Juuyou Sankounin Tantei (2017)

It is RIDICULOUSNESS done Right! It's ridiculous to the point that it's SO good but it's being overlooked/underrated. Very addictive. A Marathon material. Will Wish For More after. I love how unrealistic all the characters are. Each of them are not like every day humans. The personalities and characteristics are there, but they don't behave like reasonable logical people in real life. They're manga-like characters. I Love them to bits. Despite not being realistic they're fantastic and full of fantasy. I love Karin and Kei. The cute model Shimon is awesome. He's cute. Too kawaii. Makes me wanna stomp on his face to stop the cuteness. That's quite a sadistic urge that I have for him. I love their other friend, wanna be dectective, mystery lover, Itsuki. He's too funny. He's just too Funny! Love his facial expressions. I hope he gets with his blind date. She's cute. Him being so delusional is funny. I'm attracted to him the most out of the 3 models coz of his personality. The other guy that i'm attracted to is the metro police boss. There were like 3 high ranking bosses but i'm talking about Toyohara Kosuke's character. LOL I can't believe i'm writing this but he's like over 50 yrs old and I think he's hot. He's the one that is against Kei thru out, trying to arrest Kei in all episodes LOL. He should be hated but I love him. I didn't like him from the start but he grows on me. All of a sudden in EP 6 I kept thinking why he has such an attractive face! Older male police. So basic, but I never felt this way before for policemen characters like his. He's like #2 attractive to me, and #1 is Koyama Keiichiro's character (the mystery loving model, Itsuki). #3 is Takito Kenichi's character (the modeling agency's boss). He has a big head but cute. He's so excessively energetic. It's strange to say i'm attracted to him but I am. I luv his persona with his girl assistant/manager. He's just so fun. Such a fun character! I'm attracted to that quality. He has so many worthy making into GIFs moments.

Each time Kei or the 2 models start to cat walk, I can't ! I just Can't! it's the most ridiculously funniest thing! Solving crimes while being a model. The cat walking bit is slab-sticky but I'm sold! I bought it all. I love it. It's funny to me. Other people might find it slab-sticky. Each time it reminds me of the transformation in a Sailor Moon Episode or some Anime Motif. He says the same lines over and over in each episode like shouting "i'm not the culprit!". He'd cat walk and pose in the middle of everything. Strange but Funny. Some eps are easy to guess who the culprit is, but some eps are good/hard enough. So light hearted. A No stress watch. Not dramatic. The only bad thing about this is it is not popular enough to get picked and we need more episodes! Can't find it on stream sites but have to download subs.

Never have I even imagined a drama with a main character who keeps being the first witness to peoples demise...
It did get a bit ridiculous but in a good and funny way. Like the way he stalled for time or the way he always got blamed. Truly cringe-worthy.
The detective part of the series was rather cliche but still very entertaining and in all honestly you can't really go wrong with a Japanese detective story line.
The lead not being a cop or a detective or something of the short but just a model trying not to get locked up, was a nice change.
I did figure out the ending plot quit quickly but then again I don't thing they tried to make it much of a mystery anyway. The real mystery of this series were the individual cases in every episode. The way the crimes were committed and more importantly why.
I also enjoyed the side characters colorful personalities and the actors confidence while playing them. I never felt like their acting was awkward.
Also Shimon Toma's (Furukawa Yuki's) unusual hair totally made it hard for me not to laugh, though he did pull it off very well :) And watching Maneki Kei (Tamamori Yuta) kept reminding me about his earlier "tantei" drama; Seishun tantei haruya XD
Forgetting all the typical Japanese drama characters and twists this had a fresh feeling to it.
Overall it was a very light and easy watch.
I recommend you watch this sometime.
Really good for those boring days you want to watch something but just don't want to concentrate too hard.

It took me 2 days to complete.
It would have taken a day normally but I found this at night and didn't want to pull another all-nighter, so, I did the responsible thing and slept!
Just warning all those other marathon watchers! ;)
