Still interesting

I like that in this episode it seems like Shioriko's family has its own skeletons in the closet just like Daisuke's family does. Even if I didn't like the episode, which was definitely not the case, that short part in the episode would have been enough to keep my interest.

Still pretty good

I am officially invested in this drama; it’s true that both the directing and the theme are pretty awesome but there’s some sort of premise that I like the way it’s executed in here. I don’t think this episode’s book is more interesting than the first episode’s though but the way they made a simple rejection sound very political was pretty well-done.

I also like the characters and the acting; I am not actually a big fan of Gouriki Ayame’s acting skills but the directing and her screenplay are making her look better than I saw her before. Akira is pretty good himself.

Touching on a different scale

Even if this episode was 'slightly' predictable, i think that what's important isn't the real outcome of the story. It's more like showing what could be possible with one book. (Maybe i'm reading too much into this but well...)

I think thta the driving force for this drama has to be Daisuke-kun. Because he gives it different locations, and a bit power (Sometimes he seems like his other role: "GTO" :D - but not so much as to think that it's bad acting - i think his acting ability is enormous \(^_^)/)

Happy Birthday...

It's a beautiful episode about love and dreams. It is not always someone appreciates that we try and make us pain. However, the books are for us a kind of consolation. I'm starting to like the detectives from the library. Shinokawa Shioriko is very mysterious and amazing. I'm lovin it ;]
