5 Crime J-Dramas You Could Watch

Investigation dramas that have a good mix of seriousness and comedy with strong chemistry among the casts.

1) Hakozume ~Tatakau! Kouban Joshi (2021)

20 year old rookie police office Kawai Mai (Mei Nagano) joins the police force out of family expectations for her to be a civil servant and as such she does not have the right motivation to push through when things get tough when she becomes physically and mentally drained.

Feeling unappreciated serving the ungrateful and rude citizens, she contemplates her life and considers quitting, until she was assigned to an enigmatic and fearless senior officer, 30 year old Fuji Seiko (Erika Toda) , who is said to be a former ace detective who was demoted.

After going on patrols with Fuji, Kawai became inspired by her driven nature and wishes to be like her. Over the course of the series, they solve numerous realistic ordinary cases that everyday police officers faced, unlike the typical armed robbery cases you often see on TV series. 

2) Tengoku to Jigoku: Psychona Futari (2021)

Mochizuki Ayako (Haruka Ayase) is a determined and passionate 35 year old who is the only female detective in her department that she works hard to earn herself a name and seek justice to hunt down law breakers like the shrewd Hidaka Haruto (Issei Takahashi) who often gets away with his crimes.

Ayako has come close to apprehending Haruto under the full moon when something mysterious happens that knock them both unconscious. When they re-awakened, they discovered that they have swap bodies, much to Haruto's delight. Now Haruto in Ayako’s body is arresting Ayako in Haruto’s body!

The game begins as one tries to outwit the other as Ayako tries to buy time to figure out what happened and how to get her body back while Haruto takes the opportunity of being a police officer to frame Ayako for the crimes instead so that when their bodies switched, Ayako will be arrested instead of Haruto. 

3) Unnatural (2018)

Misumi Mikoto (Satomi Ishihara) is a forensic investigator who works for the special department that investigates unnatural cause of death, solving dead-end cases or re-opening cases due to requests from police departments or family members of the deceased who wants a full closure .

She works with her team of misfits of different characters and backgrounds, from arrogant veteran investigator who has record breaking of solving numerous cases to a young part time officer, fresh from school who wants to work to gain experience and learn the ropes of becoming an investigator .

I think it is the most interesting show out of the five here as each episode are like puzzle solving where the story start off with one assumption leading you think that it might be this case but halfway through it makes you think that it might be that case but eventually it turns out to be something unexpected.

4) Hello, Detective Hedgehog (2017)

Goro Nanase (Eita) and Kyusaku Kogure (Go Morita) are private detectives at Akatsuka Detective Agency, which is led by Kaoru Kaze (Tomoko Yamaguchi) . They handle dead-end or weird cases that the police do not want to handle, from corporate conspiracy, to treasure hunting and ghost sightings.

On their bad days when they are struggling to pay the space rent of their agency, they even perform non-investigative cases like fulfilling strange requests from clients which eventually turned into a genuine criminal case when some mishap happen along the way.

Their days of being private detective changes when they assisted Ranko Shidawara (Kyoko Fukada) who believes that her father was murdered and did not commit suicide as the police and company led her to believe. Their antics alone are worth watching as it's meant to be a lighthearted show.

5) You're Under Arrest (2002)

The story revolves around two police officers, Natsumi Tsujimoto (Misaki Ito) and Miyuki Kobayakawa (Sachie Hara) . Being an officer is not as glamorous as you would think, just like any other jobs, there are the good days and there are the bad days on the job, dealing with difficult people and challenging tasks.

Although they are with the traffic police department, but their line of work often cross path with criminal in progress activities that they decide to take matters into their own hands instead of waiting for the respective back up team to arrive which cause jurisdiction problems with the other department.

I love their complex relationships as they have opposing personalities, mindset and way of doing things, which makes them conflict each other from time to time but once they learn to set aside their differences to work together, they're an unstoppable pair.

【日剧】 非自然死亡 (Unnatural) 🎬 | 你的人生 属于你自己

这部剧于2018年播出，而我却在2021年把它看了。想想虽迟，但却来的刚刚好。如果2018的我看了这部剧，可能不会有2021获益良多的我。

其中有好几集让我印象深刻。

「非自然死亡」 第四集 // 为了谁而工作

佐野祐斗是‘幸福蜂蜜蛋糕’工厂生产的负责人，几乎每日都因高销售量而加班。一天在送蜂蜜蛋糕的过程中，因疲劳驾驶不幸出了车祸，伤及了要害。

没有及时到医院检查，只是匆忙的赶回家，看到自己的儿女睡着了，才露出一丝感慨，说道：

❝ 等他们长大以后，能过得幸福就好了 ❞

佐野什么都不求，只希望自己的儿女以后要过得幸福，一直都要幸福下去。这不就是我们的父亲吗？为了子女拼命的赚钱养家。不图什么，只图孩子们的美好的未来、幸福、平安。

从佐野送蜂蜜蛋糕开始一直到他回到家，烟花贯穿了这部分的情节。烟花代表一瞬的美丽、刹那的花火。当时倒地的佐野看向在夜里绽放的烟花，想必这是对他来说在黑暗里的一抹希望，一种心灵上慰籍。好像加班在幸苦什么的，都不重要了。

后来影片结尾久部问三澄为什么而工作时，三澄却毫无犹豫的答道：

当被三澄反问的时候，久部坦诚自己还不知道自己的梦想是什么。三澄便说：“梦想什么的，也没必要说得那么夸张，有个目标就行。比如拿了工资去买些什么，有了假期就去哪儿走走，或者是为了谁而工作。”

对啊。何必要有远大的梦想，看太遥远的天边，倒不如享受当下，活出自己。若远处的风景遥不可及，那么就脚踏实地走好脚下的路。

「非自然死亡」 第五集 // 死之报复

记得这一集的铃木在猜到杀死挚爱的凶手时，毫不犹豫地一刀刺向她。

这一刀是愤怒。

可笑的是，杀人凶手并没有一丝忏悔的意思，这一点却触起了铃木继续捅刀的欲望。 三澄为阻止悲剧的发生，大喊 “不行，铃木先生，现在还来得及！”  三澄想要劝其收手，否则一辈子便会背着杀人犯的罪名在监狱里过度一生。 铃木却说：

❝ 来得及什么啊，果步（恋人）已经死了。  ❞

随后，即使有UDI成员们的呐喊，铃木在犹犹豫豫后终于把手里的刀再次捅下去。 这一刀是绝望。

恋人已死去，就算做什么事也无力回天了。 虽然三澄出于好心，不想要铃木的人生这样浪费了，她希望他带着希望活下去，犹如她一样。但是可以理解当恋人因这种奇葩的理由而被人杀害时，心里定然憋屈伤心。这也是铃木最后能为恋人做的最后一件事。

影片结尾的部分， 三澄质问中堂为什么“怂恿”铃木杀人，而不是将其制止时，中堂却说：“杀人犯要有被杀的觉悟。” 这一句却显得好真实。

「非自然死亡」 第七集 // 杀人游戏

这是关于校园霸凌的自杀事件。记得三澄说过一句话：

❝ 法律是无法制裁名为欺凌的杀害。 ❞

法律只会相信证据，实在的杀害，法律不会顾虑心理上的损害。所以说，情绪上的攻击，其实往往会比肉体上的伤害来的更大。

当白井想要以自杀报复欺凌他们的人的时候，三澄说：“他们一定会转学，改名，开始他们崭新的人生，彻彻底底忘记你的死，开开心心地活下去。就算你献出了你的生命，他们也丝毫不会感受到你的痛苦。” 

霸凌者绝对不会对一个受害者的遭遇感同身受。只因他们从来不被欺凌，永远不会理解被霸凌的痛苦和绝望。

最后当UDI成员到达白井的所在地时，白井弱弱的问: “横山（好友）已经死了， 只有我活了下来，这样真的可以吗？” 

这是独活者的罪恶感。

中堂回答：

❝ 已死之人无法给你答案，今后的人生，你就为了能活得他的原谅而活下去吧。 ❞

「非自然死亡」 第八集 // 遥远的归途 

这一集我哭得最惨。三郎为了救人，最终不行葬身火海。三郎的父亲是消防员，而他也从来没有忘记父亲教他的捆绑法。看到这里瞬间泪目。 三郎虽然早早便离家出走，他虽然没有一个家，但对他来说，在那栋楼里喝酒打麻将，就是他的家。因此他才会奋不顾身的往火海里去救人。

三郎的父亲虽然表面上严厉，开头的时候还怒斥着儿子，但终究忍不住落泪。

❝ 有些话只有趁活着的时候才能说。❞

三郎与他的父母亲隔了一层薄纱，彼此都把关心的话憋在心里，最终没有把该说的话都说出来。有时候，面子大不会带来什么好处。对挚爱之人，面子什么的，可能没那么重要。切勿等到没有机会了，才来后悔遗憾。

这部日剧我学到了要尊重死亡，以平常心看待生死，乐观地面对人生。它教会我不再绝望，把日子过好，做好该做的事。此外，这部剧也有提到很多社会议题，譬如病毒、霸凌、贿赂、道德腐败等迹象，值得我们探讨以及反省。

还有由米津玄師演唱地 ❛Lemon❜ 为主题歌真的太契合剧中主题内容了。

评分：9.5/10

☆ﾟ.*･ 你的人生，属于你自己 *ﾟ+

今でもあなたはわたしの光  ( 时至今日 你仍是我的光芒) 

愿今后，我们都以乐观面对人生！

Unnatural (Ep 3)

Misumi Mikoto (Satomi Ishihara) was humiliated by a lawyer in court for her lack of experience leading her credibility being questioned, regardless of her comprehensive data presented in court.

Nakado Kei (Iura Arata) took over the case and gave the lawyer a taste of his own medicine. It's so satisfying to see a misogynist and sexist lawyer gets what he deserves. Even Misumi is pleased.

Nakado Kei is the man.I'm happy that she's happy.😆

The lawyer purposely insults Mikoto to rile her up into taking the bait to prove his point to the court but with Kei he turned the tables and rile up the lawyer instead.

Sometimes, it takes a ruthless person to take down a ruthless person.

Unnatural (Ep 10)

Your job is not make the jobs of others easier. They are paid to deal with their problems just as you are paid to deal with yours. 

Kamikura had enough of the lawyer wanting to make his own job easier by shifting the blame to the forensics and blackmailing them.
