I wonder why this got quite a high rating when it is mostly generic. Tachiba is your ex delinquent generic character to the core. I must say, I give credit for this drama to actually show the medical stuff as secondary plot rather than main plot. Believe it or not, this is actually more of rom-com drama in hospital setting. 6.5/10

This drama looks like ur average generic HS drama. And it is. generic to the core. the only unique feature is the DTM plot. But the overall story telling is average at best. The side romance is generic too. But they are not the worst part of this drama because even with average story telling, u can still make a good drama. This drama is so boring because all the main girls cannot act at all. The acting are so weak that I suspected they must be from some Idol group and they are.
3/10

18 eps. 15min each. But it feels longer.
This drama is definitely targeted toward teenage girl.
From normal person POV, this drama is super cringe, generic with subpar acting
The ending is also very lazily written. Like ... that is it?
Though im not gonna lie, there are some funny moments
4/10

This is a remake that I didn't know that I didn't need at all. I wouldn't say they plot is bad because even for a remake, the plot is still good. But the worst part is none of them (except Eguchi) exude any charisma for the roles. TBH, most of the side characters lack airtime to even have personalities like in original. And Kame as Kikuta has zero aura compares to Nishijima and Nikaido Fumi feels so amateurish acting as late 20s Female Chief. She is not convincing at all. Make me miss late Takeuchi Yuko. 5/10

This is very generic GMMTV plot. 5/10

This drama should remain darker from start to finish. It lost it spark in the middle when things start to turn very plain, predictable and boring. Kano is low key a scum which didn't really feel any remorse for what he did to Sugisaki and Asakawa is just the plain usual female protagonist that make you go MEH. TBH, I will rate this better if Kano and Asakawa ends miserably since Kano didn't seem to have any redeem quality. 4/10

It started weak. I was bored for the 1st 3 eps. But the story started to pick up after that. I was both shocked and impressed. 7.5/10

Okay. The drama is actually giving an unexpected twist and turn on the 2nd half. I legit thought we gonna get the usual generic Jdrama plot line but they didn't. Im impressed. 8/10

It is very refreshing to see Thai BL that actually focus on actually plot instead of sex to sell the drama. They actually go deep into the actual. While the last ep can be seen a little bit rush by some, it is understandable why it is done like that. Of course it would be better if they show how Noey handles the conflict between him and Thi's parents but it still wrapped up nicely. 9/10

Crusty wig and stiff acting. And Itt personality is so grating. What happened to Day and Itt from Unforgotten Night? Look likes 2 different characters. 4.5/10

There are few gems in a sea of duds. 5/10

Mid at best. 5/10

It started good but went downhill later.
im disappointed by Sahara being a teacher but acting like that.
Minato from Coin Laundry did much better job as adult handling the situation after getting confession from HS student but he got hated for being responsible
6.5/10

This drama surprisingly good. I even find Inukai acting as support role is good here despite I really dislike him as main role. He cant carry. The investigation is simple and we are led to believe the main character deduction although his flaw is his deduction always falls short and somebody else taking the credit. What I like about this drama is that even from the get go, they acknowledge this and poking fun of the main character. But what I dont like is the dotei trope. It has been done so many times that it is not funny to me anymore. And of course make every case involved pretty girl so we can see his dotei-ness. Pretty much shrink the potential as it gonna be common predictable trope. 7/10

It only has 2 eps and basically offers nothing. Like where is the plot? it just looks like a simple project to put the actors out there. 2/10

Welcome to another season of jabami Yumeko winning all her gambling addiction. Too predictable for my taste. 6/10

For something "Base on true story" ... I found it ... dragging ... a lot. 4/10

How this is 8? Are people watching this for plot or just for the CP? The execution is very mid. 5/10

To sum this drama up "A cliche predictable storyline with subpar acting". Even after a decade, Alan really can't act. 5/10

This drama is actually great at the main plot, which is work life balance is important. Even till now, a lot of older generation think you should work unpaid overtime everyday for at least an hour. That is what I was told by my boss when I finished my internship. Because I was the only one that finished my work everyday and went back on time. When I got my 1st job, my senior said working 8hrs per day should be enough to finish ur job. If u can't finish ur job within that period of time, then something wrong with your style of work. Paid leaves are your entitlement. You should not be ashamed of taking it. While working in Asia, Im glad that I worked in Western company where what our FL was doing is the norm. Japan works culture is really one of the worst, aside from China. Fukunaga is exactly the kind of person from his generation where u can find anywhere in this world who likes to push unreasonable demand to their workers.

While the main plot is great, the side plot of FL romance is not. Like nah. That so cliche and so predictable. They can just remove that romance plot because let be honest, it is tiring and boring. The side plot affected my rating of this drama greatly. 6.5/10
