Mr. Brain

Mr Brain is the latest Japanese TV drama starring Kimura Takuya 木村拓哉 (きむら　たくや).

The story is about a scientist at the Institute of Police Science using his knowledge in human brain to help the police to solve difficult cases. The idea is very similar to another Japanese TV drama Detective Galileo, starring Masaharu Fukuyama.

I like this TV drama because the story is interesting, tells you some knowledge of the human brain, how it works, how people think. What is shown on TV may not be 100% facts, but then at least it arises people's interests in science & knowledge.

In my opinion, those TV dramas are much more effective in attracting talents into the field of science and technology than all those boring teachings in school.

Ok, back to the drama. Some critics say the story is illogical. Well, which TV drama is completely logical? The story is good, the actings are not bad too. An enjoyable TV drama series. Looking forward to the coming episodes.
