I don't know when the subtitled version will come out (or where), but I am just putting this out here.

I watched the first 3 episodes, it's actually a really fresh concept and is very interesting. It's supposed to be realistic and it is for the most part but not to the point of being too serious that you're gonna cry - It has intentionally funny moments from time to time which is imo a good thing when dealing with that subject in a TV series. the creator has a brother on the spectrum AFAIK. I would love to watch the next episodes but can't cause I can't find pirated versions of them anywhere...
