Aside from Shoshimin and Apothecary, this is the next most worthy mystery series this season, and you've no idea how pleased I am to get multiple mystery shows concurrently to choose from!

Scenarios are played out pretty well as of the first two cases, and the idiot detective with the legacy car brand backing him is only slightly less competent than the main lead who is also essentially powerless to solve these mysteries until her sharp-tongued butler has to check if she needs a helmet to go with his deductions. Cases don't overstay their welcome, evidence/clues are clearly in view for the observant, and the inferences made aren't absolutely daffy. I can't really ask for more.
