Righteous warriors

First and foremost: what is a dead animal doing on Suda Masuki's head? It is so distracting!!!!

This "case of the week" series has an original premise and colourful characters telling a story of a company who deletes sensitive content from their client's devices upon their demise. Bur sometimes these deletes are not as simple as they seem.

The series features Kai, a wheelchair bound CEO computer wiz suffering from an unknown illness and the aforementioned carrier of a dead furry animal Yutaro helping Kai in his investigations to right the wrongs. They are a kind of righteous warriors with Kai slowly reconsidering his cold and rigid rules in contact with "happy go lucky" Yutaro.

The series has 8 episodes dealing with some sensitive issues such as suicide, corruption and bullying (don't asian producers just love making dramas about bullying! It must really be a huge problem in their societies? Though it is probably the case everywhere where teens and social medias are in play!). Through these cases we get to know slightly, ever so slightly, until the last episode, the main character's background stories. As I was watching it I had lost hope that we'd find out more about our warriors. The last episode explained a lot eventually.

I really have a bone to pick with the writer about Yutaro: everything about him is just so over the top. Starting with the dead furry animal on his head, clothes found in the bin, posture worthy of Hunchback of Notre Dame. Was it really necessary to make him such an ugly sight to see. And even though he was kind, smart and really perceptive, I was still really surprised anyone wanted to talk to him when he approached them with his unkempt looks. And I am a Suda Masaki fan but here I prefered the actor playing Kai. While Suda Masaki was bouncing off walls as Yutaro, Yamada Takayuki as Kai was the essence of calm and intelligence, who, in contact with Yutaro, starts showing cracks in his armour.

My pet peeve is hair and all three main characters had awful hairstyles and wigs?!?!? Why? Especially Yutaro with his furry pet on his head!

On the other hand the music was unusual. The main theme that kept playing reminded me of those US shows from the 70/80s: heavy on guitars ant every time it played I expected to see those colourfully dressed US shows' characters strutting around (i.e. Miami Vice, Shaft etc.). That is another issue I have with j dramas: the music is very often used wrongly. That bothered me very much in Mystery to Yunakare but it was more bearable here.

Anyway, I liked this drama a lot though still one question remains: what was that dead furry animal doing on Yutaro's head?
