Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Aimed squarely at anyone who likes to solve it before the characters do and people who like their stories with a little danger. The investigation drives everything, one lead at a time. A trip back to the 1990s.
The mood
Tense, dark and gritty.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 59 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Graduating at the top of her class, elite detective candidate Jun Shibata is transferred to the section that handles cases deemed "unsolvable" by the department. Her partner, though a well-respected and experienced detective, has grown complacent after unsuccesfully pursuing these cases that many consider an exercise in futility. With her upper class breeding, her colleagues don't expect much from her either, but she suprises them all with her motivation and astounding powers of deduction. Well-constructed mysteries and colorful characters abound in this stylish and edgy police drama.
