SYNOPSIS

タカヒロ Takahiro - Love Story

Umizuki Chinami is very intelligent, and she has passed the most difficult government officer exams. Like other so-called 'elite' and 'career officer', she is expected to rise to the top of the ranks of the police department due to her excellent credentials.

Chinami is already an inspector at such a young age. She is assigned to the 18th Unit of the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department to gain work experience.

The members of the 18th Unit are worried that Chinami will become a liability to them. If she ever makes a mistake, they will be forced to take responsibility because Chinami's work records must remain pristine.

Shitara Kyosuke, the youngest detective in the 18th Unit, is assigned to be Chinami's partner at work. He is tasked to look after Chinami so that she doesn't get into any trouble.

REVIEW
Senryokugai Sōsakan is an entertaining drama about a detective who has the intelligence necessary when conducting investigations, but lacks the physical brawn that is sometimes needed when dealing with criminals.

Umizuki Chinami is already an inspector but she lacks work experience. She has joined an investigation team to address her shortcomings, but other people in the police department are worried that they will be forced to take responsibility if she makes mistakes because Chinami is expected to have a promising career.

Chinami is assigned to work with Shitara Kyosuke, but he is actually assigned to look after her so that she won't get into any trouble. They work well together because of their different strengths. I like that although Kyosuke's strongest point is his physical prowess, he is not someone who is completely stupid.
