Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan - Episode 9 (TV Drama)
Poaching Seashore (密漁海岸, Mitsuryō Kaigan) is the ninth episode of the TV drama series Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan. It adapts the one-shot Poaching Seashore and the "Let's Go Eat Some Italian Food" story arc from Diamond is Unbreakable.
An Italian restaurant quietly opened near Rohan's house. Rohan and Kyoka visit the restaurant and meet Tonio Trussardi, a chef with the mysterious ability to heal his patrons' physical ailments through his cooking. Tonio proposes a plan to Rohan for poaching the legendary Hyogara black abalones, which is said to be able to cure any disease. In fact, Tonio has a fiancée, Hatsune Morishima, who is suffering from a serious illness.
Summary
Two men lie down at the Hyogara Rocks, exhausted from their attempt to poach an abalone. They had tried to get to the other side of the Hyogara Rocks where the abalones are, but they failed since security was tight with several cameras. The older man gloats about a foreigner they found being an easy target; they tricked him by saying they had connections to a fishery cooperative and could get an abalone from the Hyogara Rocks for him. The man realizes they could just buy one from the fishing port nearby and then sell it to the foreigner, thinking he'd even buy it for a million yen. His younger partner praises him for being a genius and they both start laughing until they are told to shut up by another man nearby. The younger man recognizes him as Rohan Kishibe. Rohan was researching the rare Japanese mitten crab species that lives in the area to sketch it, but they're very nervous and only briefly show themselves early in the morning. Rohan was hiding there overnight waiting for one to appear, and just when he thought it did, the men's loud voices scared it away. Learning that Rohan is a manga artist, the older man suggests that he should just look up images of the crab on the internet, which angers Rohan. Rohan explains how he needs realism for his manga, even if it's just a small animal that appears in one panel, and chews on a lugworm to prove it. Disgusted, the men attempt to take their leave, but Rohan stops them, using Heaven's Door to read their biographies. He writes a command in them saying to "watch the sea for Rohan", so that he won't be disturbed by them in the future.
