The drama was an interesting mystery ride. Although the connecting threads of the old and new cases were a bit predictable but I liked the writing style despite some flaws.
The characters on the other hand weren't captivating except for Hiroyuki and the way Kora Kengo made it look like. The main lead wasn't exactly appealing but Kamikawa convinced me.
And darn that soundrack! It still rings in my ears until now! What an impressive music note for a mystery drama. I swear that Marks no Yama wouldn't feel the same without it!
I am worried now, especially since I hold high hopes for this one...
Why would you hold high hopes for it in the first place? You weren't expecting something like the previous Crows Zero now, did you? If you were then I advice you to lower down your hopes or you will be disappointed Rou.
Here's a supreme intensity on legs! God, he's such an intense actor who knows how to use his eyes in a perfect way. I am definitely keeping an eye on this one.
Generation next of younger Japanese actors isn't full of idols after all, we have some pretty darn good talents to follow!
after watching 1st episode... is yuuya yagira a great actor??? I just witness a murder there, his one on one scene…
Yagira is a rising star. Amongst the younger actors like Ikematsu, Higashide and Sometani; he's really doing well by climbing that difficult ladder of success. And by success, I mean great acting skills not some stupid idol playing around.
Would everyone please stop changing the cover photo? It's still the ONLY official poster even if you think it's bad.
This is just a notice, I will make sure that every cover submission for this drama will be denied by me or my fellow approval moderators.
That was one amazing review! To think that you actually like romantic movies made by Wong Kar Wai makes me want…
You should Erin, not only because I love him but I am sure that his style will suit your taste completely. I remember you already watched something or two made by him so try others!
This such a great article Reise! We need more of these in MDL!
My personal thoughts about Koreeda directing style aren't as vast, I only saw two of his pictures. It's probably because the slice of life share that he's so fond of directing doesn't fall under my field of interests. However, Air Doll definitely got me tripping.
Once again, thanks for the guide!
I like the idea of the article but I would take lovely Mr. Darcy before Jun Pyo any freaking day. and let's not talk about Jan Di now shall we? Because anything is better than her!
I made few of my friends drama watchers (not addicts) and I kind of regret it because they can be pushovers and I always liked watching my dramas alone. Let's not forget that all of them are either rom-com or melo lovers which is not my thing at all.
