Asagi Serina (Fukada Kyoko) is a housewife who loves her husband, Takefumi (Fujiki Naohito), to the extent that she would not mind being his shadow. However, his response to her excessive devotion is to attempt to avoid her "burdensome", "gross" expression of love. With a wife's naivety, she refuses to suspect her husband of infidelity, and initially gets frustrated. One day, with the help of her good friend, Motoko (Ashina Sei), Serina goes out for a meal with the men at the publishing company where Motoko works. The moment a man in the group makes a move on her, it is captured on film by the sleuth, Jinnai Haruki (Kiritani Kenta). Not wanting her husband to see the photograph, Serina starts working at Jinnai's detective agency as an assistant. This ordinary, bumbling housewife grows stronger and improves her self-confidence through the skills she hones. Serina wants to support and help her husband instead of flaunting her new self to him because he is having a hard time. Aware of the problem that happened to her husband because of her over positivity, she sets about trying to solve it. -- Jdrama Weblog -- DramaWiki

  The story is fresh and interesting, enough to say it's a drama I have yet to see anywhere else. The characters are lovable especially the idiotic and naive (and really beautiful) Serina and the comedic Jinnai. It was a drama that kept me wanting to know more about the characters, and it was granted as the drama portrayed even the stories of supporting characters. Every 45-minute episode is worth watching because it is not easy to guess what will happen next, unlike in other dramas. I also believe it doesn't fit the detective/mystery genre, since the story focused on the transformation of Serina to a strong and beautiful woman (as what the introduction in every episode says). This is a heartwarming drama, at times heartbreaking, which will keep you loving it until the last scene. read more

  A houswife whose life revolves around her not-so-interested husband, has the chance to grow and blossom as she becomes a detective.
  
  I adore this drama. Serina, Jinnai and all the other characters are 3 dimensional people with a lot of heart. The mysteries themselves aren't mind blowing but the character growth and interactions are.
  
  It's also amusing to watch. And Fukada Kyoko is fabulous as the obsessive and clingy Serina who likes to don disguises while she does her undercover work.
  
  The highlight of the show was the interactions between Serina and Jinnai, her boss at the detective agency. They were so cute and funny together.
  
  A good drama. Recommended.
