Watching Mother, 3 episodes left. It's good, high production value., good pacing. Tsugumi a cute. Not sure if I like the drama part too much, I think I would've liked it more if the thing about leaving her real mother behind was resolved in the first few episodes and the plot focused on her growing up.

Also I noticed I tend to like new age dramas more than the ones that came out like 10+ years ago.

Turns out it's harder for me to immerse myself in something that is 240p and has cheap production value. Story wise they probably hold up, but atmosphere is very important to me.

240p? your own fault for watching streams and not dling dvd rips.

as for production value, that only matters for things like tokusatsu. wtf does it matter for rom coms

It's like complaining that Babylon 5 is shit compared to Battlestar Galactica. You're kind of missing the point.

Can you guys recommend something like Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou? I watched it early this year but it's still on my head, never found anything like it.

Doesn't need to be a mystery, I'm just looking for something that has this "comfy" feel. Even better if it's a series instead of a movie, but both are fine.

>Satomi Shinobu and Inokuma Yuki work as detectives in the Mobile Investigation Unit of The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. The two are assigned as partners on the job and consider each other as rivals. However, once off the job, they are a couple but they keep their relationship a top secret. One day, Shinobu and Yuki were at the site where a dead body was found. There, they encounter a mysterious beautiful woman named Tachibana Kara. Soon, a series of bizarre crimes involving gruesome murders begin to occur; and strangely, Kara always appears at these crime scenes. Together, Shinobu and Yuki attempt to find the truth behind the serial murder cases and uncover Tachibana Kara's identity
