    Has to be one of my favorite shows for all its laugh-out-loud-even-if-people-are-around-and-look-at-you-funny moments. I guess you might have to "get" some of the humor--a lot of the jokes come from playing off the typecasting, like giving the "stoic" type an obsession with knitting--but I can't imagine at least some of the humor wouldn't translate. Anyways, totally fun and some adorable characters. You can actually watch this one more than once (who knew shows like that were out there?)

    Even though I haven't seen the dubbed version, the japanese dubbed is hilarious and has a very good plot. There are moments that'll make you laugh, and some that'll make you cling to the edge of your seat. Each episode is unique and the plot moves quickly, though it is 78 episodes. Definately a must see!!
