Sala de Interrogatório de Emergência (2014)

I'll try to keep this review short and sweet :3 As opposed to the other review, my review is kind of positive for this drama. Sure, this wasn't the best drama that Amami Yuki has acted in, but in my opinion it is still worth a watch.

Pros:
- The music: I love the opening music whenever an episode starts. The horrifying music they played when there is a new case was kind of chilling as well. (It felt like a horror movie when that music is played)
- The characters/actors: Each character has their own personalities and I think the actors and actresses acted them out really well. Not only the investigators, but I felt the suspects themselves acted their roles superbly as well.
- Story (Episodic): The cases kept me intrigued till the end of each episode. Some of the outcomes were a pleasant surprise.

Cons:
- One of the detectives was quite annoying at first with his arrogant attitude
- The way they ended was okay but I wasn't really satisfied with it

This is my first review, so yoroshiku onegaishimasu. ^^ I recommend you to try the drama out if you have nothing to watch at the moment. It is not so bad to the point as reviewed in my opinion.

Thank you for reading :D

Veteran Japanese actors play a team of interrogators who 'undress' suspects with dramatic flair using only their cunning and empathy.


This drama is almost unparalleled in Japan. So popular it went on for three seasons, it boasts the brilliant script, the high quality production, and the acclaimed guest stars for each episode. It wouldn't be a big stretch to say that so much effort is rarely put in procedurals. Most importantly, the real human emotions run high every episode giving the show a dramatic edge and universal appeal more genre works usually lack. Great tension, pacing, and consistently witty dialogues keep the viewer engaged.

At the centre of the drama, though, is Amami Yuki. She perfected her presence and charisma during her time as a Takarazuka performer, and she is simply majestic here as the strong female character J-dramas deserve. Her chemistry with other interrogators played by the veteran actors is through the roof.

There are two reasons why this drama in not on top of the Mydramalist Rating.

Firstly, there are no ikemen in the main cast. Admittedly, it's a stupid reason but rare comic relief scenes with Hayami Mokomichi do not an idol drama make (and heart wants what it wants). I'd recommend you to give it a chance nonetheless as the cast is unbelievably entertaining.

The second reason is the case-of-the-week structure of the show. A lot of action happens inside confines of an interrogation room so there is no space for elaborate overcomplicated sensationalistic cases. The final arc of the show has appropriate sinister foreshadowing but would hardly shock anyone.

All in all, it's a brilliant Japanese production with the second season being even better than the first.
