List of Welcome to Irabu's Office episodes


This is a list of television episodes from the Japanese cartoon series Welcome to Irabu's Office (空中ブランコ?, Kūchū Buranko, Japanese for "Flying Trapeze"), based on the Psychiatrist Irabu series of short stories. The only season of the show aired between October 15 and December 24, 2009 and consisted of 11 episodes. It has been released on DVD with English subtitles in region 4 on February 18, 2011.

Mitsuo Tanabe is a successful businessman who owns the Great Japan Newspaper Company, and the Mighty Japan Great Powers Baseball team (that Bando is a member of) who suffers from a panic disorder where he gets flashbacks. When he turns up to Irabu's office after the events of the last episode, he is given an injection. Both Irabu and Mayumi are shocked that he hasn't turned into an animal. The calendar goes back to December 17, where Bando has his first problems with his Yips, after the game Mitsuo is confronted by media that ask him questions on an apparent scandal that he has influence over the leader of a political party, and that he's made him postpone tax changes. The flashes from the journalist cameras start to disturb him, and he has flashbacks to the post war Tokyo, and moments afterwards including the construction of the Tokyo Tower, and the first Bullet Train service, as well as moments in the 1960s and 70s, he then faints. His doctor (Dr. Ikeyama from another episode) refers him over to Dr. Irabu.
