Okura: Meikyu Iri Jiken Sosa (2024)

GOOD CRIME THRILLER, Lovely Duo!

Good Crime Thriller dealing old unsolved / Cold cases.
Around One CASE per EPISODE and each case is interesting.

INITIALLY a bit ODD and WEIRD, whether it be the Plot or the Acting, odd to the extent that some may find it DIFFICULT to CONTINUE WATCHING.

But DON'T DROP IT (can watch it once)

Believe me, as the episodes progress, it gets very INTERESTING, clarifying all the weirdness n suspense created in initial episodes.

The Story of Main "Okura" department along with the stories of the cold cases, is slowly built.

I LOVED the DUO, Senju n Toshiki as partners in investigation :)
Both the actors are handsome, haha.
Their Bromance is cool.
I want more of them :)
Finally in the end, Our Cold lil Prince, Toshiki learnt EMPATHY bcz of our Crazy Cool Kind Knight, Senju san! :)

Initially Senju looks silly but in later eps, u can see the variation in him, who is actually after something big but just acts goofy initially. That suspense is WELL WRITTEN.

The complicated intertwining of all the cases that they solve with a lot of TWISTS where the most unexpected people turn out to be something else, everything is WELL WRITTEN.

But there should be SOME MORE EXPLANATIONS to all the crimes happening, about the organisation, about the actual "OKURA" from a bigger picture.

And so in the end, there's potential for a SEQUEL.
There should be ONE to explain a lot of things that are left out.

*****
In Short:
This Crime Drama deals Cold Cases or Unsolved Murders From The Past.

Two Male Main Leads are Police Officers - Older and Younger partners with light Bromance.

Older is Cool n Social, while younger is Cold n Not Social.

One uses intelligence n the other uses physical strength.
One is serious n the other is silly, haha.

One of the Main Leads is suspected at some point, can't really tell whether he is good or evil in some episodes. And so as the story progresses, impressions on that character, keep changing.

In the end, younger one learns empathy in the company of older.

Older one is suspected to be a murderer of his ex partner in investigation.

There's a Surprise Twist in the end - an unexpected character turns bad.

My RATING is 8.5 / 10.
One Time Watch!

Hope there is a S2 soon, to give a proper closure to this story.
