Cast is amazing, as usuall, I was so happy to see Minami, Kanou, Kirishima, J and of course Fujimaru and Otoya.
Story is really great and full of surprises, whenever I thought someone is who is, I turned wrong.
Watch it, you won't regret.
*waits for part 3 or film forever*

At the end, I was shocked again, when Spider's indetity was uncovered. I though that there were just innocent flirt between Mrs. Doctor and Kanzaki... only conspiracy, J. should have died and huge inner transformation. They cheated me!
I counted that Otoya will have a bigger role, but unfortunately he coudn't do too much and he was waiting in base.

My favourite character is J and officially became my favourite villain, Hiroki has portrayed him magnificently, I have never loved some bad guy like I love him. ;-)
As for the story, it's pretty much the same as the first season or should I say the season 2 continues where season1 has stopped. And everything was great, also what is so good and different about this show is that many good guys die, some of the main characters die and that constant suspense and doubt who is the the main bad guy, great. Music was good like in the first season, fits in the moments perfectly.
I have found this drama in this genre that I love so much and that suit me so well, definitely became one of my favourite dramas in the crime, action,suspense genre. And I could watch it right now again because of such a stunning acting, brilliant performances by all the actors and great happenings through the whole drama. This is the drama that never gets boring for sure.

Not As Good As Season 1
I never read the Manga, but I did watch Season 1. Miura Haruma, Narimiya Hiroki and Satoh Takeru gave fantastic performances. The music was okay, but could've been better for adding suspense to some scenes. The story concept was good, but the writing and execution had too many holes. The Hornet vs The Falcon wasn't as intense as it should've been. There was enough suspense and action to keep me interested and watching all the way to the end.However, like many other Japanese dramas/thrillers the production is not good and the director is lacking. Throughout the season no camera stabilizer was used, so the film is shaky and took away from the watchability of the show. It gave me a migraine, it was that bad. It didn't matter if the camera zoomed in or was out , the whole thing shook like a person who had too many Red Bulls or Coffee. Also there were scenes where the evil doer was trying to be all stealthy, but they didn't use a silencer on the gun? That's just stupid and amateurish. Also bad directing is that guns were pointed way to close to the other person's face. The point of using a gun instead of a knife, is so you can kill from a distance. Either you are a terrible shot or you've never used a gun. This all should've been caught by the director. With such great actors, these mistakes kept the show from hitting a higher overall score, hence 6/10.

Acting/Cast: the four main actors returned in season 2 but for one they didn't last through the end. I only enjoyed Beast's actor because he was more cool to watch. The rest of the terrosits actors ehh didn't enjoy, didn't seem to be bad enough guys. Again acting was excellent for the sad parts.
Music: I enjoyed the music in season 2 than season 1. The music here makes you feel about this season with all the events happening. It's a perfect match to the drama especially after a big loss to a character.
Rewatch Value: Yep I would of course watch it over again.
Overall: I wished it had maybe one or two more episodes because 9 felt too short. Bloody Monday became a favorite drama of mine and I'm also reading the manga too. Falcon looked ridicules holding a gun at times, he should of trained more to protect himself.

Unexpected
Yes, that's the word for it: unexpected. Even though the first episode is a bit long, the plot is really good from the very beginning. Falcon is even more challenged when a great hacker makes his appearance and there's a nuclear bomb threatening Japan. You have to expect the unexpected in every episode because you never know one's true intention: who can you trust?Acting was as always great.
Music, as in the first season, suited the mood.
I think it's better than the first season, although it is recommended to watch also the first season, this is why my rewatch value is 9.
