Synopsis
Komikado Kensuke is stubborn, abusive in his language, sarcastic, moody, and an extravagant spender. To the contrary, he has never lost a case in his life. His love for money, fame, and women obviously collects the dislikes of other professionals in the field. Kensuke loathes the textbook of justice the young lawyers try to brandish. Unexpectedly, Mayuzumi Machiko is a lawyer who passed her bar exam through hard studies. She is overly earnest in her mission of saving the weak, and rather clumsy and incapable of planning ahead. Her lack of versatility and strong righteousness drives her reckless, without compromise to her convictions. Passionate and determined, she is the complete opposite of Kensuke's character.
"Justice is the winner," Kensuke stands by this belief without doubt. In the courtroom, Kensuke reminds us of the feeling we had all forgotten: To fight with all our energy and to never give up. --Fuji TV

Review
I started watching this dorama because of Taguchi and quickly fell in love with Komikado.
He is SO funny, especially when he speaks very fast and for a long time xD
The comedy due between Komikado and Mayuzumi is hilarious and there is never a dull moment.
It is very tense and every fun!
Again, great guest people in it and I was so happy to learn that Namase Katsuhisa was in it because I immediatly remembered Gokusen and was like 'this is going to be so funny!'
There's twists in this too which actually turn out to be more hilarious over shocking xDD
I thought there was gunna be some romance in the dorama too between those two people xD
And.. I wanna know ALL of Hattori's background!!!!
