Let's appreciate: J-Movies and Dorama fansubbers! Shogo Kai, a brilliant but arrogant lawyer focused solely on winning, is up for senior partner at a top Japanese law firm, on the condition he mentors a junior associate. After dismissing several candidates, he meets Daiki Suzuki, a gifted young man with a troubled past and photographic memory. Barred from taking the bar exam due to a cheating scandal, Daiki survives by doing shady gigs until his grandmother's illness forces him to seek real work, leading to an unexpected opportunity with Shogo Kai.

Story. The story is... Okay. I don't think the cases were very original, but the underlying main plot concerning the main protagonists was interesting. The cast is not too original either, but the dorama does make a decent job at getting you attached to them if you stick around long enough. I'd say this series' strongest point is Kai and Suzuki's relationship, how their interactions as a mentor-pupil eventually lead to their growth (well, mostly Suzuki). Other than that, characters are rather flat and the romance sub-plots are very poorly developed, to the point it feels forced.
Acting & music. It felt pretty awkward and forced most of the time, although the cringy lines might have a lot to do with that. As for the music, it was extremely bland, so much so it sometimes detracted to the tension the scene was trying to build. If I had to describe it, it'd be elevator music. If you've watched it, you know what I'm talking about.
Enjoyment & rewatch value. Don't get me wrong, it's not like it can't be an enjoyable watch, despite it being a technically very mediocre dorama. It can be a fun thing to watch ironically with a friend, or try to count the times romantic tension is built between Kai and Suzuki, despite the writers' efforts to insert hetero romance. It can be fun to watch it again after a long while with the same mindset. But if you're expecting a serious lawyer series, this is not for you.
