I've just watched the first episode of the series Mr. Brain and I really enjoyed that first episode. I feel that I may enjoy this series and the scenes for episode 2 are really pulling me in. I mean hello!! An insane Gackt!
The main character seems like a mix of L, Near, Mello (Deathnote), Conan/Shinichi (Detective Conan), Adrian Monk (Monk series), and Colombo (Colombo series; but only in the sense that he seems to figure out who did it, just have to figure out how). lol
Wish I could get it on DVD to show my folks though with English subs, as I feel that they may like this series as well since it is police-based. I doubt most J-drama shows are marketed outside of Japan for a foreign audience.
