Story: Zen Ryoiki Ijo Kaiketsu Shitsu presents a blend of supernatural and investigative drama. The story follows Okitama Miyabi, a brilliant yet enigmatic investigator, as he leads a special agency tasked with resolving paranormal anomalies. The series delves into themes of truth, fear, social media, people’s dependence on them, and the unknown. Each episode explores a unique mystery tied to Japanese folklore. The pacing is solid, though some episodes feel more impactful than others.

Casting: Fujiwara Tatsuya’s performance was amazing, as always. In fact, he is one of the reasons I decided to watch the drama. The rest of the cast was decent, with some performances standing out more than others. Perhaps the secondary characters could have benefited from a bit more screen time.

Overall: I liked this drama because it explained some supernatural phenomena based on folklore and mythology, and the plot was engaging.
