I think I've told you before but Liar game was kind of a disappointment for me, so I dont know why Majo saiban would WANT to be liar game when liar game wasnt exactly masterpiece theatre but there you are lol. That being said, I love law dramas so if this is decent then I might try it out. However LOL at the casual tone. Dude that's my problem with jdramas, they are totally w/e about realistically depicting the stuff they center their shows around. whether it's a court of law, neuroscience, forensics or any number of other things and it's like I'm thinking to myself as unrealistic as dramas can be in the US I cant imagine any show over here getting away with that amount of BRAZEN unrealism. It's sad cause jdramas have so many good ideas that just fall apart at the execution stage. Although there are exceptions of course. I was really impressed with how well done the science in tantei galileo was for example. Or how well thought out and effective the teaching methods in Dragon Zakura was. So yeah I try to keep my eyes peeled for those dramas that really enrich my mind and show me this whole new world, rather than insult my intelligence. and this comment is all over the place -_- but basically I feel your pain. My friend has a fondness for majo saiban cause they used several "reservoir dogs" references in the show.
I'm so sorry this is so late! I swear I had a good reason ;_;
