For some reason Kadokawa is not very good at promoting their new shows at least in Western countries they often fall under the radar but luckily i sometimes see promotions for new episodes on their YouTube channel as like posts fully in japanese so I happened to watch one featuring a guy with bangs covering his eyes and the only text i could read was a magnifying glass emoji. Was it enough? Yes. At this point i am starting to realize that my love for detective stories is also driving me to its anime adaptation of the genre and im not disappointed so far. Apparently they like to use Sherlock Holmes as i sense the authors might have been inspired by Conan Doyles books and so this is the third time i see him as part of the show in this case not in the flesh but youll see why. The interesting twist is this Deranged detective who is the best but was cursed with eyes that force the culprits to kill themselves. He was therefore banned from the greatest detective school and forbid to solve any kind of crimes. But luckily coming in clutch is Detective Isshiki or simply Toto or even Tototo a notsodeductive agent but brave and purehearted willing to help the others lets say hes the arm of the team. The duo carries the show: some cases are interesting especially the long ones and this little additions of elements such as Rons weird way of analyzing the victims or his general deranged behavior as well as the need to save those that committed the crimes from committing notalive are all well thought. Some cases are a bit rushed even a little weird a few times but hey you get the light cases and then the more important ones you dont really think about them too much they are never boring and the pacing works as you get a 3episodes Case kinda inbetween the season making it the climax of the whole story so far and you just forget about the rest if not for some reminders every now and then. As for The supporting characters they are not just there: they have been developed we saw both their strength and weaknesses they add value which is not always the case for crime stories. Im referring to Spitz Amamiya and the super brilliant detective that uses tweezers. After this first season I hope good things are coming. The rhythm worked there are silly moments and more serious ones i rarely found them out of place. These first episodes introduced a sort of main antagonist something that can connect all the dots and there will be a lot to unpack. Second season could work like Link Click a main story after a season of standalone episodes that helped set up the world and the characters. Lastly kinda biased but coming from the jjk depression arc i enjoyed listening to both Yuuji and Utahime VAs playing different characters in a much happier and funnier environment this time.
