    I just finished the drama and all I can say is; I loved it.

    The story is interesting, it catched my attetion as soon as I read it. The actors are great and the characters whom they play are really interesting. The background music is good and I'm sure I'll re-watch the whole drama within a few days because I liked it so much :)

    I think that the plot is really original, it's way more than your usual good vs. bad battle you see in other supernatural drama's.
    This drama asks the questions everybody copes with while warching the serie; "What is good? What is bad" "Is doing the social right thing, really the best thing to do?" "Who decides what's wrong?" "When doing the

    This drama was seriously a lot more than I expected at first. A really good drama which showed lots of central questions of human beings! What is good? What bad? Peoples weaknesses are tested in here!

    So this drama goes deep! Also the cast was exceptional! Both main actors did a really great performance as well as the female supporting role who plays the detective, Nagisa.



    The music is refreshing and fits the different situations of the drama.



    Overall....WATCH THIS!!! if you want to see a drama with great emotions, deepness, great actors and an very exiting and interesting story!!

    this is NOT a drama of good versus evil. This is much deeper than that. Can something good be used for evilness ? Can bad things have a purpose that feels right ? At first, this drama seems to propose us a battle of black versus white, but in the end, you fall in this much more interesting shade of grey that confuses us...
