I've just finished watching this drama, still cannot escape from its obsession. This drama is incredible, the best drama ever seen. I love the storyline and the ending. Hideaki's act is really brilliant.

Sei, Sei, Sei... cannot stop calling his name...

You MUST watch this drama!!

This dorama is very good, as it is from Yoshida Akimi's best manga creation. Great stroryline, great cast, full of suspense. Pretty much different from most Jdoramas, but still very interesting.

my gosh this dorama is daymn good!!! It's very nice to see a rare mystery/thriller/action dorama.

I have to say, the cast in it was totally perfect. Hideaki Itou was utterly convincing playing two roles at once, the hero and the villain (Arisue Sei and Amemiya Rin). And the person who played as the blind guy was daymn good he really acted like a real one. 'Tasty' yet very nice to know tha fact that the japanese still has some great young actors in their entertainment industry who is not another dancing boyband pretty face turning themselves into horrible actors only by selling their looks and makes your sister become annoying by making them say "kakkoiii..." or "kawaiiii" every 10 minutes when they're watching a dorama with you in the living room.

No doubt on the script. Maybe that's why Abe Hiroshi agreed on only doing a side-role; being a bodyguard/asassin.

thinking that the manga-ish plot and chara development was too biased to be made into a dorama, once you've seen it, you will be feasted with such juicy mystery, yet the wrapping gives you vivid imagination making the storyline and characters feeling more realistic. And these facts erases all the pessimistic accusitions that i had when i watched the first episodes of this dorama ( the first two episodes were daymn slow and lead into dullness, but it was very worth continuing )
