One of the minefields with anime mysteries is that the mysteries are often the weakest part of the series. How they balance the mystery and the character-driven material (assuming it’s better) determines whether the show sinks or swims.
I’m in the same boat as Sensei here - I thought this mystery was pretty lame. But I like the vibe between Kiyotaka and Aoi, and the antiques side has potential, so I’ll stick around for now.
