So the case remains unsettled & we didn't learn any things abt the man in the end, as I expected & wanted. The man is like the devil himself, bringing misfortune anywhere he goes. His chr reminds me a lot of johan liebert from monster. I'm still curious & thinking abt the way he chose his victims tho. This whole show is pure psychological which is rare & well done imo. Kagawa teruyuki is so mesmerizing in his role as he plays different chrs in each ep; just brilliant acting, esp with his eyes. Anne nakamura is also excellent in this one which I'm quite surprised becuz her acting is pretty average in her other works as far as I've seen. Overall 10/10 from me; thanks hpriest again for finishing this.

This kind of drama is just right up my alley. I love how they're doing things here; acting, direction, camera angles, chrs & their story so on. I believe the final two eps also would not fall short of masterpiece. This is gonna be a wild ride man. Most of all I'm so much thankful to hpriest as always for subbing this, otherwise I would not be able to watch & enjoy this.

Still same high quality thriller(maybe even better) as previous season. Just brilliant. Many many thanks to hpriest for subbing this gem.

Yuina is just mesmerizing in this one. The plot is quite crazy but the performances made up for it. I just can't help but ended up watching it in one go.

It's quite bad if we apply mdl standard rating system; at least that is what I personally think. I've watched kdramas & cdramas which are very mediocre & forgettable and yet it's rated still high with the rating of at least 7.5/7.6. Yeah, jdramas are criminally rated low here on mdl imao. When it comes to jdramas, reading comment section is the only & best way to figure out whether the drama is worth your time or not. Sorry for long reply; I don't normally rant this much but today I'm a little more sensitive than usual. Just my personal take, anyway.

Mdl ratings are really a joke; when it comes to kdramas, it's rated so high even the average & mediocre ones, and yet when it comes to jdramas, it's always criminally low even the best ones. I'm not saying this's the best one but it definitely deserves more than this. I normally don't care much abt mdl rating but still can't help feeling pissed off.

DOTS= drama of the season. It just simply means that this drama is personally my most fav one among airing dramas during the particular season/period. Sorry if it confuses you😅.

This is such a gem. It only gets better & better with each ep. I also love the theme & its message is delivered naturally without being preachy or stupid motivational words/phrases. I also love the chrs & their interactions, very natural & strong chemistry among them; last but not least kudos to the actors that portray their chrs masterfully & naturally without going overboard, especially kubota masataka & kobayashi toranosuke. If they deliver this same quality till the end, it'll definitely be DOTS for me personally & another addition to my all time favs for sure.

Quite average crime drama. There is no element in this show that is making me wanna continue watching this. Predictable, convenient & mediocre cases with not really strong chemistry & dynamics among okura team, so far.

I don't mind slowburn dramas or movies as long as they're interesting & well written. But this one is just slow & messy, not burning enough. After watching ep6, I'm out for good. I can't really stand the chrs in the show, mainly the profiler dad with very bad personality & work ethic.

I don't know what direction they're trying to go for. A messed up family drama, or psychological crime drama?? They didn't succeed at both so far. And personalities of both father & daughter is total shit to root for/care for. Tbh I don't even find both main chrs that interesting or intelligent as they're portrayed to be. However I'm still quite interested in mystery aspect so 'll stick around I guess.

First ep is kind of average to me. Still I'll abide by 3eps rule to see if it'll get better, I guess.

Takano's chr is neither funny nor interesting to me. Tho personally I'm more interested in other chrs and their interactions so I'll keep watching it for the time being I guess.

I avoid watching this one for quite a long time becuz I'm not particularly interested in watching films abt old people(& also kids); I thought it would be boring to watch a movie abt an old woman who wanna be a poet, based on sypnosis. And I finally watched it & I was proven totally wrong. It's definitely slow paced but not one dull moment for me; I can easily see why this is mostly regarded as best lee chang dong's movie. Solid 10/10 for me.

Thank you for subbing this! I'm enjoying the duo & the cases so far.

Only 2 eps left to watch. Srsly this drama keeps getting better with each new episode & gradually makes me getting immersed in story & chrs. This might end up being DOTS for me personally if they land the ending well.

Not worth the hype imo. Everything goes quite smoothly in a very predictable way that there is almost no tension or surprise at all. Is it just me or k cinema is starting to decline downwards? Their movies these days are overhyped & all abt marketing with no real substance & failure to deliver the hype. No offense to actors tho; it's just the plot, direction & execution thing as a whole.

It's interesting to see how those scams work & that's it. Chrs are not well written or fleshed out enough imo; they don't feel like humans at all given they don't seem to have no personality at all except of just being a scammer. Honestly I don't even care whichever happens to any chrs including takumi who's the main chr with a tragic past yet it's hard to connect or sympathize with him becuz his chr is so badly written imo. Harrison is no exception either; he is ruthless & evil psychopath becuz that's who he's supposed to be for the plot to move forward,we learn nothing abt him as a human after all. 7/10 at most; worth a one time watch only if you got time to spare & no other choice to go for.

Unnecessarily long & melodramatic,and yet so little emotional impact. It's hard to judge minami & ryosuke's acting becuz the story itself wasn't executed well. Totally passable movie imo.

So I rewatched this masterpiece for second time & it just reaffirms my immense love for this drama. Personally I don't think there would be another kdrama which can hit me right in feels at this level again let alone surpass this. Everything is just perfect. I'm the type who rarely rewatches dramas & yeah this drama is one of a few shows which I wouldn't mind rewatching whenever I feel like.
