This series is different from past detective stories. "Furuhata Ninzaburo" is a collection of true mystery stories in which the detective, Furuhata Ninzaburo, must solve ingenious crimes and outwit elusive criminals. Although Ninzaburo is a government officer, he does not wear a tie. Although he specializes in murder cases, he does not carry a gun. He does not use violence. More than anything, Ninzaburo conducts himself as a gentleman and uncovers the tricks that outwitting genius criminals play by cool reasoning and smooth talking. In every episode, Ninzaburo will introduce a different criminal in his memory and share his experience tracking and interacting with these criminals. Edit Translation

Beautiful example of the "howcatchem" genre (as opposed to the more usual "whodunit"), it reminded me a lot of the first seasons of "Columbo" - though this was even better! A funny but oh-so-smart character perfectly portrayed by Tamura Masakazu, some nice comic relief provided by Nishimura Masahiko, great plots and dialogues, nice directing, some great guest stars....to cut it short, a must watch. Oh, and let's not forget about that brilliant, jazzy musical score! A perfect 10 all way through! ^____^
