I loooovee this SP! So many funny scenes! And the musical, and the moral message at the end... 100/10! I wish they make more of these kind of drama. If you like this kind of drama, I'd recommend:

- Yutori Desu ga, Nani Ka? (2016, NTV)
- Brush Up Life (NTV, 2023)

Their similarities are they questioned or discussed way of life and current society's issues but in a comedic, light hearted way, but still able to deliver strong moral messages and life lessons but not in the patronizing way.

If you know any similar drama, kindly recommend to me!

So happy he got lots of scenes in the SP. His duet with Eguchi Noriko was so funny! I was laughing so hard XD

The universe feels small. Characters beside two brothers are like NPC. Cases are too simple to be two episodes. Even adding the revenge plot, the episode feels dragged and empty. I'm getting bored. Okada Masaki looks rather handsome here but I still don't like his character. In fact, I don't find any characters in this drama appealing.

I have watched too many j-drama not to think the culprit is gonna be Mocchan. But since he's getting too suspicious, it could also be Koike, Makoto's boss who is also the police officer who investigated the two bros parents' incident in the past.

Yes sometimes I’m reminded how fortunate I am to be born in better times

What a powerful drama and to think it was based/inspired by a real person. What a powerful performance by Toda Erika. What a powerful comeback. TBS’ Reboot was already such a good drama but this one, blew my mind. Combined with Netflix’s deep pocket, we could see they had unlimited budget to produce this drama. From the extensive sets, casts, extras, costumes and make ups, etc, it’s almost like Hollywood production, but made in Japan. It’s such a treat to see Toda Erika in different outfits, make up and hairdo. She’s such a beauty. And Ikuta Toma’s appearance in the later half of the series was a pleasant surprise. Overall powerful acting and story, I was completely fascinated with the characters and immersed in their world. In one word, ‘Jigoku ni Ochiruwayo’ is a masterpiece. 7.9 score really doesn’t reflect the true value of this drama. I’d give it 11 out of 10.

And inside him is the reincarnated Eito? Or it could be parallel world where Neo (reincarnated) vs Neo? Btw my suspicion is Sarasa was the one who pushed Neo down the stairs

Anyway this is giving me Ryusei no Kizuna’s vibe, minus the comedy. I hope Mo-chan is not the culprit 😣

I watched this without knowing anything expect the fact that Okada Masaki is in it, and the first few minutes almost gave me heart attack because I thought it’s horror story 😱

TBS really upped their game in recent years 😍 How is Fuji TV doing? I don’t think getsuku is the king of drama slot anymore.

Perfect ending. I love how in the last scene they show glimpse of their former selves/faces 😭 It’s so touching. 🤧

I wished they released it earlier. Well, as long as NF release it in my country I will watch again and support the series.

Why don’t they make this kind of drama anymore? This drama is sooo good. It’s episodic but not boring at all. The cases are interesting and there’s always shocking truth behind them. All the casts delivered! The characters are all interesting. I love the dynamic in the episodes whether it’s the story, script, scenes, or interaction between characters. Moral of the story is there too. Why oh why they didn’t make Season 2! And I like how they didn’t make someone absolute evil or angel. Because the reality we all live in grey zone and that’s why it’s not so simple black and white when judging someone. Anyway… 1000000/10!

Oh I love everything about this drama. My only complaint is, I wished they made Season 4 and more. This drama was solid, as expected from veteran casts and WOWOW's high production. Everything about is PERFECT. 10/10!

This is only for serious watcher. It's been a while since I watched a really good J-Drama with solid cast, production, and more than anything story and script. 10/10

Star studded + veteran ensemble cast. And it's WOWOW production. I had pretty high expectation, and they delivered. 10/10

I think Shison Jun's visual here is PEAK! And also in the other drama 'Fermat no Ryori'. Blonde hair suits him very well.

For real. The fact they’re desperately trying to force their own interpretation about the drama means the drama itself failed to convey/convince the viewers

True. Also the fact that Makiko did consult with Keisuke about their son’s shoplifting case and he came from another town to be there and helped them. Can anyone blame him for rushing to his pregnant wife because her water broke? Yeah he promised Masaki to stay with him but it was emergency and she was alone 🙄

There’s also time when Keisuke told Masaki ‘I’ll protect you.” Then Masaki asked, “What about mom?” And he couldn’t answer, until Junichi quickly responded, “Don’t worry. Everything will be alright.”

Is that scene supposed to make Junichi look cool?” How can he be so sure everything is gonna be fine? How is he supposed to protect Makiko in that situation?

I am those who believe we shouldn’t tell lies to children even if it’s white lies. Maybe he just wanted to assure the kid, but in the end she wasn’t fine because she KILLED a person, and she had to go to jail. Or what? Was he going to cover up her crime so she doesn’t go to jail, just like Naoto did?

So yeah, it might sound cool and kind but tbh it’s pretty irresponsible answer.

After watching ep9, that blonde long haired lackey low key pissed me off. I thought he was in the same side as Fuyuhashi (the Orphanage ‘family’). But he sold Fuyuhashi twice already. Worst he’s acting like he had no choice but to obey Goroku and didn’t think the consequences will be fatal to Fuyuhashi. Is he really dumb or he’s just feigning ignorance ☹️
