What an opening

Well constructed opening. And the first 3,4 shows are so tightly done that you can hardly breath.

The plot reverse the crime genre, you mostly see the end of murder, later even the scheming, but you don't know why. That is slowly revealed later. And it ties in around episode 4 or 5, can't remember.

There is the pesky reporter, a henchmen of a sort and ties back (as mostly in JP dramas) to the political strata. That tie back is a bit disappointing.

There is a relationship line. Bogs down a bit on episode 7, and last episode has a twist that was not too well organized. Still well acted, well directed to some degree.
