The Japanese drama - Yips - tells the story of a well-spoken and best-selling suspense novel writer who is unable to write novels due to a mental disorder, and an elite detective who has a high self-esteem who "cannot solve the case" due to psychological problems.The two protagonists, who both have this kind of mental disorder, work together to solve various cases. It is a suspense comedy.
The two people who would have been absolutely impossible to coordinate formed a complementary partner. In the light-paced dialogue, they used humor to force the prisoner into a desperate situation.This completely original work will tell the story with a flashback structure reminiscent of Furuhata Rensaburo. Each episode will have luxurious guest actors from the cast appearing, incarnating as various criminals, presenting a wonderful crime story..
The protagonists of the work are the suspense novelist Kuroba Kamiko (Ryoko Shinohara), and Toru Morino (Idiot Rhythm) of the Investigation Section 1 of the Criminal Division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.Shenzi has published many best-selling works since his debut and is a popular writer. However, he is currently unable to write.Despite this, she is quite happy as a commentator on the show.On the other hand, Morino's original high crime detection rate plummeted due to a certain incident, and he could no longer solve the case.Both of them suffered from “Yips” that were unable to use their original abilities due to stress.
The two completely uncoordinated people met by chance in a sauna. They originally came to escape work, but they were accidentally involved in a murder case, thus forming a pair.Shenzi showed great interest in the incident, thinking that it might be used as material for a novel, and said that this was the first time she had seen a real corpse.On the contrary, although Morino showed no interest in the investigation, he still showed keen insight as a detective and worked closely with Shenzi to get closer to the truth.During the investigation of the two men, they gradually grasped clues about the prisoner. Just when they tried to question the suspect, Morino's “Yips” suddenly broke out...
This suspenseful work with a strong comedy color also incorporates light-hearted and humorous dialogue and a unique world view.The person responsible for directing this work is Masaya Kake, who has directed the great Selection Taxi written by Idiot Rhythm.
The character played by Ryoko Shinohara is Kamiko, a suspense novelist.Although she was at the peak of her career and her three consecutive works became best-sellers, she has not had a new work for five years now because she can't find inspiration.During this bottleneck period, she had to give full play to her eloquence and insight, serving as a commentator on online programs and occasionally writing columns.At this time, her last work 5 years ago was criticized on the Internet for being too old-fashioned, and her comments as a commentator were criticized for all kinds of criticism, which made her even more troubled.While she was escaping from writing, he met Morino by chance.
Idiot Rhythm will play the role of Toru Morino, a detective from the Investigation Section 1 of the Criminal Division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department who is unable to investigate due to “Yips”.He was once a highly respected elite detective in the organization, but later became unable to solve the case due to an incident.In fact, he had been a huge fan of Shenzi's work.However, because Shenzi has only been focusing on review work recently, and the new work has not been completed well, he has become a black fan, posting disgusting comments about Shenzi online all day long.
PS: “Yips” refers to a psychological symptom in which things that were once possible are now impossible to achieve due to inner conflicts that affect muscles, nerve cells, and brain cells.
