story: great story for a mystery crime drama and every episode keeps you guessing who is the killer not your casual detective/crime story for a dorama. and hope season 3 will be shota/shinobu to capture the killer of sachiko , since they tease it on the end of season 2 hope it will continue to season 3. and hoping there is spinoff like background story of kuroshima/akaike clan not just sawa the important part here is the revelation of akaike sachiko (bunch of psychopath), what,why and thats the biggest mystery here.acting: theres only one i can say about nanase's acting for me its ok since her role is to make a Innocent look but i think the last episode is where she could show her acting as a killer. this is the first i watched all the main character so no biased score here here.
defintely im going to watch this again.

Head Spinner Part 2
I was so frustrated by the ending of season 1. Like seriously?This season has been a wild emotional ride because of Shota and his longing for Nana :( He really loves her *sobbing at the corner*
The murder chain probably ended but here we could see the depth of the characters left and unanswered possibilities. Again it set my head spinning because the emergence of suspicions and confusions between the characters. Everyone is a possible suspect! No one should be trusted in this game! The creepy characters continued to twist and mess me up until the end. They were a group of unrealiable informants which made things more frustrating to me.
Overall : It was a well-written psychological thriller.

The plot keeps you on your toes. The murderswap game of apartment residents and the resulting murders, are they really related? Ono Chan becomes more creepier in part 2 . Sao who works at meat processing facility also gives more creepy vibes. Kuroshima's smiling stalker Uchiyama definitely tops the creepers list. Doyan - Is he really helping Tezuka in solving Nana chan's murder or does he have any hidden motive? Tamiya - is he really learning acting or venting his frustrations of feeling guilty? The Nurse and the creepy grandma - are they related to these murders??? The writer has done a great job in making us suspect many people, eventhough towards the end it becomes more or less clear who the culprit is.
Nishino Nanase(Kuroshima Sawa), Nao(Ono Chan), Kakei Miwako(Nurse), Uchiyama( Kuroshima chan's ever smiling high-school mate - could not find his real name), Ryusei(Nikaido, Doyan), Nanase Katsuhisa(Tamiya), Katagari Jin(The doc), Ando(Sao), Creepy grandma etc all did their roles well.. I mentioned only creepy people because to successfully portray creepiness it takes certain effort. Of course our favorite mystery loving couple Shouta( Tanaka Kei) and Nana(Harada Tomoyo) did a great job as well.
I would have wanted improvement on the music, though the music was creepy enough when showing Ono chan, other creepy acts and pre murder attempts deserved a chilling mood setting music to build up the suspense.
The end is just another beginning (nowadays for many dramas, it seems so). Ending seems like, part 2 was forced to end there to create a part 3 for the coming episodes. So we certainly have to wait for part 3. We got a glimpse of part3 in the last episode and it seems interesting enough for me to wait for it. This is the beauty of J Drama mysteries - the plot never disappoints.
