Naniwa Shounen Tanteidan (2012)

I'm still missing the last ep of this drama, but it's not subbed yet and I thought it's better to write down my thoughts on this drama now...

It's a nice drama to watch. I always looked forward on watching the next episode.

The stories/cases are well established and also make sense. I was first a bit skeptical, because I made the experience that some Japanese detective dramas lack logical cases and solvings. However, here, you can think along and the conclusions always match the evidences.
Alongside those cases in every episode is a love story. Two men are opposing each other in order to win the main's heart, though she isn't interested into men at all. She's more into the cases. However, this gives the drama a funny side and you cannot help, but feel pityful for the two men that try their best for her sake :)

I liked the children's acting a lot. They had quite big roles and did a great job. Also, the two inspectors were very enjoyable as well as the mother of the main actress.
What I didn't like was the acting of the main actress. I have to say that I like Tabe and basically her way of acting, I just think she isn't made for the role of a very self-conscious teacher that gets mad easily. I couldn't really see her getting angry, you could just tell from the volume of her voice.
That's the only thing I'd mark as negative in this enjoyable drama.

So, if you're looking for a detective drama, involving a lot of kids, a teacher that is very forward, a funny team of an old and a young inspector, a very caring mom and some other nice and lovable characters, this one should be the right for you ;)

..POMPOM CAKE..

..this is a story of a temporary so-called teacher, where you may think if she is really a teacher - the she talk, a short-tempered one, who is on fire to fight and the way she dress is so eye-catching..
.
..a story of a teacher who involves in cases to solve..
.
..what makes this series a unique one is that, for me, my first time to watch a detective genre where some kids are involve..
.
..the story also includes a tandem of inspector with a funny sides - but these two differs from other series I have watched - in spite of their characters, they also the one who solve the cases and sometimes the teacher did it..
.
..since from the start, where there are some kids, I didn't expect more action scene (except on the last episode though very light), the phasing of investigation and finding evidences is kinda long but easy to get..
.
..also, good to see Minami Hamabe on her young age..
.
..very light to watch and fun too..
