In this episode, Ushida whisks Eriko away to a boardinghouse in Hakone, where her training (which is less strenuous now) continues. Her uncle, unfortunately, tries to look for her, and does things that typically would get you arrested here in the United States.
Thanks again for this old school anime!
ReplyDeleteKosuke would get away with his criminal acts more easily in the US. Corruption isn't nearly as endemic in Japan as it is in the US.
ReplyDeleteI was talking about the fact that he would have been charged with assault or attempted murder when he tried to run Yasuko off the road while she was on her motorcycle.
DeleteI know. And sadly, he could probably afford to buy injustice. :(
DeleteAnd to make matters worse, if the case did go to court, it would be his word against Yasuko's.
