Plot
Kuryu isn't your typical prosecutor. He was a bad apple in junior high school but eventually passed a high school equivalency test and later the bar exam. However, what really separates him from his ilk is his funky fashion sense and long brown hair.
Kuryu has been transferred to Nijigaura, a small town in Yamaguchi Prefecture that hasn't seen a major crime in 11 years. However, right after he arrives a murder is committed, and the main suspect is a respected local businessman. Everyone in town thinks he's innocent except Kuryu, whose unorthodox investigation methods perplex not only the townspeople, but his colleagues as well.
