p.s. read at your own risks. major spoilers coming up.
     i've been wanting to watch this drama since its release but it was hard to find subs that time. finally, after 3years! i was kinda disappointed with the first ep. i was like, i waited 3years to watch this and this is what you give me? it was really boring. but still i continued watching. i found it intriguing. the crimes/suspects were obvious but it kept me thinking who anonymous was. the story is really straightforward. there's one root to everything that's happening. that's what it was trying to say from the start. i found myself interested and guessing the real identity of anonymous. i suspected Narumi's brother from the start but then i doubted my suspicions when the characters suspected Toyama and Takafuji. XD but my guess was right, yay!
     this drama is supposed to be a comedy but as the story progressed, it became too serious. i salute them for inserting one or two comic scenes and not make the whole situation awkward. and i so envy Nakama Yukie's skin. it's like porcelain. so smooth. 

My Ratings: i give this 8/10 :)
