After nearly two months of reading, I just ended Cuticle Tantei Inaba. It took me so long because I wanted to read it forever. The story is unbelievably funny (but not stupid), although not all the time - the main plot is really deep but "plot chapters" don't happen that often. But it's not annoying, waiting a bit for those "plot chapters" makes them only better to read. CTI made me cry a lot of times, especially the latest volumes. After a few chapters I felt like I knew the characters. Every chapter has had "something" - sometimes it was a hilarious plot, sometimes a great mystery. Butevery time I enjoyed it to the fullest. At the end it gets a bit darker, but funny parts are still there. Besides, art is just wonderful. At times serious, at times not - the author did it just right. Personally, I've saved a lot of pages just because they look so good. Long story short, Mochi-sensei did a great job. I would recommend it to anyone who likes to laugh but also wants something clever from the story. It's a really hairtastic manga.
Private Detective Hiroshi Inaba is an artificially-created being, formed by splicing the genes of both a human and a wolf, who gains information by tasting and examining people's hair, and pretty much has a hair fetish. He can transform into a more wolf-like form, and also gain special powers and perform different attacks depending on the type or color of hair he eats. Formerly employed by the police and partnered with an officer, he now runs his own private detective agency with the help of his sadistic, cross-dressing secretary Yuuta (often mistaken for a girl), and Kei (a "relatively" normal teenager working part-time at the office. Ogino, the officer formerly partnered with Hiroshi, also often helps out with cases. His arch-enemy is Don Valentino, an evil mastermind goat with a taste (literally) for money, and a variety of messed up but extremely devoted henchman, including gentleman samurai Laurence, who always wears a bag over his head. Most chapters are individual stories revolving around Hiroshi and his friends trying to arrest the Don, always failing miserably.
