Truth is...

....No one knows except one certain, specific person. However, where that person is.... Also, no one knows.

Multiple mysteries and thrilling stories are told in a mesmerizing and fascinating fashion. Each episode was full of honest, relatable curiosity; who truly is who they say they are? This story shows the reality of people, their issues with trust, the masks they wear, and the truth they show to other people. This entire show had me contemplating and calculating just who the mastermind honestly was... And I never once would have guessed the answer!

If you are a fan of any actor in this show, a good mystery where the thrills continue to build and build while you watch on the edge of your seat as if on pins and needles, extraordinary raw emotions that are relatable and heartwrenching then definitely give this show a chance. There aren't a lot of confusing definitions or legal terms it's like the viewer is led through the Japanese court system with each episode. However, murder, mystery, and lies are not the only things being "taught" or shown throughout this story, though none of this story is told as if the viewer is being preached to or things are overly cheesy or dramatic, either.

While there wasn't any real cliffhanger at the end of this story, personally there were a few questions I would have liked answered. This story is one of the most "I had no idea [this person] did it!" shows I have seen in a long time. At no point did I expect the story to become what it did in the end, nor did I believe [culprit name] was the actual culprit! This story will leave you guessing up until the very last minute!
