Kuryu Kohei (Kimura
Takuya) has returned to the Josai branch after once again being transferred.
This time the office has gotten new prosecutors and new paralegals except two familiar
faces. As always Kohei does his usual by causing turmoil in the office, be it
his clothes or his way of investigating every case in detail.
This time around his
paralegal and partner is Asagi Chika (Kitagawa Keiko) a fierce yet honest
woman, who does not like to waste time or beat around the bush. She is very
firm and likes to keep prosecutors on track, as she believes that is what she
is supposed to do. That is until she meets Kuryu who helps her understand what
it is like to work at the office and what her real duty is…
Finishing the (current)
last of Kuryu Kohei’s story, the second season is better than all others I have
watched. Not acting wise or not cast wise, but the overall story is better now
if you ask me, and kind of has a better idea of what it’s like being in the
office as a prosecutor - also in court. The thing that struck me both in the
first season and the movie, which is also mentioned in season 2, is that the
prosecutors are seen as bad in Japan: way different here where I live where the
defense lawyers are seen as the bad guys.
Kimura as always does
his job as Kuryu flawlessly and having Keiko on the cast makes it even better.
The rest are quite brilliant as well, which I have no objections to.
All in all a great
second season, and great cast.
