Will try not to make this recap too long, sure if you view all the screenshots between this and the next post you'll be able to follow what happened fairly easily. For the most part the show is the same as season one except some of the cast has changed as when Tsukiko(Masami) has returned to the police department her old unit has been disbanded but a new one made especially for called the UIU has been formed.
At the end of season 1 Tsukiko had joined the FBI and was working in NYC, over in America she became quite a hero as she stopped a major terrorist attack, looks she did it single handily. Wasn't explained but shortly after that she returned to Japan and is back with most of her old partners, she's still searching for an urban legend that committed a crime.
Tsukiko's first case involved an urban legend called "Mossy" who rumor had it lived in one of the lakes around Mt. Fuji and was supposed to be a creature like the Loch Ness Monster. A professor who for 25 years had done much searching for Mossy and was supposed to release his findings to the public was found murdered near one of Mt. Fuji's lakes, there were many suspects but of course only someone like Tsukiko could get to the bottom of it. And of course Tsukiko did but once again to her disappointment the murderer was just a person and no urban legend was involved in the crime, will she ever find a crime done by one of those legends?
Kept this recap brief as I've just done 13 posts and my mind's getting a bit watery but needed to do this before I forgot what happened. Think it'll be a continuation of season one as far as the kind of cases that Tsukiko solves, that's fine with me as this was one of my top dramas from 2012. Ratings started off a bit a bit lower, season one averaged a 9.7% and this started off with a 8.4% but as long as the show remains interesting would think the ratings would start going up. Check out the next post as there's 35 more screenshots from this episode, hard not to take so many pics of Masami as she looks mighty terrific as usual.
