So, this one, 'Detective Mitarai's Casebook: The Clockwork Current,' is quite a ride. It delves into the murky waters of mystery with a unique twist. You have Kiyoshi Mitarai, who feels like a classic private eye, paired with Miyuki Ogawa, and they head to Fukuyama, right? The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, as they uncover the mystery behind those bodies in the Seto Inland Sea. The pacing is deliberate, allowing tension to build naturally. I found the themes of time and fate really intriguing, especially with the currents repeating every six hours—it’s like the clock is ticking down. The performances are solid, capturing the emotional weight of the investigation without overdoing it. It's that blend of drama and mystery that keeps you engaged, even if the direction isn’t from a well-known name.
