As Expected This Drama Isn't gonna be Dissapointing.

Continuing from the prequel, It makes me believe that the charm of this drama is on the Miyama -sensei and Sada -sensei. Eikura Nana as Tachibana -sensei was replaced by Kimura Fumino as Ozaki -sensei. At first I kinda doubt about the chemistry of the new character, but Ozaki -sensei played it well, she could fit properly in the plot and situation, her background story is also interesting, so there’s no problem for Miyama and Sada -Sensei.
Although the story is monotonacy of lawyers who won the crime case, but the scriptwriting is always making me amazed. Neatly and Interesting to watch, the dad jokes and puns are consistently be its speciality. I hope for 3rd season as well, very recommended and good job from the last season.

Better than the first

For me, the first season wasn't as good as the rating said. But I still watch this because I'm curious about Miyama's father. They have changed a few aspects and I have to say it worked. The focus of the story switched from the first season, more personal issues and the main enemy tends to be the judicial system itself. The jokes are also upgraded (especially that parody of the main title) and more refreshing. The role of Maiko Ozaki by Fumino Kimura was a good one - I felt that female lead had more chemistry than the first season. I also loved Nakatsuka, the new paralegal, because she brought more to the investigation.

However, the story still ran out of gas towards the end like the first season. Although it did not bore me, the story in the last episode is not as interesting as the other episodes of the drama. I think they have to find a way to keep me always interested until the last part!

Season two

The second season has lost two team members and added two. The cases are a lot more personal to them than season 1. I liked this aspect of the new season. What I did not like as much was the juvenile behavior of the male team members and the extended time spent with the puns. For me, this silliness was a distraction from the seriousness of the cases. That was probably the point to lighten the mood, but it was too much like 12 year olds’ sense of humor from grown men. I think they were trying to appeal to a younger audience and that part fell very flat for me. That being said, I still enjoyed watching the series. The team worked well together and they continued to mesh quirky traits to find that 0.1% truth factor. What I liked is they spent time showing how wrong judgments impacted the families and them personally. They showed how power can be misused and the work required to correct it. They were all challenged to do better and to make the system better and this, by far, outweighed the silliness factor I was not as enthused with. Humor is subjective, and I may be an exception to the rule about not receiving it well. The drama is worth the watch if this genre appeals and is a good extension from season 1.
