I remember that a lot of my mutuals were talking about Anata no Ban Desu back then, and decided to binge watch this during lockdown back in 2020, and this was one of the J-doramas that really have gotten my attention. It is easily one of my fave J-doramas. This review will be for season 1.

If you're into thriller, mystery and murder; this drama may be up your alley.

Things I've liked about this drama:
- There are a lot of characters to suspect. Each one of them have their own quirks, and unusual behavior. Due to their mannerism and how they react, sometimes you have to question everyone of them 'Are they the culprit behind the murders of the tenants in the drama?'
- Despite the unrealistic attitudes of some of the tenants of the building, I really have to commend the acting of those whose characters have the weirdest and creepiest personality. Kudos to them, they really brought their characters to life and made me feel so uncomfortable with their characters throughout the drama.
- This whole drama was really interesting on how they executed it, each end of the episode makes you want to crave for more and see how the next scene/murder will unfold.
- I love the tone of the drama, let me just say the eerie background music really does set up the mood especially when discovering a murder or when investigating someone.
- The sudden plot twists that happen along the way. Honestly I loved how things would come up unexpected. Let me just say that I wasn't prepared on how they ended this season. I was seriously shocked.
- I'm a huge Aimer fan, so I absolutely love the opening song 'STAND-ALONE' for the drama. And the title name, kind of match the series, because the series makes you feel that you should stand alone and not trust anyone.

Cons:
- I felt off with the game they played at the meeting in the first episode and that lead to the start of the murders. Let's be honest, who in the right mind would bring up that kind of game during a tenant meeting?
- Even though I like the acting and that we have tons of suspect with their own personality in this drama. I felt that all the tenants are just not realistic to real life. I know it was another way to set the mood up for the drama, and make you suspect each one of them and also get creep out; but I felt it was a bit too over the top.
- Not all characters were fleshed out. If I'm not mistaken, we have to watch the spin off series to see every tenant's back story.
- It kind of bothered me, despite being married. The FL didn't really open up to the ML until things started going haywire.
- I'll be honest I wasn't really feeling the chemistry with the main leads for this. But this didn't really bother me too much, as I was more invested with the actual premise of the story.

Overall:
If you really love suspense, thriller, murder and mystery; you should definitely try this series out. Despite the weird characters, it's a drama that can get you hooked too and make you crave to see the following episodes and find who the culprit is. Re-watch value, yes I definitely would still want to watch this again but maybe after several years when I have forgotten the story.
