Never have I even imagined a drama with a main character who keeps being the first witness to peoples demise...
It did get a bit ridiculous but in a good and funny way. Like the way he stalled for time or the way he always got blamed. Truly cringe-worthy.
The detective part of the series was rather cliche but still very entertaining and in all honestly you can't really go wrong with a Japanese detective story line.
The lead not being a cop or a detective or something of the short but just a model trying not to get locked up, was a nice change.
I did figure out the ending plot quit quickly but then again I don't thing they tried to make it much of a mystery anyway. The real mystery of this series were the individual cases in every episode. The way the crimes were committed and more importantly why.
I also enjoyed the side characters colorful personalities and the actors confidence while playing them. I never felt like their acting was awkward.
Also Shimon Toma's (Furukawa Yuki's) unusual hair totally made it hard for me not to laugh, though he did pull it off very well :) And watching Maneki Kei (Tamamori Yuta) kept reminding me about his earlier "tantei" drama; Seishun tantei haruya XD
Forgetting all the typical Japanese drama characters and twists this had a fresh feeling to it.
Overall it was a very light and easy watch.
I recommend you watch this sometime.
Really good for those boring days you want to watch something but just don't want to concentrate too hard.

It took me 2 days to complete.
It would have taken a day normally but I found this at night and didn't want to pull another all-nighter, so, I did the responsible thing and slept!
Just warning all those other marathon watchers! ;)
