Yoshio Iwamura is a newspaper-magazine journalist, who has a classic case of check obsessive compulsive disorder, commonly fearing he forgot to put out a cigarette or a kettle, or turn the water off. He ends up rushing back to his house to make sure he hasn't flooded or burned down his building. As a treatment, Irabu takes him to a rival hospital (they stole one of his patients, and are corrupt), where Irabu encourages Yoshio to throw rocks at the hospital. Irabu points out the Hospital Director's car and suggests they loosen the tire bolts. After Irabu throws a rock, and after hesitating, Yoshio throws a rock only to break a window, they both then flee. Because of his disorder, Yoshio is moved to another magazine, this time a teen mag, popular with Girls. He is sent to investigate into a man called the "Homeless Poet" who turns out to be a fraud, and uses the article on him to lure girls. Upon finding out Yoshio gets infuriated and tracks him down, the final chase takes Yoshio running with the Homeless Poet's bag, and trying to get the hospital director to stop after worrying that Irabu has loosened the tires. He jumps in front of the car, where the homeless poet tackles him, spreading papers onto the cars windscreen, the director then crashes the car, and medical waste pours out, and upon looking at the papers that came out of the homeless poet's bag, finds out he's using his dead family records to help Illegal immigrants into Japan. Yoshio then does an article on the two Thugs and immediately becomes a famous reporter again. Irabu thanks Yoshio for exposing the corruptness of the rival hospital, and offers to let him meet Bando, Irabu tells Yoshio that his disorder did good, made him famous, and that he'd be ok if someone was home. On his way home, Yoshio finds an add for a share house. After the injection, Yoshio is represented as a raccoon. (Source: Wikipedia)
