I do not know how Siesta died, nor do I have any predictions for how someone of her caliber bit the dust, but I would not be surprised if this turned into a revenge story to find Siesta’s killer if one even exists. Romance aside, Siesta was indeed a legendary detective, and with Kimi as the “trouble-magnet” by her side, the two were an unstoppable duo. In the end, all of this was for the sake of a strong premise, as now we really want to see how “Kimi” will move past this, and I for one am excited to see the girl who strikes an “uncanny resemblance” to the late Siesta, as per the synopsis. I can tell that the rest of the series will have a slightly different tone to this first episode, as the entire purpose of this opener was undoubtedly to emotionally invest us into the character of Siesta and the bond she shared with the main, I mean they even posed in wedding gowns for goodness sake! There were some obvious hints at romance between the two, and their comfort in each other’s company grew at a rapid pace, and we got to see them work on cases together, share laughs and even embark on date-like experiences. If you are someone that read the synopsis before watching, you would’ve expected this, but yet I underestimated just how impactful Siesta’s untimely death would be. The extra-long duration was used to its maximum potential as the producers wasted no time getting us onboard the Kimizuka Kimihiko ( Arata Nagai) x Siesta ( Saki Miyashita) ship, only to throw it all down the drain by the end of the episode. “Attention Passengers: Is there a Detective on Board?”Ī very interesting premise has been established here, and this 45-minute feature-long opening episode created strong feelings of attachment and intimacy, but in all the wrong ways.
