Reasonable Bronzer Brush

Shinzanmono

It is a genre which I do very little echo on these pages even though it represents a large part of my diet dramas: the policeman. The reason for this near absence results from the frantic search for a series that will leave me feeling slightly superior to the equanimity that inspires me the vast majority of Japanese detective series. Unfortunately, Shinzanmono do not really extracted from this dreary lot.

In fact, my introduction is somewhat unfair vis-à-vis this type of dramas. It is certain that the next door that I was assigned by my attraction to the detective series, The Shield type, who come from across the Atlantic. If I did not expect to find this kind of murky and muscular production in Japan, I must confess my surprise to fall perpetually on sets that seem contrary to pour into a trend completely opposite. Yet in other types of programs or media, we can not say that the Japanese make really choosy about the excesses of all kinds. Nothing like these dramas in a surprisingly sober! One wonders sometimes if the series would not be called a "police" just because, as its main character belongs to the forces of order and Shinzanmono thus constitutes an excellent illustration.

From the mysterious murder of a woman in a typical popular district of Tokyo, the inspector Kaga (Hiroshi Abe) will interfere with the neighborhood to try to find the killer. The construction of the series is then very simple: each episode, because of flawed testimony, a new inhabitant finds himself in the crosshairs of the investigator. Note that the report of that testimony with the case sometimes seems very nebulous, even almost nonexistent. It is therefore quickly realized that the initial murder is ultimately an excuse for this series, whose purpose seems rather to make the viewer a voyeuristic journey to the heart of the life of a neighborhood where the little lies are revealed and the great secrets, family disputes and quarrels between neighbors. It would almost be surprised to be brought to the main survey in the last episode!

So, admittedly, all leaves are looking absently, especially since the cast is impeccable as rich, but I confess my dismay at finding myself the Japanese equivalent of a soap opera on TV France when I was looking just a good thriller with a hint of darkness and - the devil's greed! - A few drops of hemoglobin. My search for Japanese cop show whose plot will keep me in suspense throughout the story the other goes so ...

6 / 10: That wasn't too bad, I guess. Goal never worth a rewatch.
