Starring Gen Hoshino as Kazuma Shima as a straight arrow detective who, paired with Kohei Jimba (Jun Hashimoto) make an able team. But the word from above (Namase Katsuhisa) dictates new partnerships, and so Jimba is paired with new guy Yohito Kokonoe (Kenshi Okada) and Shima is paired with a man of unscrupulous reputation named Ai Ibuki (Go Ayano, last seen by me as the “monster” in Frankenstein’s Love)
Hmmm, The Straight Edge Cop gets teamed up with the Wild, Loose Cannon Cop but despite their differences, they end up making a great team? I JUST saw this exact premise with the Kento Nakajima/Sho Hirano drama “Miman Keisatsu”, and those were far more likeable people than these guys...
Kimiko Aso rules the show, though- as Kikyo Yuzuru, she is the absolute coolest as the perennial “Amanda Waller” to these gangly detectives, the one “tuff chick” that even THEY won’t go up against!
Will watch a few more…
