Seigi no se

It doesn't impress, doesn't offend, doesn't wallow in relationship clichés. A series that focuses on an aspiring prosecutor named Takemura. She's getting comfortable in her new job, getting used to it and her new co-workers, and they're getting used to her. It's enjoyable, it's not over the top and Yasuda Ken, as her assistant, comes across as a very likeable character. Even Yuriko's character is a perfectly normal woman who makes mistakes but also does a good job. No one here has extraordinary abilities, so the whole series feels real. And repetitive. We have the classic pattern of one case = one episode. Each time it's a different case, but each time we join Takemura and try to defend and protect the weaker side. A great series for dinner time, for relaxation. It's entertaining, it's watchable, but it's not a gem. Maybe only in the fact that none of the characters are particularly eccentric and no one here is a caricature of their category. An improved 3 stars. (23/07/2019)
