Satsui No Michinori 終わり

 
Though I felt that the last episode seemed a bit rushed, if I thought of the 7 episodes of the Bakarhythm/Iura Arata crime comedy “Satsui No Michinori” as a long movie rather than a drama, it worked out pretty good!
Despite its abrupt (in my opinion) conclusion, I really loved the journey of these two guys set out for revenge and murder who meet two cool and savvy girls who happily join in on the ride, and I even liked the way they tied things up in the end with a nice little bow!
Of course a big part of my enjoyment of this drama came from the saucy Mayu Hotta (as well as Yui Sakuma, whom I only JUST realized was Yuka in Jikuu Tantei Oyu!), the scenes with the boys interacting with them really made the show!
PS: Even as I was thinking how the drama would work better as a movie, they announced post credits that a feature movie is INDEED in the works, the be released February of next Year. I remember they did this with Ito Kun A to E, will definitely have to check out the Satsui No Michinori treatment!!!
