Why

i have not yet read a kosaku kendaichi novel yet unfortunately, though some have now been released in english so that's at least easier
i tried watching a movie and am about halfway through.  i still have no idea what's going on
they do share the 'don't get me involved--wait i am intrigued' reaction.  and detective kosaku went to america.  that's all i got so far
Ethan=Isan-san
konbini=convenience store
Xander tries not to admit it, but that single episode of Case Files had a big effect on him.  A lot of this ‘I’m not like him, how dare you compare us!’ But also ‘I’m not like him, and that hurts’ stuff in this chapter is from him.  He’s actually been picking up a little about logical thinking from the occasional book read at the library when he’s actually supposed to be studying.
i also get complimented so rarely i don't have a clue what to do with it so that's personal experience
