Tantei Gakuen Q

All you Malaysians who love comics have probably heard of 'Sekolah Detektif Q', a manga created by the same peple who brought to life Kindaichi Hajime of the 'Penyiasat Remaja' manga (Sorry, folks, I don't know the English translation of the title because, hello~, I'm a Malaysian and thus, all the mangas had to be translated into Bahasa Malaysia. And I can't read Chinese to save my life, k?).

Anyway, cutting to the chase, the manga 'Sekolah Detektif Q' has been made into a drama here in Japan.
Well, most of the main actors in this drama are still 'kids' so it came as no surprise that I watched this drama with zero expectations. I mean, since they are all amateurs, one has to forgive them for their lack of acting skills, right? However, apparently, this is not true in this drama' case. I would give them 3.5 stars out of 5. So, not bad huh, for a bunch of newcomers...

Here's a really brief summary of the drama:

Adapted from the manga by Tadashi Agi(Seimaru Amagi), Tantei Gakuen Q revolves around a team of genius students studying in a detective academy run by a famous detective, Morihiko Dan.

And the correlation chart:

P/S: I hope all these drama (what's the word for this...) details make up for my lack of posts last week. There are of course more dramas being aired this summer. For instance, 'Life', a drama that centers around the life of a girl bullied by her schoolmates, which I think was quite cool. And also 'Yama Onna, Kabe Onna' and 'Ushi ni Negai wo', which aren't my cup of tea, so no mentions here.
