There's also two brothers in the family, Yuichi and Mitsuo.

Today's episode started with Shuhei Murai (the father) and Kinuyo Murai (the mother) leaving their house in the morning, carrying the Boston bag. A neighbor sees them, and asks where they are going. Shuhei says Tokyo, and explains that they are going to see his son, Shigeru, who draws manga. There's a bit of talk -- I think the mother said he's drawn 10s of books, and father added but none are published yet. There's a brief shot of Shigeru working on a drawing in a rather run down apartment. And mother fussing at father about you didn't have to mention that he hasn't been published...

Meanwhile, Fumie is reading manga. Her brother brings in a pile of manga magazines, borrowed from someone. They dig through them, looking for Shigeru's work. Which ones are his?

And a clip of the artist busily working again. Voice over says they won't find his work yet...

To be continued.

So we have a starving artist and a very pushy mother.

I happened to catch a little bit of a program called Dr. General today. I won't be watching it any more -- it's on early in the morning, and is not something I particularly want to see at that hour.
Please step behind the curtain )
Now you too can suffer from every disease known to the medical profession, without even becoming a first year intern! Just watch Dr. General every day, and learn what those innocent-seeming symptoms you've had all your life really mean...

A prescription for hypochondria. Take two episodes, and visit your doctor in the morning.
