Every crime has a motive: love, sadness, anger, disgust, etc. In the interrogation room, Shinno Akari is able to see these emotions and find the real culprit. She has the special power to see people's emotions in "colors". The "emotional investigation" has been scaled up from the previous work! She can see the emotions left in objects and places = residual emotions. She confronts a Thai murder suspect. Furthermore, her sister, who has regained her emotions, disappears and is put on the wanted list for the murder of an acquaintance. Akari continues her investigation to prove her sister's innocence. And two cases intersect... (Source: Japanese = ytv.co.jp || Translation = kisskh) Edit Translation

Reviews
Two seasons and a possible third for this?
I am so sorry to fans of this series but I *intensely* disliked this. Admittedly, I did not watch season 1 and went straight for season 2 because I'm a big Psychic Fever fan and was excited to see Kokoro in a bigger role, but judging from the flashbacks to season 1, I don't think I missed much and it honestly seems like season 1 is worse, if that's possible. And if you're like me and thinking of jumping in for Kokoro, be warned that he barely gets any screen time anyway.I think the biggest problem is that this drama takes itself WAY too seriously for how ridiculous the color-seeing ability is. If it had leaned into the absurdity more, I actually might have liked it, but instead it's played completely straight and everything is so dark and moody. The main character has almost no personality - if I'm being charitable, maybe we can interpret the lack of colors and emotions outside of the interrogations as a choice to amplify the colors and emotions that the main character sees, but I think that's a big stretch.
Also, I know I didn't watch season 1 where most of it goes down so I'm probably missing a lot of details, but I thought the plotline with Akari's sister was SO BAD. It doesn't help that both the sisters have such blank expressions on their faces the majority of the time that makes it impossible to invest in their story. It definitely did not make me want to watch season 1 to find out. And the fact that they teased a possible season 3 at the end actually pissed me off - what could there possibly be more to do with these characters???? Points I guess for this being an original concept instead of an adaptation of something, but this doesn't really make the best case for the quality of original stories.....
The only remotely redeeming thing about this was the cast. I normally like Iitoyo Marie and Asaka Kodai, so I'm disappointed that they're tied to this kind of project, and they don't even seem that invested in it themselves. And I'll usually take any scraps of Iwase Yoji, Nakao Masaki, and Fukumatsu Rin I can get, but I really don't think this is worth it.
If you want something with this kind of vibe and a somewhat similar main character, please just watch SPEC instead, omg.
