There were moments when I really wasn’t sure if I was watching “just” a comedy or downright a parody. On the one hand, there were actual serious cases that the team had to solve, on the other hand, there was a slapstick comedy hiding behind every bush. It was an odd combination.

But I really loved the family angle, both between Junior and Gentle and among the team. I loved the message that once you joined the team, you became family and the others would do anything to help you. And I also adored that the whole team came to really love Junior and they took to him as their son/little brother. I also loved the up-n-down romance with Maeda, it was hilarious.

I would definitely recommend this drama for the father/son relationship between Gentle and Junior. The way their backstory was slowly peeled away, that it was revealed just how much they loved each other despite all the years of misunderstanding... Right up my alley, to be honest.

(Also, Takeru Satoh is really, really, really pretty here!)
