Tomoya Nagase of TOKIO plays a convicted swindler, hired along with 13 other convicted criminals, by the Japanese government to be an elite spy against terrorists. This is Nagase's first leading role in 3 years in an NTV Saturdays @ 9pm drama since My Boss, My Hero.
The two translators in our team had considered picking up this drama to sub for a while since it was announced but didn't know where we were gonna be at around the Summer Season. But then we just caved in. The team had either this or Orthros no Inu to work from -- and we all decided that Karei naru Spy would be a better drama to work on instead. Also, after working on such an emotional dramatic series as The Quiz Show, we need a happy picker-upper.
Also, we noticed that the dramas we have picked up were NTV Saturdays @ 9pm (Yasuken, Quiz Show 2) dramas so for irony purposes we thought it was funny to tackle this too.
Now, like all of our drama announcements, they are not set in stone. They are merely tenative announcements. We will confirm our decision after the airing of episode 1. Also, we are aware of Querbeert working on this drama and wish them good luck on this drama as well as on Orthros no Inu and Otomen.
