Blood ties
"Each person lives their own life passing on the desire to protect those dear to them to someone else".A Suffocatingly Lonely Death -based on the titular manga by Inoryuu Hajime (story) and Itou Shouta (art)- is a mystery drama about a crime committed in the Haikawa Mansion where the remains of 13 children were found.
Despite some plot conveniences and some exaggerating acting performances here and there, the series manages to weave a dark and intriguing story posing one main question: "What is family?"
It deals with quite a few sensitive subjects and moral dilemmas in a delicate way, managing to make the series an easy and entertaining watch full of twists and turns.
I think saying anything more will spoil the drama, but I believe that people who like series with darker themes will thoroughly enjoy this one.
Last but certainly not least, a big thanks to Luwuang for her great translation. She gave me along with many other people the opportunity to experience this series.

Nothing is as it seems in this deep, multilayered thriller
I just finished watching it, and it was such a great experience. It's been a while since a Japanese thriller has kept me this hooked.From the plot and promo images, I thought it would be the usual story about a psychopathic cult leader abducting kids to kill them, with a detective trying to catch him and that's it. But I was totally wrong. What really stood out was how the drama kept surprising me. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, new twists came in and changed everything. It felt like the case was solved in almost every episode, only for a completely different perspective to emerge in the next one.
Unlike many thrillers that can be predictable, this one was very complex and layered, with multiple cases tied together, making it a really gripping watch. The pacing was great, there was no filler, every episode was essential to the story.
Additionally, all the characters were very interesting and the eerie cinematography was great.
The music, especially the one at the end of the episodes was pretty good too!
I strongly recommend it.
