(SPOILERS --------------- SPOILERS) Just finished watching the whole series and it was okay. Definitely violent (murder, torture, kidnapping) and goes over adult topics (like abortion, still birth, and self harm) which is pretty grim and dark. Two things came up to me relating to the plot. One is that the concept of self defense is different then what I am used to. In the USA the plot wouldn't have made much sense as it's fine and expected to simply tell police that you hurt or even killed someone in self defense of your life. But I guess in Japan it's not quite the same? I guess that's why they didn't go to the police and instead chose to hide it? Or maybe they just did it because it's a manga and a drama. The second one was he didn't give some of the inheritance money to the now single mother and wife. Just found that part weird.
