Toubousha is the kind of dramas that has it all to be 'the drama of the year': first-class leads (abe hiroshi, eiguchi yosuke), deep plot, great directing, etc. So it is deplorable to see it end up as a so-so drama after all.
As usual, hiroshi abe's performance is top notch and shows again his talent and versatility as the anti-hero cop Mineshima Ryuji. A little less engaging performance from eiguchi yosuke mainly due to the average scripting of the character he's playing (Nagai Tetsuo). And finally you have the (completely useless imho) uber-super-motivated Kanagawa police detective played by mizuno miki that was running through almost all of her scenes :)
AND you gotta wonder how such a gentle peaceful police forces maintains security in the country with this much tolerance towards suspects/criminals ;)
The plot is very interesting indeed, there are many characters involved and unexpected twists are very frequent (maybe too frequent) and will keep you wondering who's the bad guy until the end (and I mean the very end).
Long story shot, it's a drama that's not the best out there but not a complete waste of time either... |

the familiarity of having a fugitive accused of killing his wife while on the run is forgiveable... it's one of those 'things' that one doesn't mind watching over and over again... solid acting from the three leads. abe hiroshi is intriguing as the rogue cop, eguchi yosuke convincing as the hero although i thought miki mizuno looked slightly out-of-place. but considering the fact that her role is supposed to be that of a young inexperienced cop, i guess it's fine. recommended.
the show loses points because of the exaggerated and sometimes predictable plot. |

Oct 2004: This drama remines me alot of suna no ustuwa, in a different way, full with suspense, mystery, and there's almost a twist in every episode, u will never know whos the real killer is until the end. One thing, mizuki mizuno suddnely become soooo thin until i couldnt recognize her the first time i saw her is this drama, i like her chubby look more......looks more healthy. You will not dissapointed by the performances of the cast. |

Japanese thriller/suspense dramas never fail to surprise me. Yet another crime thriller that left me sitting on the edge of the seat. My only disappointment was the complicated ending. Somehow, it's not convincing enough. The twists & surprises in the plot were very, very, very well done. |

The acting is not bad, and there are many surprising twists and turns not in the original movie... The thing that kept me watching was the plot, but they kept throwing in new things, this combined with the slow pace, meant that I stopped watching after 8 episodes. |

COMPLETE. Runaway, falsely accused for murdering his beloved wife. A very suspenseful drama. let's follow's the runaways's running for freedom and searching the true criminal. Eguchi yosuke+abe hiroshi=powerful combination. I love them both! |

Yosuke Eguchi and Abe Hiroshi were awesome. Great chemistry. Unpredictable twists that kept me riveted (though I did wonder how long Yosuke Eguchi's character's lucky streak wld last). Plus a great soundtrack. Definitely worth a watch. |

Finally watch this drama after it's sitting on my collection for more the 3 years now. Typical of a Japanese thriler drama, consisting so many twist and turn that you won't know who is the real killer till the last episode. |

the best! my all time favorite now. ive never been this thrilled on a tv drama before. eguchi yosuke is cool and abe hiroshi. it made me want to wear a formal wear and just run around. sounds kind of silly... |

Runaway plot similar to Suna No Utsuwa. Only difference is you dunno who is the mastermind till the end. |
