Majo Saiban is for me one of the biggest disappointments on suspense dramas.
This story is about a murder trial "the witch trial", and how strange things begin to happen to the lay judges just to force their vote. The Witch Trial is about a hostess that married a rich old man and then was accused of killing him in order to receive his inheritance. That's pretty much the highlight of the story.
First of all I know a drama is a fictional story, but it HAS to be believable. Majo Saiban isn't believable at all, it completely fails as a suspense genre.
The story continues with ZERO suspense for me (the only thing that surprised me was the bad guy) all the "twists" were pretty predictable for me and the end was horrible.
One more thing that was unnecessary for me was Tooru's girlfriend that was pretty much out of her mind during all the drama.
To sum up this story pretty much fails on every aspect and I don't understand why after having such great suspense dramas they make THIS!!!
The two things that were excellent: the song by Fukuyama Masaharu "Senshin", and the villain (love him!!!)
Anyway there are plenty of good suspense dramas to watch so just forget about this one and move on.
