Guard Center 24 (2016)

The story for this special is very simple, it is about a security guard who is bad at following instructions from head quarters, who is then sent to the first responder section of the company where he answers distress calls. He also struggles with this task as well by telling the victims "it's going to be ok, it's going to be ok" constantly, which is a taboo in their office. One day he makes a huge mistake on the job and is sent home. On his day off, he encounters a suspicious character lurking around the premises of a building that his brothers visited to see an idol group perform.

Nothing about this story is really super amazing, however, you do sometimes want to hide your head under the cover because you know something bad is going to happen or you just aren't ready for the impact that is coming up next.

Nakajima Kento really sold this one to me, his peppy and cheerful yet internally weak character makes him relatable and easy to get attached to. This to me is by far Kento's best drama role that I've seen him play so far. I highly recommend that everyone give this special a try because it's quite good. I won't say that it will stick with you for a life time, but it's like a thrilling movie that's easy to turn on and watch.

There wasn't a lot of music on here except for the ending theme, which is sung by Kento's group Sexy Zone and that song was quite lovely.

I'd definitely re-watch this because it's short and Kento's character is so lovable that you can't help but want to cheer him on just hoping that he'll succeed.
