Hey Columbo Fandom! What do you think the lieutenant’s reaction to encountering hentai for the first time would be? Like a criminal case has him finding the suspect’s absurdly large hentai library of a disturbing number of subgenres.
“You know sir, I couldn’t help but notice, when we were back in your study, you had a lot of…what"s the name..hentai, that’s right.”
“Oh…yes Detective. I…happen to be somewhat of a collector. I’m surprised you’ve heard of it.”
“Oh no sir, only barely. My wife, she’s the real expert - you know she’s got a bit of a collection too? Some real old pieces. She’s told me about how it all goes back to the end of WWII and this ban on conventional pornography in Japan or something…Oh, but I’m sure you know all about this sir. Actually it’s funny…you know the victim had a few of those, what’s it called, "postwar” pieces? I was surprised, he seemed like the type to look down on that sort of thing…I guess it was part of his art collection or something. Anyway, it turns out they’ve gone missing, around when the victim was murdered. You wouldn’t happen to have heard anything about that, would you? I only ask because it seems like you know a lot about this sort of thing.“
I lost one of my heels in a restaurant, but Columbo was dining nearby and gave me one of his shoes to wear before heading out. I put the shoe on, then felt bad and ran after him to return it, but when I caught up I saw the shoe he gave me was a black loafer, but the shoe he still had on was a brown boot. So I told him off for going to a nice restaurant wearing mismatched shoes.
