Ishiko to Haneo: Sonna Koto de Uttaemasu? (2022)

Interesting episodes to start, but fizzles out soon after

Each case really does have quite a compelling premise. The types of cases are also very interesting because they're civil suits, not criminal ones, which we've already seen too much of in both Asian and North American dramas. The problem is that the middle section of each case gets really boring and I end up dropping it for a couple of days before I try to finish it.

What I liked:
- unusual and interesting cases
- favourite case was Oba's
- male and female leads - actors had pretty good chemistry
- creating a protagonist who has a superpower, but who also has a major flaw
- the other supporting characters in the ensemble

What was problematic:
- writer/director didn't know how to build up complexity in a story to keep it interesting
- Ishiko's and Oba's dynamics > actors had no chemistry with one another

Since there are more things that I like about this drama than not, it should have got a higher rating. However, the overall series is just very blah.
