I usually don't review dramas until I've seen the whole series, but I can tell from the first two episodes that this is just a mediocre mystery drama. Both actors are too good/popular for this drama and honestly don't fit the roles well. There are plenty of other dramas that are worth your time. Heck, re-watch one if you have to.

This show was one of the funniest, most ridiculous show I have ever seen. If you want something light, something funny, and something still within the detective/crime solving drama genre then you are in for a treat. The gag-acting from these characters is hilarious and the follow up is done really well, too.

For the actors to be able to stay serious while playing out a gag, then follow through without laughing and continue the rest of the filming must have been hard to do; personally, I laughed during every episode. It's nice to see the acting range of some of my favorite actors/actresses, seeing how they can work so seriously during hilarious gag moments just makes me like them even more.

If you're bored or just starting to watch Japanese dramas, then this is a good show for you to watch. However, don't put this show on a pedestal; it's meant to be funny and like a "normal day in school" and it's meant to make laughs, it is definitely not a serious crime/detective drama. The acting in this show is superb! It is definitely amazing to watch how some people work. This drama is a ridiculously funny show, and I absolutely recommend it!
