interesting start, both mains r pretty strong character's - and this is a newer plot then the ones we usually get in BL's. refreshing? interesting? intriguing - yeah to all of the above.. Ju (Judah ) is a tough character to like - he is abrasive and his condescending, arrogant attitude doesn't endear him. and yet too me his "bitchy" personality is an armor - it's walls built to keep people out - to push them away, before they get too close and might end up hurting him. it's his defense against the word - he wants to come off over confident (and maybe he is), but there is also a ton of insecurity. so a strong and yet intriguing character that is all bravado at the start - with the barbered quips and biased observations. so can't wait for him to lower his guard, and let u see the "heart" that beat's underneath (indicator, his developing a conscience and writing Rocky's name on the pass at the end). **********************************************************************************************************************btw Ju sure he gay?!? buff dude working out inches from his nose, and he reading? (╹ڡ╹ ) *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Rocky - man of mystery and few words. comes in like a thief in the night and steals our - well everyone's included jaded Ju's focus lol... they were butting heads from the word go, and it was interesting seeing the potential there. also liked that Rocky wasn't turned-off by Ju's abrasive attitude, but gave as good as he got, without becoming defensive or turning out to be the stereotypical machoman. he was pretty laid back and cool, even after finding out Ju lied about the "pass". ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - saw a reaction from a gay person, that didn't like Ju cause "his character's is a bad-stereotype of what gay person is..." in their eye's. if there was any stereotyping - i think Beshie kinda takes the cake and yet - as there r people like Beshie around - let alone he wasn't a caricature (or used as a bad-joke) but just a character, that was out, proud and loving it effeminately - i didn't find anything in him, Ju or anyone for that matter - that was used derogatorily to the community in general IMHO

so confused - what does she mean she wont live until her next birthday - won't by choice? or she in danger - ugh!!!! this is why the subs being bad is really frustrating - and why Fujishima cry when his Chairman told him (i think) that he didn't need to resign, as the CDT were needed (cause they saved his son and were important) was there a threat in there? that i didn't get those tears of joy?!? ******************************************************************************************************************and if Takamori went to another hospital just so his illness would be kept a secret, how did that douche doctor find out, and pass on the info to Makabe ?!??? *****************************************************************************************************so frustrating that halfway into the drama and still more questions then answers... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw totally cute that Byakuya has fallen for Masaki - obvious as he is the one that not only saved her, but took her in and gave her a home and family. there was a sec where i was sure he was crushing on Maria. but doesn't seem so, or it's one sided and now he seems more interested in her brother and the mystery surrounding Byakuya. then romancing Maria. so i don't think this will turn lovey-dovey. pity, there too many potential couples ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - idk who child or adult, would confuse a sweet little ladybug to that humongous scary ass spider. seeing Masaki holding it in that plastic baggy, freaked me the frack out. as a kid or adult i would run screaming bloody murder, in the other direction seeing that thing - i donno what that kid was on, to think that was cute and "capture" worthy, i shudder thinking about it

this is so good, to think this is So freakin good with bad sub's - how great is this really?!?? when u accurately get what's going on... oh well, it is what it is... doubt this will get re-subbed anytime soon, and even though not yet at the end Know this is a rewatch (with the hope's of finding it correctly subbed). *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************really love how the CDT member's have come together - even Sendo the Neurosurgeon, who is under Makabe was more loyal to the new group he chose to join - that was fun and sweet to watch, how they were trying their best to win against the JMA representative's. ****************************************************************************************************************************************and again in-spite of the subs this was heartwarming and breaking aLl in one - really great acting by all. love how they humanize the interactions between patient's and doctor's - well they show u the normal attitude (i.e reality🙄) and then the more personalized/humanized version cause of Byakuya - and the other member's wanting to explain emotions and day to day things, that she doesn't seem to comprehend. ***************************************************************************************so her revel/confession at the end was sad and yet makes u wonder what is really going on - where and why was she raised - cause to-date any scene where u see a child/human in a white room existing alone. it's someone that is treated as a lab-rat and experimented on - make's getting "what Is going on" all the more complex and intriguing

another great bitter sweet ep and that's saying something, considering the sub's. yeah the cloak and dagger stuff is going over my head, as i donno what is going on, who is against whom and how everything is connected, let alone if it's connected.there some indicator's, but is this all one plot-line or not, i really can't figure it out with the little info i'm able to clue out in every ep. but the side stories that r introduced in every ep r easy to figure out and hard not to get invested in - even with the language barrier. so yeah a very heart breaking and warming ep like the previous one. ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also like that finally not only Maria, but the rest of the CDT member's trust Byakuya and r turning to her or at least open to listen to what she is saying, and not writing her off and pushing her aside. even though she has moments where she seems shady, i don't think she is motivated by "evil" (for a lack of a better word lol) so i hope whatever is going on will come to light.... (and i aint talking about despicable Makabe coveting the Hospital director position - anyone with eye's get's his motivation - but to what lengths has he gone and is he involved in Yuki's and "Dr. White" situation/mystery idk).

another guessing game of an ep and yet what started out very weird, turn heartbreakingly sweet... those people who acted like they related to "Dr. White" and tried to more or less abduct her - that whole scene was so weird - Masaki and Maria rushing to believe stranger's, let alone hand over all that info about her and if it was determined by Maria, she would've happily pushed Byakuya/"Dr. White" into her abductor's open arms, no questions asked. thankfully Masaki caught on that something was suspect, and also Byakuya/"Dr. White" aint that big of a pushover (even though she comes off like that sometimes). makes me think she knows more then she is letting on. and with that end, i really don't know what is going on and why Yuki (Maria's older brother) is on the run and talking about life and death situation's - WTH is going on in that hospital frustrating not picking up any clues, that will give me sliver of a lead bad subs at fault or good writing idk lol ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the warm hearted part was the kid obviously - poor baby was putting on a strong front so he could support his mother or not burden her. how heartbreaking for someone so small to carry such a burden all alone - but Byakuya's innocent approach is what broke through his walls and enabled that team to finally come together and help that boy - about freakin time (what with shady Hitoshi lurking at every turn )...

another ep where the sub's leave A Lot to be desired - but something better then nothing. that being said Maria is a bit over the top, and it's starting to grate - she keeps screaming at everyone and i think it's gonna be a running theme everyone, rushing to shut "Dr. White" up. and i get she not a doctor per-say - heck she a patient with amnesia. but even an average-jane like me, get's that she making the right diagnosis time and again - while the certified doctors in that hospital r a bad joke, that keep going around like blundering fools or worse pompous asses, that know it all while miss-diagnosing patient's left right and center.so shouldn't someone who has seen her in action, not rush to shut her up?!! but try to figure out what she is saying and why - just so no patient's end up dead?!? but i guess placating over inflamed ego's is more important?!? ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and i guess this a comedy as some of the acting is overacting and badly done for comedic effect - which isn't coming off well what with the weird subs or the serious plot. with the mystery surrounding "Dr. White" let alone the conniving underhanded Head of surgery Makabe. but as this a guessing game maybe there r some answer's that i'm missing idk

1st off what i found was subbed badly - something better then nothing, so not complaining - just making this point clear. ****************************************************************************************************************************************when heard of this months ago, was really interested cause the description reminded me of Hyochakusha (not word for word - but the broad outline is similar), and that was a blast. so this made me curious. considering the troublesome subs, after watching the 1st ep, have to say this still more a mystery. cause i donno if something important wasn't subbed or was subbed wrong.********************************************************************************************************************************* having said that, this was fun and funny (donno if this supposed to be a comedy) but i laughed a lot and the actress playing "Dr. White" is adorable and hilarious (even though there were bit's that were plot-holey) and again hard to really leave a review of what's what, as it was a guessing game - ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but the basic's r hard to miss. like the bad-guy Makabe Hitoshi who i guess is trying to kick out Hospital director Takamori. cause in this 1st ep there were a hell of a lot of misdiagnosis that endangered people's lives. and that doesn't seem normal - to have So many incompetent doctor's in one place, so think Makabe is behind it all - only for the director's position? some other devious plan? **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************who "Dr. White" is, why she suffer from amnesia and yet is capable of retaining extensive medical knowledge. how or why was she "left" for Masaki the reporter to find. let alone how she connected to Yuki the missing son of Hospital director Takamori (why he go missing in the first place, as he left on his own ) a lot of open questions. but this a huge puzzle given the subs - still interesting

hmm felt like a little bit of drama in this ep - didn't get why throughout he never found a chance to mention his family or wife, to the flirty "full of life" lady - yeah she kept saying "joking" at the end of her offers. but why do i have a feeling that if he looked anything but stupefied, she would've welcomed him with open arms?!? ironic that all through this, i was worried about Ritan so not my favorite ep to date. neither the food nor the double entendre hinted at throughout this ep, gave me the warm and fuzzies

took me a while to make-up my mind to continue watching this - what with how it ended in the previous ep and it was bitter sweet - ironically for-tellable... just was sure the "grand-gesture" would come from Kurokawa. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but before get to that - have to say, i really don't like Hiyama (and i know i'm bias towards Kurokawa), so it's obvious why i dislike his advisory and maybe cause of that, everything he does is viewed with tons of skepticism - like the whole incident with Aono. i don't think he was that praise worthy - yeah Aono was in a risky situation. but Hiyama startling him, put him in more danger - in my POV. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Kurokawa and Yukiko, i "get" both their POV's - i just wish they used their words and didn't end up having truthful conversation with themselves - what is the point? ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************at the start of any relationship, when u really love someone and r finally in a happy place with them. u don't want anything to come between u - and a sacrifice such as a promotion, letting that go doesn't feel like a sacrifice. cause there is something more important in ur life. that u can't give up. ****************************************************************************************************************************************as an adult that has been supporting himself since he was a child, Kurokawa knows what he wants and what's important to him. Yukiko should've voiced her worries/insecurities instead of pushing him away, hoping he would chose work over her. and in her case it was more running away from the situation, let alone deciding what's good for Kurokawa, instead of hashing it out and working through the problem. ****************************************************************************************************************************************the argument "it's for my partner's good, so it doesn't matter if i hurt them in the short run..." is a tedious plot-point, over done trope and and not really praise worthy . be truthful and voice ur worries, but it is what it is... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the sister, she's sweet - but dude u aint a man - so Shishio wont ever see u as anything but a good bff - she keeps shooting herself in the foot with her delusions. so can't feel sorry for her

must ask WTAF is going on?!? in the previous ep pointed out how annoying and tedious i find all the grand self sacrificing and ironically the out and proud dude, is the one with a "beard" in this ep and i'm confused - why? what happened between him going to get Hyun Woo's desk, and that girl wanting a "favor" (btw if she the new gf - she NOT praise worthy, sorry if i'm mean - but she looks like she's a wrestler that could take Ji Seok out - more bully then gf material...) to him suddenly back-tracking and avoiding Hyun Woo - why? this his way of protecting him?!? cause the bullies targeted Hyun Woo and not Ji Seok??? the writer needs to explain this plot - like What the Actual Frack **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and if that not confusing enough, Hyun Woo didn't look that attached to Ji Seok, let alone Do Jin and yet his reaction with both guys was like he was more invested then he looked - only me wondering what... What... WHAT is going on?!? ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************oh i donno why i'm surprised that this plot is just all over the place - but hearing this got another ep added - is that good or not, only time will tell (after viewing it)..

the start was confusing until u "get" this happens after the 2nd ep - cause Hagui Gento serial killing mentioned here, is connected to Goro the inpatient (ex-cop) that was with Totono and his ex-partner's crime's (in the 3-4 ep, forgot which one) and it was resolved there. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************interesting how everything is tied together. and of course we needed closure to Garo and his sister's missing time before dying, mystery. so left to see where this will go in the last ep. only pity there wasn't more of Totono

i get people hating on Ji Seok, cause we all rooting for Do Jin - the shy introvert that's making baby steps towards the person he is infatuated with - who doesn't love this type of character, he sweet, endearing and u want to root for him to "consummate" his love ahem\(￣︶￣*\)) no pun intended. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but i don't hate Ji Seok - heck i find him entertaining and "all is fair in love and war..." he not blind and as opposed to all the ton's off self-sacrificing character's in a lot of drama's, that just bow-down or move to the side, cause they so insecure they think that anyone is better for the person they mooning over, then themselves- why?!? ******************************************************************************************************************************so yeah Ji Seok staking his clam, he aint shy about it - he not being shady, but he open about his infatuation - heck he announcing it to the world. if i had a problem with anyone it would be with Hyun Woo - he just floating around like he's not a part of anything, he heard Ji Seok's confession loud and clear, he not sure so let's just push that aside and enjoy the perk's?!? no need to think it through and give Ji Seok an answer or rejection?? *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************so if i would hate on anyone, it would be a character like Hyun Woo (not that i hate him, just wish he was less "wishy washy"). cause anyone with eye's would notice Do Jin's shy "fan-girling" over him. but not this dude, he oblivious to the world - not a great personality trait in a main *********************************************************************so much left open - that's a lot to "shove"/solve in 16 min's, wonder what ending we gonna get

been a while since i watched this and cause of the last ep being subbed i noticed it on the main page, was so happy and this ep little by little has done me in - that ending has broken me... plz let him be safe/ok .... ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************this whole ep was such a roller coaster, the sec Hiyama appeared i knew he would be trouble. and kept getting mad at Yukiko for her lack of observation (even though i know it wasn't her fault), not only cause she can't see what's going on. but cause other then being a childhood friend, Hiyama has come as a counselor to help her and her friends find a vocation, and until the end he never made it obvious to her that he is interested in her in anyway other then a friend - so i get her not pushing him away or noticing how it was effecting Kurokawa. ***********************************************************************************but i love the dude so seeing him hurting, got me up in arms lol... plus u don't need eye's to "get" that ur bf might be insecure when ur "first love" suddenly appeared - that's human. ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and if that wasn't enough as cute and funny Sora is, her always fan-girling over every new guy - especially if they can see is grating - when everyone including she-herself knows how Yota is infatuated with her. so was sooo happy when at the end she accepted his gift and then we get that end - this did my heart in - hoping for a miracle in the next ep

didn't get how Godo survived let alone thrived or why only now, he on a "killing" streak - maybe he senses that Kakeru is on the verge of turning? and wants to push him over?? but to what end? *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************btw Sho roaming around all alone, was sure he was next in-line to be turned but guess he safe for now. we almost near the end and i've got more questions like who is Misaki and where he take the sealed souls too? let alone how he or whoever it is that phones Hajime informing him, that Kakeru needs to go seek out/capture a new evil soul and seal it. and where to find them and i guess the last Q, how Mio connected - through her father? what were the old souls Kakeru told her about - the subs being what they r, i donno if something got left out of translation that would have give me the answer's i need...

guess Yoyo Jae was right in the 1st ep - every time Kakeru seals an evil soul he absorbs some of the darkness. so i guess Yumi's sister doesn't have anything to fear. also don't get why every one suddenly turning to and confessing all too Mio - thought this some big secret that everyone involved or not was covering up for decades, suddenly everyone turned blabber mouth. meeh - ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and if Hajime "took care" of his partner, cause he was "turning" how he alive and kicking?? let alone have the ability to turn others?!?
