Counterfeit money which no one is able to see through, is not counterfeit money any longer. The sophisticated counterfeit million yen bills which a homeless man picked up is being recirculated into the public and starts to ravage Japan in the same way a virus would. The fundamental value of money is overturned and in order to build a world not ruled by money, a man has just initiated an outrageous scheme. To find the source of the counterfeit notes, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department summons a genius appraiser, a specialist on counterfeit money. At the same time, Detective Erika Miyazono goes undercover at a jewelry store to investigate the store's connection with money laundering. During her investigation, she becomes aware of a big money investor, young millionaire Nonomiya and tries to approach him. And so she comes to know his true purpose and becomes involved in his plan.

Bonds

This drama is about the money making industry and the cops that try to break them. On the surface it is a cookie cutter police procedural drama. Featured most is the bonds and the length people will go to protect them. It also shines the light on the fact that not ALL Bad guys are ALL bad. Some are, but not all.

I rate this a 7 because well there was still something drab and boring about the plot. Like every I could predict every betrayal and consequence. Were the people cool as they accept their fate? Hell yeah! but in the end most will see it coming.

I must have picked this up either because of Kuroki Meisa or Hayashi Kento. I think both did well in their assigned roles but nothing like "the acting carried it"

If you like crime shows its not a total waste of time.
