Today I would like to recommend to you the suspenseful reasoning drama "Continue" directed by Yukihiko Tsui (representative works: "Memories of Tomorrow", "Sky Bee", "Adult Style of Love", "Call for Love in the Center of the World", "SPEC", etc., his films with mystical color style, creating characters with very personality, known as "ghost director") in 1999.
If you are a friend who likes suspenseful reasoning Japanese dramas, I believe that you must have seen "Spec" starring Toda Keirika and Ryo Kase, which is also known as "Continue 2", in which the Seta couple CP abused a group of people. But today I'm going to talk about another cp pair– the Chunche couple.
The drama stars Miki Nakatani (masterpieces: "Under the Same Roof", "The Life of the Rejected Matsuko", "The Poem of Masochism" is known as "Japan's Last Beautiful Girl of the 20th Century"), Watanabe Tokuro (masterpieces: "Summer Without Love", "White Night", "Jinling Thirteen").
Jun Shibata (played by Miki Nakatani)
The background of the story is set in a task group that is not taken seriously in the Metropolitan Police Department's search for a lesson and a lesson, which is responsible for dealing with the unsolved cases of some unresolved incidents, and the symbolic formal meaning is called "continue".
Toru Mayama (played by Tokuro Watanabe)
The leader of the unit, Kotaro Nonomura, and the cadres include Toru Mayama (Watanabe Tokuro), Kido Sai, Tsuyoshi Taniguchi, Akio Kondo, etc., each criminal police officer is hidden, but for various reasons, he is sent to this cold gate. And with the arrival of Jun Shibata (Miki Nakatani), a hilarious hibiscus of Todai who lives an idiot, everything becomes weird.
Shibata Junzhen Yamato
In the series of the nineties, there were no gorgeous special effects in the later stages, the actors did not have exquisite makeup, and only the acting skills of the actors themselves were improving the excitement of the series, and there is no doubt that they did it perfectly.
Jun Shibata, played by Miki Nakatani, is a natural and unsophisticated genius, who can't distinguish between east and west, north and south, confused, but has an unusual ability to solve cases, and often forgets to take a bath and sleep for many days because of serious case solving, or even eating. Such a strange intern criminal police officer also made a lot of jokes: because he taught others to do problems and helped office workers repair computers on the way to work, he invaded the US military system, and looked at the luck guide in the gossip magazine to find the destined person, so he never arrived on time. When solving the case, he took his partner around in circles because he couldn't find a direction.
Pure couple
Masayama Toru, played by Totsuro Watanabe, always looks bored, as if he doesn't care about anything, but he has a lot of secrets in his heart. Carrying a heavy past on his back, he struggles with the super-powered murderer who persecutes his dead sister, which makes people sigh and feel sad at the same time.
As a responsible pusher, Qian Qian chose not to completely spoil, so I will talk about another highlight in this drama in addition to the wonderful and outstanding reasoning: the love between Jun Shibata and Masayama.
The two lack the spark of a fierce collision, and some are just the feelings cultivated in the long days of the thin water.
No matter how ridiculous Shibata's behavior may seem to outsiders, Masayama complained in his mouth, but his legs involuntarily followed Shibata's pace.
Trusting her unconditionally and supporting her, even when Shibata is considered a murderer, Masayama uses the kindness that others owe him to buy shibata time, and is eventually shot by a pistol for blocking the police operation.
Masayama's gentle gaze was all given to Shibata, who complained that Shibata was sloppy, shouted "Your hair stinks to death", complained that Shibata acted according to his own will, but the two hearts were already close together, and the two sought the feelings of peace in each other.
The two people in the play ended without a problem, but the two people outside the play came together, the gentleness in the play, and the outside of the play was even worse.
Strange directors, even more bizarre screenwriters, have created "Continue" where the fight against crime continues forever.
