Boss : The Japanese New Detective Mini Series

General Plot:
This series revolves around a group of peculiar detectives in a new division created to fight against an increase in atrocious crimes. Osawa Eriko is a beautiful career woman who has just returned from training in the U.S. and is appointed as the "boss" of this division. But despite her intelligence and capabilities, she can never understand a man's heart, so she remains unable to find a husband. In fact, her assignment in the U.S. was really a demotion after she ruined her career track over a man. So why was she chosen as the boss of the new division? Even though the detectives are talented, they all have some kind of issue or flaw, and they are considered to be the "problem children" of the police force. In the end, the division's true purpose is just to isolate these problematic detectives.

Nota Jase :
I just finished watching this detective drama late last week after one week bought the original DVD at of of the DVD outlet at ground floor of Wangsa Walk. Yes, I have been following Takenouchi Yutaka since his Beach Boys time. In 1998 if I am not mistaken. It has been quite a while after his last mini series 'Tomorrow' that I watched 2 years ago. My general feeling about this series are some of the case are too complicated yet very easy to resolve. The main charactor, the Lady Boss (Amami Yuki) - centre of attraction played her card well. Like usual Japanese series, most charactors have thier own characteristics that make the series more flamboyant. Quite entertaining good release tension. Takenouchi Yutaka won the Best Supporting Actor in the Japan 61st Television Drama Academy Awards for his role in this series. Boss is currently screening on 8TV every Sunday @ 3.00 pm.
