"Drops of God" is one of those rare series that rapturously scratches the itch of the most discerning viewer. It succeeds in enthralling, whilst simultaneously ensuring deep, addictive satisfaction (for its viewers). From the very first episode, "Foundation", the viewer is transported into cinematic excellence where the scenes are sharply focused, the dialogue pivots on a knife's edge, and the story is intense and fragrant. All of the characters are well fleshed-out, but great respect and appreciation must be bestowed upon the two main protagonists; Fleur Geffrier as "Camille Leger" and Tomohisa Yamashita as "Issei Tomine". Both of these actors do something that is incredibly rare in a series: they command "the everything, and the everyone", and create an atmosphere of relatability in this ultra niché nouvelle-aquitaine and Provençal Tokyo world. With 4 episodes down, and 4 remaining, it is evident that it is series like this that are the exceptionally priceless embodiment of perfect pacing, concise direction, A-level acting, and thoroughly brilliant story-telling. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Note: since this series is mainly in French and Japanese make sure to only watch with the HC subbed English links...unless of course you are fluent in French and Japanese!
