This drama is one of the most ridiculous, unexpectedly thrilling, heartfelt, suspenseful comedy shows I have ever seen. This show is definitely one that fits under the rule of "don't judge a book by its cover"!Even though I had doubts at the beginning of a few certain cast members, as I continued watching this show they were all soon blown away! This cast is remarkable! I've seen some of this shows cast in previous shows, however, in this series it was like they were someone completely different; and I don't mean because acting is their profession or the people they were acting as was different from what I've seen them in, either! This cast had me enthralled by their talents immediately; everyone was deeply into performing their roles so respectfully that I could see their talent and perfection of the skill as the show went on.
The story had some very unique plot twists that I never could have seen coming. A multitude of feelings were emitted from this show as soon as it began; family, respect, jealousy, ego, pride, narcissism, trust, love, friendship, and many more! The energy this show had was something that shined immediately from episode 1!
I loved each character as they showed the difficulties of daily life while being raised in a "famous" household. It was very interesting to see how each family member lived their lives while in their profession and within their household. Each "troublesome" mission they all took on as a family was hilarious, but it was really interesting to see how the family and the people around them grew separately and as a family together.

The drama told a story about the life of Shuzaku Kitazawa and his family. His family had bad personalities, cared about appearance and they never treated him kindly. Each episode is very bizarre but entertaining with every kind of antics that his family brings and Shusaku ended up being the person who had to commit crimes to solve the problem without being appreciated. I find the drama is quite refreshing and unique. I like Yamada's funny expression and he acted very well. Although I find some of the jokes can be quite overwhelming and sometimes too ridiculous.Like why they have to treat him badly to the point that it did not make sense at all? Shusaku too had a slave mentality about his own family. At the near end of the series, there is one surprising fact about Shusaku true identity and why he had always been different. The ending was somewhat unexpected and had a bittersweet ending. Although I wish there are more scenes to show the changed in the new Kitazawa family. But Japanese drama had always preferred a subtle ending.
In conclusion, the drama is entertaining. It's a good drama to watch when you want to see something that makes you laugh.

Other than that, the story was interesting, with some entertaining scenes and nice family dynamics. The small cases that the family took over in each episode were funny and kind of cute. The ending was good as well and just the perfect conclusion for this drama. However, there were moments that the drama got a bit boring. But it always managed to be entertaining in the ending.
So, good performances, kind of odd story and sometimes over the top reactions, but overall, seven out of ten.
