WAKUWAKU JAPAN : AIBOU - Tokyo Detective Duo (DRAMA Review)
After some romatic movies review in the previous posts, now I have to share you my recent addiction : Aibou - Tokyo Detective Duo. As a lover of crime/mystery-based novel stories, I enjoy seeing this famous series so much. It's been aired since 2000 and had 3 (three) big cinema movie launched based on its episodes as well. Now let me share some basic review to guide you, below!
Drama Title : Aibō - Tokyo Detective Duo
Cast : Yutaka Mizutani, Kaoru Kameyama
Channel : TV Asahi
DRAMA PLOT
Aibō (相棒 / Partners) is centered on the daily situation inside Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's fictional unit called Special Missions. The inspector of this unit is Ukyō Sugishita (杉下右京 - portrayed by Yutaka Mizutani), a protagonist who partnered with Kaoru Kameyama (亀山薫 - played by Yasufumi Terawaki). This division is unpopular among others, but they're trying to solve difficult cases throughout the whole season.
REVIEW
The combination between Ukyō-san (who's calm and highly intelligent) and Kaoru (the energetic and young-spirited) is my favorite thing from this movie. It brought the stories into something more rich and real, which is way more enjoyable. I also love the wicked genius crime scenes, the story-telling, the sets, the songs... Aibou might not using a drama approach, but it does talk about life a lot.
Watching Aibou, just like watching any other Japanese drama and entertainment content has been a lot easier now for Indonesian fans, thanks to WAKUWAKU JAPAN. If you're looking for WAKUWAKU JAPAN Channel at home, go to Ch. 168 (Indovision) or Ch. 32 (OKEvision). For searching another programs or checking schedule, you can go to their Official Site.
