Synopsis:
      The tale of Tiger & Dragon revolves around Rakugo a traditional form of Japanese comedy that can look back on an impressive 400 year long history. Nagase portrays the Yakuza follower Toraji who goes to a Rakugo performer to collect debts, while Okada plays Ryuji a talented Rakugo player who wants to leave behind the old fashioned world of Rakugo for good. Shortly afterwards these two very different characters happen to cross paths through a girl named Megumi and that's when all the real trouble starts igniting...

     honestly, i fell asleep while watching the SP. i can't understand. i can't comprehend. until i watched the whole series. i was like, oohhh so that was it. i know Nagase's good so i wasn't really looking at him here. this is my 2nd Okada Junichi drama, yay!
     okay. it was a good idea that i watched SP (Security Police) first before watching any other Okada Junichi drama. if ever i watched this first before that, i think i would not appreciate him. now i know why he was ranked 2nd among Johnny's who can act.
     i like this drama cox it's unique. though there's some repeating scenes, it's kinda tolerable. and perfect cast is perfect!

My Ratings: i'll give this 8.5/10 :)
