Bloody Monday

My luck had been running really well. The past few dramas which I've caught were excellent! Nodame and now Bloody Monday. It's one of the best, if not the best Japanese drama ever. Think along MR BRAIN, but now the police seemed so darn stupid.

The cast seemed rather boring, but now I understand why they did not require a star-studded cast. It is because the storyline is terrific! For 11 episodes, it felt like every episode was an action-packed movie filled with intense suspense and drama. There was absolutely not a single dull moment but really good enough not to give me serious heartattack for each episode.

Bloody monday is damn bloody nice that I'm even downloading the manga now.

To think I was still rather reluctant to start because of the cast, sigh. I did not know what I missed out for that year, deprived of such a good drama.

Sypnosis:
After a biological terrorist attack kills off the population of a Russian town; Japan's Public Safety Special Third unit, code name THIRD-i, believes that the terrorist organization responsible plans to unleash the same virus known as Bloody X into Tokyo. Subsequently, THIRD-i recruits the help of genius hacker Takagi Fujimaru to find out what happened in the Russia. However, as Fujimaru becomes involved, he soon finds out that he is in over his head and that the terrorist groups influence reaches not only his school but even the police. Fujimaru must now rely on his skill as a hacker to unravel the organizations sinister plot and find out the truth behind "Bloody Monday."


Here's the sypnosis, I'm not a fan of these kind of storyline, but the first minute the show started, i was HOOKED.


Ratings: 100/10. YOU JUST ABSOLUTELY CANNOT MISS THIS.

p.s the evil guy is Narimiya Hiroki, who looked so hot that i absolutely could not bring myself to hate him a single ounce.
