Reinoryokusha Odagiri Kyoko no Uso: episode 3 synopsis and review


 Another so-so watch this time from the drama, bit better than episode two but the storyline really didn't go anywhere. Kyoko's show put out a challenge to it's viewers to send in some real ghost photos and the winner(s) would appear on a show with her, many photos were sent in but none of the, appeared to be real and this storyline really didn't go any further. The real plot of this show ended up being the disappearance of a bride who was about to get married, could it have been ghosts as she seemed to simply vanish. Of course that wasn't the case, but if not abducted by ghosts what happened to her? The bride had originally enlisted the help of Kyoko and Taniguchi for what may have been a ghost case but in reality it's that she was being stalked by her ex boyfriend, she wouldn't admit it but Kyoko with her keen eye of deduction had already figured it out before she had met her. And the disappearance of the bride was easily explained as she was secretly hiding out with a fiend of hers which all came out when she appeared on Kyoko's TV show.


 Seems like a short review, is that way because even though it was a fun watch, this episode was funnier by far than the first two, really weak story this time around as them chasing ghosts could have made for an interesting show but never really went that route. Comparisons to the Trick series weren't as strong this time around, perhaps they need to get back on that track, as mentioned it was a fun watch and better than episode two but all in all was really just an average show. There's 9 episodes in all of this drama, I'm through 1/3 of it now with some mixed results to date, an enjoyable watch but seems as though it should be a bit better, there's still time to get more interesting and really hoping that'll be the case. Next two posts are of screenshots from this show with Satomi and Yuko, you can probably follow this weak story a bit better with all the pics.
