estar this ep took me a while to finish, reading the comments thought everything regarding the new work and employee's seemed a bit unrealistic. but watching this it was tough, get them and her. but that's reality. in most countries (that i know) the government give's companies, anyone that will hire handicapped people or even minorities, benefits. no one likes to find out they got a job, just cause they one or the other, but that's life and u gotta deal - like u gotta deal with how doubly tough it's gonna be to work in a workplace with a handicap. it's not only getting used to the work, but how the other coworkers treat u, can add to the burden or help. the dude that runs that chip shop has a good heart and great intentions, so glad everything worked out for the better - but it wasn't realistic. ************************************************************************************************************************************but this like most plot's in dramaland (let alone) J-dramaland tend to be all fluffy puppies and rainbows, where everything magically works out, and as i am totally rooting for the mains, as individual's and together - will over look this plot-hole. **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************but hard to overlook Hachiko, who has lost the plot - know Morio in-spite of his tough exterior is all heart and once he likes u (as he doesn't have family) u become family. so he believed Hachiko got the message and they "good", which watching the end - aint the case. also find it so ironic that a girl that know how getting bullied feels, is now targeting someone like Yukiko - cause she jealous **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - Hachiko did kiss Morio, the fact that he didn't kiss Shishio (which talk about hilarious turn of events) it was cause he just wanted to check how much Izumi could see through that plastic bag, he wasn't looking to reenact that moment lol.

Morio is just good for my heart - but have to say the "goody goody" all accepting, all forgive attitude in these J-drama's is a bit annoying. still glad Yukiko got a way to make peace with her older sister, and redefine their roles - but that older sister wasn't justified in slapping her and she for sure - until the end - didn't apologize - why?!? that father (ignored him until now, cause he more there for comedic relief) but he is totaling taking advantage of the fact that he doesn't have to "father" anyone, and leave's everything up to Izumi. so when he has to step up and be a father that puts a stop to Izumi dictatorship, he can't - little wonder she has been ruling with an iron fist in that house but baby steps - *****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Hachiko indeed did the dirty - but this was needed cause Morio has to open his eye to who she really is. he keeps treating her like this sweet little sister, that he needs to protect and care for - when she not! so even though doing that while Yukiko sat there oblivious to what was going on, was totally underhanded. but maybe now he will know that she isn't such a good friend - rather someone he needs to distance himself from. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - Shishio even with that blonde mop is hot but in a suit Aish but so didn't see the older sister ending up with another "Yankee" now that ironic and hilarious

yes they r cute, sweet and fun but i love(!!!) Morio - the dude playing him is just beautiful, he smiles and i....****************************************************************************************************************************************even that scar doesn't take away from his beauty, and if that wasn't enough his personality just blow u away. who is this sweet, good and pure?!? ironic that he is the "Black Panther" more like a cuddly, fluffy puppy... that everyone is walking over - ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************i get Yukiko is insecure cause of her disability - but why rush to get angry at Morio for Hachiko's words? considering Morio has Never treated her as if he feels sorry for her. but i get in the heat of the moment u just lash out without thinking. same with the older sister who is over protective of her younger sibling and considering she has been more mother and parent to her - then sister. i get why she is rushing to get rid of all obstacle's... pretty sure Izumi aint living an easy life - heck her world revolved around Yukiko - which isn't healthy in the least. so this is a learning curve for both - and as Yukiko needs to start not only trusting in others, but in herself by cutting the umbilical cord - and let her sister know she aint a kid anymore in need of hand-holding. plus this will enable her sister to have a life of her own. so from the previews it looks like the next ep is gonna be explosive and cathartic

this was beyond sweet, but it has a totally depressing vibe too... of course reading its adapted from a manga, rushed to read it (haven't finished - but it's hysterical) this was funny and sweet, but really not even close to how funny i found that - i guess here we get more of reality, unlike the manga were it builds up slowly. ****************************************************************************************************************************************both Yukiko and Morio r adorable - my heart goes out and aches for them in a different ways, and considering how Morio is treated by society let alone the law, i'm worried this gonna turn tragic by the end - i hope not. cause they so sweet, i want a fairytale plot for them with minimum bumps, until the "happily ever after" ending - asking for too much?!? lol idk **************************************************************************************************************************************well great 1st ep, now the wait begins

OMO i couldn't stop smiling throughout this ep - ok when i wasn't crying, heartbroken or laughing out loud, i was smiling and it was A lot!!! i'm so thankful to the subber that enabled this ep to be uploaded and subbed after what feels like an eternity - this is such a feel good, heartwarming drama - that i can't get enough! so Thank You *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************the character's here r not only loveable, they touch ur heart and i really (keep repeating myself) but i can't get enough of each and everyone (ok could do without Hiyama - the new complication) but the other's aish, do my heart good - *********************i Love Kurokawa (or is it Sugino Yosuke, he smiles and i light-up, dude is a dream-boat) add to that his endearing personality (character wise) and who can stand his charms?!? not me. so i aint astounded Shishio has fallen for him - but Shishio calling himself "not normal" cause he likes a man, was heartbreaking - as it didn't just indicate how he views himself, but what type of society he has been brought up in (as their outlook has colored his) where if u love ur own sex, u r abnormal. that's just depressing (especially in this day and age). so was very thankful that Izumi didn't turn out to be the usual self-centered female - but a good person with a big heart - large enough, to be there for Shishio as a friend and wish for his happiness.

well this was a mess - 3rd ep in and idk what the writer was thinking, but this was a bad parody about a suspenseful drama and it wasn't funny. by the time Takako went off (again) on her own, defying orders and chasing after Rodrigo Sanchez on a boat - after Niina telling/ordering her to stop and back off - i lost interest. cause this really went from bad to worse (from the start of this ep). and as is the acting here far from good - and yeah not everyone is bad (at acting) but when there's one rotten egg u notice/focus on that "stink" (and sadly there more then one bad actor here). anyway i've lost interest - bummer was looking forward to see Abe Hiroshi in action - oh well

for a sec there was wondering if this connected to The Sweet Blood, even though Jun Ho has nothing in common with his character there - Chi Woo was a total bad-boy, that just had to look at someone to "get" them, here he's a tamer version. but as he's dying i guess he has reason to be somber. ***************************************************************************************************************************************btw considering it's taking him over a decade to die, and his clock still ticking, he more or less human - no?? *********************************************************************************************************************************also Min Hyun is a total sweetheart - and he already infatuated with Jun Ho. the (big) question, what was his older brother gonna say? the fact they the only surviving family of each other, mean what? him being so over protective, mean what? a lot of question's and this just 8 ep's and maybe 8 min's an ep - not a lot of time, to cover all the questions that need to be answered - K-BL's redefining, being a tease

it's so sad, all the bad-guys to date suffer from past trauma's. hard to hate them. but Kunou for sure gonna be one hell of a therapist when he graduates. but not shocking considering he himself has "baggage", something that has made him this observant and accurate in his conclusions. sad and make's that much more of a loveable character.

Kunou is such a sweetheart and so childlike, hard not to love him, so him saying Garo was the only one who didn't find him annoying was so saddening to hear - considering both Furomitsu and Ikemoto might as well have adopted him, how they pop-up at his place for advise. heck even Aoto has a soft spot for him. wonder what he went through as a kid to make him the way he is. have a feeling it's a sad story - ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************also about Garo, i donno but why i get a sherlock holmes moriarty vibe from him - as in he is gonna turn into Kunou's nemesis - even though Kunou not exactly a detective solving crime so i donno how that's gonna go down - let alone why would Garo send Kunou that hand - talk WTF. after that i wouldn't be happy to se him if i was Kunou

this is seriously good - really loving Kunou, dude marches to his own beat and tells it like it is. things people wont do not in the circumstances he's in, and cause of that - it's hilarious, laughing a lot cause of this dude and can't get enough of how his brain works - true genius. ***************************************************************************************************************************************love even more the advise he give's, like with Kashiwa Megumi he pointed out that yes she had a right to do whatever she wanted, as everything was "natural choice". but she shouldn't bring a kid to fix her pain, cause that doesn't work. love that logical take we get here - usually everything is whitewashed into this goody goody POV that is more preachy crap, then realistic. so Love this drama!!! ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************side note - that have to point out watching Through the Darkness where commenter's keep going on about misogyny, this drama or how Furomitsu keeps getting treated by her fellow officer's is what misogyny is. and yet she rising above and working hard to prove herself. this is a strong female

loved this - this was hilarious and well written, let alone executed - but the thing i loved the most, that this wasn't the usual preachy all accepting, all forgiving, condensing clap trap that's in almost every J-drama i've come across. that by that end of the ep everything is forgiven cause the bad-guy's found the light... and victim and perpetrator alike, should be understanding and benevolent - very frustrating to watch. **********************************************************************************************so here Kunou not mincing words, but telling it like it is - confronting Yabu with the truth of his lies was a redeeming moment in my eye's. it made up for all the other b.s i've seen until now - it for sure made this a well worth watch. so i Thank "U" for that - this was perfection. and not even mentioned how this was jam packed with content and it didn't feel over the top - it went from strength to strength and i for sure am on for one of a enjoyable ride

what is Nishino's deal - is there bad-blood between him and Niina? or he just want's his position? cause for now, it just seems like his character is there to oppose Niina, with no rime or reason. weird - also weird that only now Seno's PTSD is causing problem's. when he was a kid - then it was logical he was scared of water. that's why Niina's coming along teaching him how to swim, making him comfortable in water was understandable (endearing), thought that was what that scene was about. but i guess childhood trauma never really goes away - u just find ways to deal. ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************also wondering, as Kuroe came to get approval from Nariai for moving on (marrying Niina) guess she was in a relationship with Nariai's brother ? a lot of the back-story needs clearing - so will know what's what. not that i believe that Niina is a bad-guy or guilty or foul play (hope i aint wrong).

this is interesting and a lot if going on for the 1st ep - so it also feels a bit chaotic, but sorry (idk who Yokohama Ryusei is, or how famous he is) but the dude's over acting is killing me. so taking him seriously at the end - couldn't, just made me roll my eyes - *******************************************************************************************************************************as is i think if u have been hero worshiping someone from childhood cause u thought he saved u - let alone he then took u under his "wing" and was a father too u... just cause of one vague memory, that isn't clear ur jumping to conclusions. normally u would debate with urself - before accusing someone like that - let alone get in their face. the over reaction isn't believable to me - so i hope as this progresses there more answers - the plot is cleared up. let alone Seno tune's down his over acting.

idk why, but i am more frustrated by Yoon's complaining about the Criminal Behavior Analysis team then anyone else - maybe cause of how she has witnessed their work first hand - cause they worked with her. let alone proved themselves useful - maybe also cause of the fact that Song numerous times has shown her respect as a police woman, not only a fellow officer. that i expect more from her, i guess. so seeing her reverting to her antagonistic attitude with Song and Kook is rubbing me the wrong way. *********************************************************************************************************************************************heck i kinda don't get why all the cops keep complaining that they seeing Song investigating - how he getting in their way? he not stopping them. he for sure not taking credit or stepping on their toes - but just cause he doing his job, he a nuisance?!?it's like, cause they aint getting any leads he a convenient "bad" omen - that cause he's around, he's somehow preventing them from achieving their goal - no logic at all just pettiness... same with the Commissioner general, there so many departments working on these cases and yet the only one he mentioning is the Criminal Behavior Analysis - like what?!? *******************************************************************************************************************************************frustrating working in this type of environment. wonder what will be their big break, that will not only bring them acknowledgement but also the respect they deserve as fellow cops

what a demoralizing ep - glad the preview gives some hope, but aish this did my heart in. one scene sadder then the other and the hits kept on coming. ************************************************************************************************************kinda got both "heads" Habu and Yamamori disbanding the team and telling their subordinates, to call it quits. even though neither of them had any intention of stopping or giving in - suicide mission style. but seeing it, was so saddening - especially after everything they went through from the start - so i get this a major set-back. but even i couldn't fathom how either was gonna make enough of a come-back to not only take out Oyama, but the organization he had formed with the help of Fujita and the like... ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************that's why i loved that Saijo not only didn't give up, but went proactive going to that reporter of all people. who knew he would turn out to be a dark-horse. glad at least they were doing something other then just being in despair... finger's crossed the last ep will be them all coming out on top - and not pushing if off, cause there is potential for another season
