The CinePearl Take
The series’ strongest asset is its lead, whose dead‑pan delivery and simmering intensity give the courtroom scenes a palpable tension. Director Yamada’s pacing oscillates between rapid cross‑examinations and lingering cityscape shots, underscoring the theme that justice is as much about place as principle. While the plot occasionally meanders into melodrama, the show’s unflinching look at corruption keeps it compelling.
