Recently, I've been watching this and thinking . . . they are my new favorite "combi"!
You are so cute and squishable with that adorable look on your face . . . and, hey, Aiba . . . you're looking pretty cute, too.
I really like the way these two interact on Aiba Manabu. I don't know what kind of comedian Sawabe is when he's with his regular partner, but he seems like a sweet, funny, enthusiastic guy.
They are like two happy puppies-except one doesn't have as much fur as the other. Or something like that.
Cutest parts of the show?
. . . When Sawabe makes his case as to why Aiba should choose him as his takenoko-picking partner-it's because "I love takenoko!"
. . . Aiba crouches by the side of the road looking for a four-leaf clover, unaware that he is being observed, commented upon, filmed-and that this childish moment WILL be broadcast.
