ATARU 아타루   自閉天才ATARU

Inquiry

Print

Autistic savant, Ataru, has a very unique gift. He is capable of uttering “words” that help the police in their investigations “discover, observe, perceive and deduce” evidence they had hitherto failed to notice. In fact, like a chess genius, Ataru has the ability to think tens of moves ahead of the average person. While it’s obvious to anyone that his favorite foods are tomato ketchup and honey mustard, Ataru struggles with communication, often speaking in conundrums, behaving erratically and even lapsing into hysteric fits. While his uniquely-wired brain enables him to fire off “key words” that are integrally linked to solving crime, the task of piecing his utterances together like a jigsaw puzzle falls to Detective Maiko Ebina and superior officer, Sawa. Together, they create an unlikely and dynamic trio solving one case after another.
토마토 케첩과 허니 마스타드를 좋아하는 서번트증후군인 주인공 아타루. 그는 경찰도 눈치채지 못 한 범죄사건의 사소한 증거를 발견, 관찰, 추리하여 사건해결로 연결되는 단어를 내뱉으면서 사건 을 풀어낸다. 아타루는 언제나 타인의 사고보다 몇배나 앞서 생각하지만, 커뮤니케이션 능력에 문 제가 있어 그가 말하는 단어는 난해하고 이해하기 어려운 행동을 하기도 한다. 가끔씩 패닉증상을 보인다. 아타루는 특이한 두뇌로 다양한 사건의 범인과 사고의 원인으로 연결되는 키워드를 불규칙 적으로 말한다. 그가 내뱉는 퍼즐 조각을 맞춰가는 것이 형사 에비나 마이코의 역할이다. 아타루, 마이코, 마이코의 상사 사와, 세사람은 기묘하게 엮이며 한팀이 되어 매번 사건에 맞서지만….

ATARU:THE FIRST LOVE&THE LAST KILL

劇場版ATARU - THE FIRST LOVE & THE LAST KILL -

119 min.

New York. Ataru belongs to the Savant Program Branch of the FBI, which has just been hit by an explosive. Meanwhile, similar tactics have been used to blow up electric rail lines in Tokyo. Wheelchair-confined chief of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police, Akiho Hoshi, has just put agent Sawa and his team at the First Investigative Division on the case when Larry and Ataru appear on the investigation headquarters. According to Larry, the two bombing plots originated from a financial business zone in London, orchestrated via server by a computer virus dubbed "Wizard". The virus was developed by a Brazilian-Japanese named Madoka with whom Sawa and his force had previously crossed paths as a suspect in a serial murder case. Like Ataru, Madoka bears traits similar to those of a savant and was also formerly an SPB candidate who had received training. The two remotely perpetrated bombings put the FBI and Tokyo Metropolitan Police Agency in hot pursuit of Madoka.

So he recreates the meals of victims in an effort to understand them better in the course of his investigation, and invites suspects to a grand feast where he can smoke out the true criminal. His compassion and unwavering pursuit of criminals in the name of justice make him a new hero in the gourmet world. Meanwhile, constantly stressed to the max is his new partner, Azumi Nanase, who despite having fulfilled her dream of becoming a cop is diametrically different in personality and disposition from her partner. As a consequence, she is constantly stressed out being at the mercy of Captain Cook’s freestyle sleuthing style and having to salvage the peace between her partner and his rival detective, Nekota. Nevertheless, Nanase and Hoshimitsu together make a crack crime solving team.
