English I fell into this melodrama and suddenly discovered that I love melodrama :-D I enjoyed watching them work, I felt as tense as they did, and I generally liked both main characters. I don't care how weird Saiko's motivation was because I never got bored with it. Only Miyoshi annoyed me, but thankfully only in limited, smaller doses. I enjoyed it and it was the only series where I was looking forward to the next episode. Good god, hurry up with season 2 ^_^ Another thing I loved was the opening. It suited the whole thing very well for me. A weaker 5 stars. ()
