Kazihiro: [he discusses it with his colleagues in Japanese] Yes. We believe it is.

This comedy is bound to be good from the get-go. East meets west and east doesn't want to lose...west doesn't know what losing is like. It starts a little slow but it grabs you very soon and it doesn't let go. This is definitely worth seeing.
