Spoilers: Sachie, a Japanese woman, opens a small restaurant in Helsinki, Finland. On one occasion her first customer, a young Japanophile, asks if she knows the lyrics of Gatchaman Opening. She doesn`t remember anything except "Dare da, dare da, dare da?", but it becomes an idee fixe for her to recall the words and she hums the melody continually. Suddenly Sachie sees a Japanese woman in the bookstore and decides to ask her the strange question Smile Yes, that woman knows the lyrics and writes it for Sachie. The scene ends with two singing woman and rather shoked other people who see them Smile One of the dialogues: - Why did you decide to invite the stranger? You don`t know me at all... - Hmmm... The person, who knows Gatchaman song, can`t be bad. I suppose... Kamome Diner (2006) - IMDb

Neat find, Yul! Thanks for sharing! I agree, anyone who knows the Gatchaman song can't be all that bad! LOL

I highly recommend to watch it. It`s a big surprise for me, how much time is devoted to the song.

Too funny! But a little sad that knowing the lyrics is seen as something of an 'obscure' thing....
