"The Crow of the First Criminal Division" (Fuji TV Monday at 9 p.m.), starring Toyo Takeno Uchiha (50), was the first TV series to start broadcasting in prime time on the ground wave. The 5th household rating was 13.9% (Video Research Kanto region data), making a good start.
This is the 10 consecutive episodes of "Fuji Month 9" that have reached double digits since the July 2018 file of "Absolute Zero Degree ~ Unsolved Crime Infiltration and Search ~". Prior to this, there was a period when the average rating of 10 episodes had fallen to 6%, so that the overall influence of the 9th of the month had dropped significantly, and this time it was expected to be revived again as a sign slot.
"Abandoning the 'love' theme and adjusting in time to the humanistic TV drama route that the target audience prefers, around medical treatment or events, can really be reflected in the ratings." (Advertising Agency Related Persons)

Adapted from the manga of the same name by Ritsu Asami, "The Crow of the First Criminal Division" is a legal-themed television series that tells the story of the judge of the "First Criminal Division of the Third Branch of the Tokyo District Court" (commonly known as the First Criminal Division). Takenouchi plays the protagonist as an out-of-the-box judge who graduated from high school and worked as a lawyer, while Kuroki (31) plays an orthodox judge who graduated from the Law School of Todai.
After the first episode aired, it received praise on the Internet such as "very interesting" and "I haven't seen this style of TV series", but at the same time, many people pointed out, "This way of music insertion and character setting... It's not like Kimura and Matsu takako's HERO" "It's interesting, but the incident is too messy."

"The character settings of Takenouchi and Kuroki, the way Fumiyoshi Kohinata played their boss, and the use of music have made many people think of HERO. But I think that's exactly what they're 'for.'" ”
It was TV columnist Mr. Tokuaki Kamei who said this. Kamei said, "After watching the first episode, I understood after I learned the ratings the next day. ”
He continues, "There are still a lot of people who want to see Takuya Kimura's HERO, but these people also understand that HERO is difficult to make a sequel. Therefore, Takenouchi, who was the same era as Kimura, came to perform a work similar to HERO, and people also ate this set. Moreover, Takenouchi interpreted this out-of-the-box judge with the delicate and soft feeling of an adult. In a sense, this old-fashioned and easy-to-understand routine can make the audience who has experienced the heyday of the 9th of the month very comfortable, isn't it? ”
Kimura in HERO is a TV shopaholic, and Takenochi in "The Raven of the First Criminal Division" is a hometown tax collector. Mimicking the milk boy's "Isn't this HERO" and "This doesn't seem to be HERO" stems are a big proof.
In the second episode, which aired on the 12th, Atsuko Maeda (29) will appear as a mother accused of child abuse. (Translated by Cang Yu)
