this drama is SO CUTE and really funny. and as expected of Kamiki Ryunosuke acting, it's superb. everyone's okay too. although i know it's a drama and what they're portraying is somehow impossible to happen in real life, i thought they should have made it a little realistic if they put in a rebellious child. ah but everyone's so obedient and understanding. even the ending is somehow pointless. but yea, it's an enjoyable drama. and still worth watching.
My Ratings: i'll give this 8.5/10 :)

Synopsis:
Originally broadcast in autumn of 2010 as a special drama, "Strawberry Night" returns to Fuji on Tuesday nights. Based on the best selling mystery novel by Honda Tetsuya which sold over 1.5 million copies. Himekawa Reiko is a police officer working for squad 1 of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. As the only female squad leader in charge of inspecting a crime scene, Reiko uncovers the mystery behind a merciless murder, a man who was found dead covered in a plastic sheet in the bushes near a pond. Reiko realizes that the crime is not an independent incident, but one that had just begun. The code "Strawberry Night" eventually surfaces from the investigations, a word that eventually leads to another police officer, an elite detective.
The drama is not only full of suspense, but breathtakingly tells a story of each character's concerns and sorrow, the troubles and tasks they must face. It takes a closer look at Reiko's mental state, the relationship between her and those surrounding her, a detective's faith, pride and sincerity towards one's profession...All in all, it's a profound human / profession drama that will touch the hearts of many.

p.s. read at your own risks. major spoilers coming up.
anticipated watching this cox of the cast and good feedback. i'm not saying i was disappointed but it's lacking of something, i don't know what. suspense, maybe? i was thinking, when i was halfway watching the drama, what's the point of continuing from the SP? (and using the SP title when it didn't have anything to do with the story at all, i mean Strawberry Night is the name of the case they closed in the SP, right?) and then i realized, it's all about Reiko. and Strawberry Night technically means the night when she was raped. i thought Koide Keisuke's character will somehow become a major character. ah, but it was always Reiko and her intuitions and everyone else. XD
but i like their last case. it was soooooo sad. TT______TT and i'm still waiting for Himekawa x Kikuta to happen! when will Reiko be ready? at the end of the series, she progressed by giving her Mom a hug. they said there'll be a movie, i was hoping for season 2, too. i need more Maru in a detective suit in my life! seriously, i thought he'll be the comic relief in this drama, but i ended up laughing at Namase Katsuhisa more. just looking at his face makes me laugh.

- Denden as Ichiyanagi kenzo
Synopsis:
The Public Safety Bureau has set up the Unidentified Crimes Unit a.k.a Mishou in order to investigate special cases which are too much for the First Investigative Division to handle. Mishou has the odd Toma Saya, a genius with an IQ of 201, and Sebumi Takeru, a veteran of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police’s Special Operations Unit. Against criminals with special powers (SPEC) that ordinary people do not have such as stopping time, reading a person’s mind, foretelling the future, Toma and Sebumi set traps by turning SPEC on them and waging dramatic battles. A relationship of trust emerges between the two of them through their repeated deadly struggles with these SPEC holders, and they succeed in defeating their biggest enemy, but … … A year later, when Sebumi, who has taken leave of absence from the Metropolitan Police for eye treatment, returns to Mishou, Ichiyanagi Kenzo and Kikkawa Shu are there. Ichiyanagi has been assigned to be the new head of Mishou in place of the demoted Nonomura Kotaro while Kikkawa was transferred from the Organisational Crime Department. Several days later, a call is placed to Mishou about a bizzare murder case. It was a murder rampage with a machine gun on the streets in broad daylight. The only survivor is a high school girl. Furthermore, that high school girl, Kuon Nozomi, says the criminal who wore black from head to toe, “escaped through teleportation”. Satori’s image is found among the photos of the people involved. Analysing that a fight between SPEC holders had broken out during the day, Toma quickly heads to the police hospital where Nozomi has been admitted. She continues to hide her true intensions deep in her mind. Sebumi who knows about this mind maze, tries to get the real Toma back...
Sukaretto says:
awesome drama is awesome! and Kitamura Kazuki being part of the cast made this drama more awesome! ah but i like the series more than this SP. this kinda reminds me of Heroes. i mean, the Queen's ability of getting other Spec uses' DNA to get their powers, it sounded too similar to Sylar's power (in his case, he's got to eat a part of the brain, eww). which reminds me of that news about Masi Oka wanting this to have a Hollywood remake. NO PLEASE, NO. i can picture it. it'll be like a Heroes copycat.
back to the SP. i think it's lacking something. humor? weirdness? i don't know. it seems like those 2 things were forced. it doesn't look natural. i'm still looking forward to the movie.

i thought i'll cram up everything i have to say to this series. i don't know why they can't make a detective drama wherein the detectives are actually badass and smart and not always getting manipulated by the criminal or their emotions. i also don't know why this drama makes me think of Criminal Minds.
anyways. unlike any drama with a lot of seasons and SPs, you can see in here the changes and progress of the characters. i felt Ueto Aya's character mature. i still don't like the getting caught up with their emotions thingy going on in the entire drama. but i like the fact that they didn't put much of the characters' personal lives in.
i still can't get why they had to change the "theme". from handling cold cases to becoming undercover detectives. what happened to the special investigations team that handles cold cases? did they give that to another team? i mean, they didn't even tell the viewers what happened to it. honestly, i like them tackling cold cases more. but them as undercover detectives is more thrilling. so i really can't choose which one is better.
and i'm expecting season 3. i'd like to see how Ueto Aya's character progress more. oh well, yea, i just want to see Yokoyama You getting bossed at by Ueto Aya. hahaha XD but yea, i want season 3.
My Ratings: i'll give all of these 7.5 :)

i wasn't expecting this to be good when i downloaded it. honestly, i thought of watching this because of Odagiri Joe and Kuriyama Chiaki. ah, but just 2 eps and i was hooked. i can't say that it's altogether comedy drama, but the humor was of enough level, it's not much and it's not lacking. the reason why i liked it. and yes, they managed to stretch the story up to 8 eps and it was kinda dragging sometimes. just when i thought i'm getting it, the ending happened. and i was like "EEEHHHHHH??!!" i didn't get it all! hahaha and so i had to resort to reading others' deductions and thoughts about this drama for me to be enlightened. and true enough, after reading, i thought of how stupid i was. i was just looking at the surface and never really thought of reading in between.
IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS DRAMA YET THEN IT'S BETTER TO STOP READING HERE. i think you won't be able to enjoy watching if you already know what's happening.

Hi wa Mata Noboru
Japanese Drama
Japanese Drama
Episodes: 9
Genre: Drama
Cast:
- Sato Koichi as Tono Kazuyuki
- Miura Haruma as Miyata Eiji
- Ikematsu Sosuke as Yuhara Shuta
- Narimiya Hiroki as Yagisawa Takahiko
- Namioka Kazuki as Shiraishi Daichi

- YOU as Tachibana Kotomi
- Takahashi Tsutomu as Matsuoka Hirotoshi
- Hashizume Isao as Hiriuchi Seijiro
- Saito Yuki as Tono Natsumi
- Rokkaku Seiji as Sugizaki Takao
Detective Tono Kazuyuki (Sato Koichi) of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police's First Investigative Division resigns to take responsibility. However, he gets an appointment letter which he is unprepared for...to become an instructor at the police academy!
It is a useless role in the classroom involving theories about the many violent criminals. Tono, who has thus far used seemingly unorthodox measures to arrest criminals in investigations he obssessed over, assesses better than anyone else that he is least suited to be an instructor … … Awaiting him at the police academy he goes to as a new instructor are the naive young people of today who are attracted by the stability of being a civil servant and the cool uniform, particularly the trainee, Miyata Eiji (Miura Haruma), who handles everything tactfully. He is smart, good at sports and popular with both genders, but he has neither encountered hardships nor setbacks, and has nimbly made his way through an innocuous life. In fact, Miyata's way of life is far from the qualities of a police officer who protects the lives and possessions of citizens.

p.s. major spoilers ahead. read at your own risks.
this was the drama continuation of the drama SP Saigo no Bansan. Tono looked younger with his hair cut short. judging by the title, i thought EXILE song that was used as theme for this drama was "Rising Sun" but it was a ballad, i don't know the title.
can you think of any other troublesome trainee police class? it seems like all the trouble, i mean ALL, was from Tono's class, how was that possible? and it's almost always Miyata Eiji's fault. i thought from the start that Seo's a girl. i was startled when i saw him naked bathing with all his classmates and his chest flat. lols. really, his voice's so tiny, it's irritating. and i love Maya Miki's character, it's like a girl experiencing love for the first time at her age. hahaha. but they didn't say anything about what happened to her and Tono in the end.
i really feel bad for Tono. he's stupid a fuck. but who am i to say that? i haven't been in his situation. maybe he just really love Natsumi THAT MUCH he kept on waiting for her even though he knew that she's not coming back to him anymore.
My Ratings: i'll give this 7/10 :)
