Background sound Drama
How to express my feelings, when this drama annihilated all feelings in me. It's one of the laziest drama I've seen, seemingly, the plot was the casting and everything around it, tedious blank fillers.Don't be fooled by the desire to know what exactly happened 20 years ago -
Picture a story, where nothing makes sense if you use a tad of logic, yet the characters are supposed to be smart powerful etc... I have no resistance for this type of self-indulgent story that expects the viewer to mentally shut down and go with the flow no matter how unreasonable implausible or far-fetched the plot is.
It's the type of drama that goes -- you thought thy were the culprit well no THEY ARE -- and so on and so on until it all becomes totally predictable. It's a shame because the conclusion of the story shows potential, the motives for such a horrific thing could have been a solid part of the storyline and well exploited had the characters been fleshed out but no, there is no depth no substance, each episode is, finding one more clue like in a board game.
Oguru shin's voice was a life saver throughout the episodes, his glassed helped to some degree but can't fight against the tsunami of nonsense that drama relied on to justify its plot.
In conclusion, if I hear omuraisu one more time just, one more time, I will scream.

Unfortunately,despite the cast and the cool ending I read about (I enjoy dark/sad endings) I couldn't finish this.First of all,Ikuta's acting kind of spoiled the begining for me,since he does tend to overdo it whenever there's comedy envolved.As a result I his character was either acting like a clown or like a depressed murderer which I found strange and confusing in this particular story.Second and most important,the story was too boring with endless melo flashbacks of the same scene that I just felt like skipping all the time.Oguri on the other hand was a perfectly convicing member of the yakuza,so much so that I still have a hard time seeing him in other roles (it is more about the general look though and not just the acting).The shooting style was also the more natural type you'd expect from a jdrama,which is very refreshing coming from korean dramas but it wasn't enough to keep me on board.
