Deka Wanko 2012 SP (Drama Notes)

Here are some drama notes from Deka Wanko 2012 SP and pop cultural references that explain some of the inside jokes and scenes. If I missed out on something, well... sorry, this is all I could gather (spoilers ahead):

"Mito Komon." Much beloved TV show that started in 1969. It just ended late last year so the network that had been showing it, TBS (which is the network of Deka Wanko as well) sorta paid tribute to it via this special. The main character Mito Komon is Mitsukuni, the nephew of Tokugawa Ieyasu. He disguises himself as a rich retired crepe merchant, and roves the countryside, instilling order and peace whenever problems and struggles erupt among the social classes.

Deka Wanko SP (NTV, 07 Jan.) is a one hour and a half special. In it, Goth-loli detective Hanamori Ichiko (Tabe Mikako) goes to Paris where she meets three of her co-members from Section 13. Hoping to have a 'love encounter,' Ichiko instead chances upon a woman named Leticia who happens to have a Japanese boyfriend named Shige. They do some sight-seeing together and eventually go their separate ways. However, for some reason, she feels concerned about her new friend and goes in search of her. As she wanders through the streets and tunnels of Paris, she suddenly finds herself in a strange place... which turns out to be her country during the days of the Edo Period... From modern Paris to feudal Japan, how did Ichiko end up in such a bizarre situation?
