In Japan in the mid 90's, a special breed of low-budget TV drama was born (and died). To those who even know of them, these shows are known as area code dramas, because for a certain time slot, several regions of Japan got their own unique drama that the other regions did not get to see, and each of these dramas was named after the telephone area code of its broadcasting station. The area code drama was the brainchild of Kenji Kasai (笠井一二, that's probably the wrong reading) of Antinos Records. (Antinos is the prefix 'anti' plus 'sony' spelled backwards, purportedly.[http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%A8%E3%83%94%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AC%E3%82%B3%E3%83%BC%E3%83%89%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A3%E3%83%91%E3%83%B3#.E3.82.A2.E3.83.B3.E3.83.86.E3.82.A3.E3.83.8E.E3.82.B9.E3.83.AC.E3.82.B3.E3.83.BC.E3.83.89])
