At first, if I'm being honest, I cant say that I was really hooked in to this show from the beginning. The first episode was great, dont get me wrong! But, I feel like I started in the middle of an on-going series; so towards the third and fourth episode, I got extremely hooked! It wasnt fast paced, but it seemed like if you missed just one episode then you may have missed half of the story itself! The cast was really brought together well; their pasts and how it all came together seemed to mesh in to the on going stories well! If you're a Matsumoto Jun fan, then I would definitely recommend this; he does amazingly well! Although, I do have to say that I may like Eita more!
