Why is the male lead a 58 year-old man?

Okay, art style seems interesting, nice shading there. Characters, a little auspicious, need more character detail, I suppose. Like how it seems the main character's face is going to be obscured by a briefcase the whole time. Near the end...okay, it suddenly got weird. This is definitely a Shinbo product now.

Its actually an adaption. But the original manga/anime is from the same person that did Kyōran Kazoku Nikki, and that was an absolutely crazy show and I'm looking for more of the same here.
<3 Kana Asumi and KanaHana in this.

Yes. That's definitely Houchuu Ohtsuka, at least.

KanaHana can either be wonderful or grating, depends on the role and how she's directed. Her tired and lethargic roles like this aren't my favorite. Kana Asumi is always fantastic though, it's a pleasure hearing her voicing an excitable character.

Is he even actually the main character? Isn't he more a plot device than anything else?
