4-go Keibi (2017)

Insufficient Excellence!

This show is an underrated gem! The story alone is superb, but when you add in such a fantastic cast it makes this story even excellent!

The curious bit that this show leaves behind is the past of all their characters; though it does fit with the storyline. I'm left wondering why this show only had seven episodes, it would have been nice to see more of the partnership between Kubota Masataka and Kitamura Kazuki as they went through the ups and downs of life along with the work of being a bodyguard, which in itself is an interesting story.

While there are only seven episodes, it does not mean the story is lacking content or moving too fast. Quite the opposite! This show packs a punch in to a little bit of time by telling an epic adventure story! I appreciate the few flashback scenes and the importance the script put on "moving forward"; it was nice to see characters that are looking for the "happy" sides of life while using the upsets of their past, instead of always brooding and dwelling over things.

I think this show can make a comeback, maybe with the same cast or maybe with a different cast; the "side characters" at Asahina-san's side were extremely interesting and I would have liked to of seen more of their interactions. This story really is unique and relatable in many ways. Please give this show a try!
