Live Action with an Almost Amateur Production.

This miniseries was produced by Crunchyroll. Since it's their first live action, it caught my attention, and I wanted to give it a chance despite not being familiar with the original material.

We're dealing with a detective story, in this case, a pair consisting of a funny rookie and a young woman with more experience, who also faces deep family dramas.

The entire plot revolves around a single case that intertwines with and impacts the protagonists' personal lives.

There are some decent episodes, but overall, it feels long and heavy, progresses very slowly, and the case generates little to no interest in the viewer.

The main problem is that we're dealing with a very amateur production, possibly the worst of the year. There are audio issues, with segments in each episode where it's almost impossible to hear some relevant dialogue.
