Lion no Kakurega (2024) - ep 2

Lion no Kakurega (2024) - ep 2

1. The first thing the 1ML should’ve done was go to the police and report the missing child - even if he suspected the boy might be his nephew.

2. The idea of faking a death and running away could have worked... if they’d actually fled to a faraway place where no one could recognize them. Leaving the child with her brother? That was just a bad call.

3. When you're up against someone powerful, the smart move is to involve someone with equal or greater influence. Instead of hiding from the press, they should’ve worked with them to expose the abusive husband, shift public opinion, and strip him of his power.

4. For most of the drama, the plot revolves around saving Lion. But once that storyline wraps up, the focus suddenly shifts to other things - like the relationship between the brothers.
Sure, it makes sense from a narrative standpoint (deal with the biggest crisis first), but it felt like the sibling relationship and the 1ML’s personal journey were underdeveloped, especially since they became the central theme in the final episode.

I was genuinely surprised when the main plot wrapped up halfway through episode 10. I thought, “Wait, that’s it? What’s left now?”
There were definitely a few side plots that needed to be tied up, but they could’ve been handled in about 10 minutes. That said, I did appreciate the way things settled down at the end - it gave the story a nice cooldown. 😉

It was a decent drama - I'd give it an ok+.
The premise was a bit odd, though.
