The way Kusumi turned pale when he learned that Saionji is using dating app

Yugo Aosaki, the author of “Undead Girl Murder Farce,” is the one responsible for the Japanese drama/mystery/detective series, “Knockin’ on Locked Door.” It is his forte.

Perhaps, am a sucker for any stories about detective duo (or -coded characters) that make my heart aflutter. While Yugo was in deep writing “Undead…” he also wrote about the two young detectives, like a young SH and JW, but fresh uni grads, who have different approaches on solving a case. Gotemba Tōri and Katamushi Hisame, who after their graduation, co-run a detective agency and work on the cases brought by the clients. Yet, there lies the difference, bc the huge mystery they have to solve is their own. It concerns a neck scar of Tōri. Once, when Tōri was hurt during the case, lying on the floor bloodied and unconscious, Hisame fainted. Now the question is why.

Reminds me of different modern iterations of SH and JW. Sherlock BBC, Kamonohashi Ron no kindan suiri, etc.

Height difference

Messy longish wavy hair vs straight hair

The scar neck

The onsen/bath scenes

Chaos as Tōri’s aesthetic vs Hisame’s sense of order

Tōri has the habit of twirling his hair when he’s about to do some deduction also when he’s stressed. Hisame, on the other hand, cannot stop touching his eyesglasses when he is about to make his

Tōri likes his black turtlenecks and moccasins whereas Hisame loves it formal with his suit and eyeglasses

These two reenact the crime scenes in order to analyse the events that happened during the case. They are also touchy-feely to one another. They are comfy with their familiarity. Also, the actors’ chemistry. I love it.

Hisame: Why don't you take it off? Tori: What? Hisame: The towel. There's no one else besides us right now. Tori: I'm good.

Knockin' on Locked Door, episode 1

And then Hisame reached out and touched the towel on Tori's neck and Tori completely froze - I loved how the sound just cut out.

And then it was revealed - while they were getting dressed in the locker room - that there was a huge scar on Tori's neck from when someone obviously slashed his throat.

And at the same time, the main baddie was introduced, Mikage - played by, holy smokes, Saotome Taichi, him of of the incredible Fuujinshi! - saying...

What's my relationship with them? We were in the same seminar in college. And of the four of us, one got the job of catching criminals, two got the job of exposing crime and the last one... got the job of creating it.

... while it was more than strongly implied that it was him who cut Tori's throat. Wow. Just wow!

Too bad that this drama isn't fully subbed yet - 7 out of 9 eps are done at the mo - but I just couldn't wait anymore. The relationships among the main four - the female cop, the two private detectives... and the serial killer - are so fascinating!
