i dunno where to start and where to end with this and the whole problematic thing about it. i am really disappointed in fuji tv because a) they shitted on sakuragi izumi as a previous protagonist , aya did her best when it came to her acting and the feelings izumi had, i could see them and understand them but they should have treated this role with much more respect, most likely though i feel like things might continue in a sequel or in a movie and i hope this time it will be aya in the lead. b) i understand very well though why aya didn't want to be the protagonist for this getsuku, it really seems like the japanese really dun care much anymore for getsuku dramas because fuj tv keeps messing up and viewers got tired. so her choice to stay as a special guest was best imo, had this drama been in it's usual time slot with sakuragi being the main things would have been different and probably ppl would have watched. c) generally the cases weren't that interesting and the only real strong point of this drama was the mystery behind what sakuragi was investigating, choosing not to even touch it in the whole season but only in the last episode was a big mistake. they didn't handle this well and they lost points! d) although i like sawamura i feel like he overdid it kind of still though i feel he did what he could. like everyone else. from honda i can only say she was good at the action scenes but the acting power was at a meh level like always. no offence lol. e) i feel like the 7 year gap was too much so we still , as viewers dunno how sakuragi changed so much. sure it is expected but i feel like there should have been more for us to see. i didn't have many expectations from the drama in the first place and i am bothered how they used the zettai reido brand in order to attract viewers for this detective drama . f) lastly it is obvious why they would mess up. they only kept one of the screenwriters from the 2nd season and tbh hamada hideya isn't close to sakai masaki's skill when it comes to detective dramas. g) one thing is certain, this wasn't zettai reido
indeed but u.u they were marketing this drama as their chance to get high ratings blah blah n they shit on it u.u and sawamura alone obviously didn't do much u.u , though dun get me wrong! i luv that dork! a least we ll have izumi in the last ep n everything will be explained n shown lol~ i know the jap fans were like dissatisfied that they brought her in only now u.u generally fujitv failed hard xD
listen here. this thing is being marketed as zettai reido 3 , not as a spin off. it is just meh. they even put aya on the poster. why? now as for sakuragi's death. i think they tried to make some huge mystery thinking people will watch it. but this drama barely went past 11.7% and that episode was special cause it was honda tsubasa wearing mini skirt, showing her legs and being doS so her fans got excited. everything else about this drama barely keeps i over 10% , had they kept zettai reido 3 in it's original time slot , tuesday and brought aya back it would prob get a much higher rating u_u
like after the drama with yamapi ended she got together with him. after dear sister ended she was with iwata. the only men she wasn't with was oguri shun and tanihara since they are married already. but with inagaki goro , they were in bull doctor together! so like i did hear some underground rumor that goro at the time cheat on kano miho XD lolol ~~~
i m really glad that i ve watched a bunch of jdramas and anime with subs long ago because for the past 5 years now that japanese drama subbing is dying, i no longer need subs to watch medical or even law dramas. it seems that the hundred hours i invested in drama watching helped me learn a new language. i would also sub jdramas but i dun have time ;w;
I agree that the article is K-biased, but overall I like the message of it. "Pure romance" in the Korean style…

this is why i prefer dramas with real women on the lead. i ve watched a lot of dramas like that, especially in the japanese scene. the korean drama scene lacks tbh
second episode fell to 9.6% , they r killing it tbh. u can watch but it's just not zettai reido anymore. they shitted all over it . whatever good potential they had, is gone --- but maybe things will change .... i hope otherwise they will set new low ratings record for getsuku time slot
okay so i have watched the first episode and i take it back. this drama won't have high ratings as of yet. it seems like it isn't even zettai reido anymore. i dun even know if i can even call it spin off material at this point. i love aya but i feel like the writers really ruined the main point of this drama and in the japanese sites people are all saying that without sakuragi izumi being the main role it's not zettai reido anymore. although i think sawamura ikki is a good actor , in this role i can't say that he is shining just yet. the first case was pretty boring and what seemed to be an interesting premise regarding izumi's disappearance and how she is chasing some big case alone was the only thing that really made me want to watch. since i dun need subs to watch dramas i watched it as soon as it was up. first episode rating 10.6% ~
b) i understand very well though why aya didn't want to be the protagonist for this getsuku, it really seems like the japanese really dun care much anymore for getsuku dramas because fuj tv keeps messing up and viewers got tired. so her choice to stay as a special guest was best imo, had this drama been in it's usual time slot with sakuragi being the main things would have been different and probably ppl would have watched.
c) generally the cases weren't that interesting and the only real strong point of this drama was the mystery behind what sakuragi was investigating, choosing not to even touch it in the whole season but only in the last episode was a big mistake. they didn't handle this well and they lost points!
d) although i like sawamura i feel like he overdid it kind of still though i feel he did what he could. like everyone else. from honda i can only say she was good at the action scenes but the acting power was at a meh level like always. no offence lol.
e) i feel like the 7 year gap was too much so we still , as viewers dunno how sakuragi changed so much. sure it is expected but i feel like there should have been more for us to see. i didn't have many expectations from the drama in the first place and i am bothered how they used the zettai reido brand in order to attract viewers for this detective drama .
f) lastly it is obvious why they would mess up. they only kept one of the screenwriters from the 2nd season and tbh hamada hideya isn't close to sakai masaki's skill when it comes to detective dramas.
g) one thing is certain, this wasn't zettai reido
