The fact they went crazy with blood and special effects didn't help but I applaud them for that, the gore makes the drama better. Kindaichi and Miyuki can't have one normal vacation. At least three people die in an episode. I might be wrong but I don't remember even one villain that survived. Not even one murderer or a bad person went to jail because they all die at the end. Someone killed a person they cared about and now they are back for revenge with an overly complicated plan.
I understand that it's the plot but it's funny to see how will murder find them.Ī few patterns between episodes I noticed: They go somewhere with school, murder happens. They go on a treasure hunt, murder happens.
I like those kind of stories where the main characters are not detectives (in this drama Kindaichi is a grandson of a detective but he is a student so technically he has nothing to do with solving murder cases) yet wherever they go, murder is there. It's two students solving murder mysteries. This drama is fun to watch, the episodes and cases are not connected so there is no big story or a villain to defeat at the end. How did the murder happen? That's the question every episode.
