 Title: MR. BRAIN
Genre(s): Comedy, Detective, Mystery Year(s): 2009 Episodes: 8 Rating: 9/10
Synopsis:Tsukumo Ryuusuke, a host whose brain was damaged in an accident. After recovering, he went on and became a neuroscientist and has been newly employed in the Institute of Police Science in a newly formed Brain Department. The show follows him through several cases where his knowledge of the mysteries of the human brain helped the police in cracking several difficult cases.Review:The deciding factor in me watching this was of course, Kimura Takuya. He's like, in my opinion, the king of JDrama. The first JDrama that drew me into the JDrama world was starred by him. He has awesome acting and a nice face =P What more could a girl ask for?Now, I did not say that I love this drama  just because Kimura's in it. The story is great, each episode's story is pretty innovative for a detective drama, and believe me I've seen a LOT of those. It is centered around the idea of "brain" and each case is solved partially based on facts of the brain. Can't forget about the humor either. Although it isn't filled with laughable material, there are bits and pieces of humor through out (mostly in the interaction between Tsukumo and his assistant Kazune (Ayase Haruka). Aside from the plot, the casts were also a nice surprise. Up until what I have seen, even the supporting/guest casts were composed of well-known and popular actors/actresses. In episode one, Hirosue Ryoko made a brief appearance; episode 2 had Koyuki (from Kimi wa Petto) and Gackt. Yes, Gackt, I was quite shocked when I was just skimming through the episode  and paused on a scene where I went, "Why does this guy look like...Gackt?" Haha, well, to my surprised, it WAS Gackt. He played the part of a psychopath serial killer, and er, I guess he fit the role.In episode 3, the most notable cast, IMO, is Kamenashi Kazuya from KAT-TUN. Now, I'm a KAT-TUN fan and I've seen several of Kame's dramas. Although he's been called "viewership poison" by a few people after his last role in not-so-well-liked "Kami no Shizuku," he's still very popular and I for one like his acting (And face of course. I am more of a Jin fan though, but that's besides the point). Another actress I am fond of: Nakama Yukie is to appear in episode 5 and 6. As you can see, the show has done well in casting with some pretty big-time actors/actresses. This has got to be my favorite show this year. |
