J-Drama: Bitter Blood 2014

You read it right, it's Japanese. I still love Korean Dramas and will always watch it. This time I am watching a Japanese drama only because of Takeru Sato. Although, I have also watched other J-drama before but that was a long long time ago, Kimi wa petto and Princess Princess. I'd rather watch Japanese Anime than their drama because of the animated way that the actors act.
Since it's Takeru Sato, I'll give it a shot. I loved him in Rurouni Kenshin Live Action Film. I am excited to watch the second movie. It was after watching RK that I discovered that he was also portrayed one of the characters of Princess Princess Live Drama. He looked so gay then.

Sahara Natsuki (Takeru Sato) is a new detective at the Ginza Police Station. Unfortunately, he had to work with his father who abandoned them and had a another family. He does not like his father at all. They are very different since his father is playboy while he is not so good with the ladies. See if this father-son partnership would last.

As expected of a J-Drama, their expressions are a little exaggerated, just like what you see in anime except that they are real people doing such expressions. The animated acting makes it more fun to watch. First episode show how different the father and the son are. Both show how they disliked each other and their ideas clash. Sahara Natsuki is a very righteous person, one that will not leave things the way it should be which lead him to cause trouble on his first day of duty.
