Hibana (2016)
A fascinating look into the lives of Manzai artists

I love the characters. For the first few episodes, I couldn't decide whether the comedy was awkward, or if the humour got lost in translation. I ask you to bear with it. The humour gets much easier to understand and will make you appreciate Manzai before the end. However, this is not a comedy show. It's drama. More specifically, it's character drama. Ten years in ten episodes, we are privy to the very best and worst bits. If you are bored of ten season shows about the same things, this is for you. I dare you to watch it to the end and not want to re watch the characters' beginnings.
I don't watch all that much Japanese TV or Movies, but the actors were incredible, and I'm going to look for them in the future.
