[edit] Character details

The official site gives both 28 and 32 for Kobayashi's age. I've gone with 28 because that's on the pop-up bio.

I'm also not sure how to translate the job titles for Kobayashi and Sugawara. Kobayashi's editorial specialisation is given as 風俗 fūzoku, lit. customs or manners. Sugawara's appears to be 張り班 harihan, for which I can't even work out a literal translation. Can anyone help?

Fūzoku in this context refers to the sex industry. Harihan is short for harikomi-han, where harikomi is stake-out or surveillance, and han is a group or a squad.--Mikeats 15:46, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
