I found myself asking the same question. Then again, it’s pretty good publicity during a campaign.

I love the opening sequence with Kaga’s smile. The Iron Chef website was pretty useful. I found out who won the Pork Belly battle in the tie-break.

I was told by a friend that they don’t dub Chairman Kaga out of respect. If he’s just an actor, why is this done? Any ideas?
