A Different Take on the School Violence Trope
Along the lines of Weak Hero Class and Study Group, this drama is all about violence, bullying, and corruption in the school system. The "different take" comes from the government establishing the Educational Rights Protection Bureau to protect students, rather than students having to fight their own battles without any support from adults. At first the Bureau consists of one government official and the only inspector he's hired, a former military-trained, special units badass who can easily take down a group with one hand tied behind his back. As the story progresses, we find out why these two have teamed up and the catalyst to the formation of the Bureau. As they work to remove perpetrators of violence in schools, they hire two more Inspectors, each with their own unique skills, talents, along with assorted personality quirks. This motley crew goes into schools that have been reported as having issues to clear the environment so students and teachers can exist without fear.
Most of the episodes have new storylines in new schools. However, toward the end of the series , we begin to see the connections between some of the storylines. It is nicely wrapped up in a full circle ending that also hints to a possible second season.
Although I have watched both Weak Hero Class series and Study Group, I'm really not a fan of dramas with so much fighting. This was a tad different in that the fighting and blood was kept to a minimum. The Inspectors battled much of the corruption by going undercover, and hacking into phones and computers in order to go after the perpetrators. I enjoyed this much more that with other series I've seen. The acting was good, the separate storylines were good and kept me tuning in for all 10 episodes. All in all it was an entertaining series worth watching.
