# General Character Guide for Tsuyoshi Shikkari Shinasai
# ------------------------------------------------------
# 
# This is the best series that I have seen this season!  It is fairly new
# comedy with around 16 episodes (I've only seen up to #13) but in the most
# current issue of Newtype that I have (January), it is tied for 3rd place
# in ratings with Crayon Shin-chan (also a fun show) at 16.9. 

Ok, you can do a Shin-chan summary too.. (^_^)

Their last name is Igawa.

# Keiko no onesan (hell bent for leather)
# ----------------------------------------

don't need the no.

# the older sister.  A chain smoking OL.  Makes a habit of getting totally
# smashed after work and dragging various objects/landmarks home in her 
# drunken haze.  The objects include bus stop signs, noren from restaraunts...
# She's the more vicious of the two sisters and has developed slapping into an
# artform.  She is supposed to be quite attractive (at least the cops in the
# local police box think so..) but the fact that she hasn't married 
# yet worries her mother.  Considering her short temper, it isn't very
# surprising.  She's generally the first to initiate any Tsuyoshi bashing fest
# that the other two will join in on.  She's also not very good at karoke..

Her voice is done by Tsuru Hiromi (Madoka, Bulma).

# Noriko
# ------
# the younger of the two sister.  Works at a fast food restaurant.  Not as
# good at slapping Tsuyoshi and almost appears to be "soft" compared to her
# older sister Keiko.  Has a "weird" thing for gaijin.

She's still in college.

# Watanabei-kun
# -------------
# Tsuyoshi closest friend (by default, since no other friends have shown up
# yet).  Watanabei is constantly trying to get to Tsuyoshi's sister, Keiko.
# (can you say "drooling, animal lust"?  I knew you could..)  Keiko on the
# other hand thinks Watanabei is a geek and a pervert.  He also supplies 
# Tsuyoshi with dirty magazines for the occasional favor.

It's Watanabe.  Watanabe and Tsuyoshi are at the bottom of their
class in studies and sports.

# Yumi-chan
# ---------
# Watanabei's kid sister.  She has a crush on Tsuyoshi and is very nice
# to him but she is "just a little too young" :)  Yumi is nice to Tsuyoshi,  
# but that is not to say that she is incapible of performing "the slap".
# She has demonstrated her ability (but not on Tsuyoshi).

Her voice is done by Mitsuishi Kotono (Usagi-chan).
Yumi-chan says that she will marry Tsuyoshi later.
