I rarely write reviews, especially negative ones because I firmly believe that there are productions which can have high value for one watcher and low value to other, depending on one's mindset and preferences. I'm not familiar with the story behind the drama and whether it was originally an anime/manga/LN. However, what i saw was total nonsense. At first I was thinking of giving it a 5 star rating purely for the detective cases but the whole Maria concept and the way Akechi "handled" her was just plain ridiculous and the ending episode was the final nail in the coffin. I cannot express how infuriated i was with the whole plot and all those Akechi-Maria-police interactions so i'm just gonna stop here with my review....
