Jon Martinez Dec 01 2011 11:20 pm Iam not a native speaker of Japanese I only know I a few words but may I just say when UTB launched here in the U.S they began broadcasting Aibou and I thank heaven they did this is a GREAT SERIES and my only complaint is their aren't any international dvds or consistant uploaders so I could see the series as a whole i rather hard to catch it on a daily bases and Im now wondering where the heck Kameha is ( havent gotten past season 6 )

YUSUKE YAHAGI, M.D. Jun 04 2010 9:24 pm Dear sirs, I am a heart surgeon in Victoria, Texas, U.S.A. I am originally from Kawasaki, Japan. I speak fluent Japanese. I am an avid fan of "Aibo". I have been trying to purchase all the Aibo DVD's at any chance I can. I bought the entire season 4 last time when I was in Japan. I have been trying to get all the parts of different series whenever I have a chance to go to a store which handles Japanese DVD's but it is very difficult since I live 2 hours from a major cities and I am on call for my hospitals 7 days a week. I am dying to meet with Mr. Ukyo Sugishita. I would love to hear from your station. Thank you for delivering an excellent entertainment to my life where my life is very stressful because of hard surgeries I have to perform every day. I get great relaxation when I watch Aibo and I watch the Aibo DVD's over and over. Thank you. Yusuke Yahagi, M.D. Chief, Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery 2700 Citizens Plaza Suite 403 Victoria, Texas 77901 U.S.A. 361-212-9995.
