To be honest, watching this series was such a unique experience, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The MCs solve various crimes at the beginning of the show to help acclimate viewers before introducing the major plotline later on. Daisuke and the overall idea of Balance Unlimited appeal immediately. His self-satisfied smirk, which makes it difficult to dislike him, never gets old to me when he throws money around to fix his issues.
In actuality, one of my top three favorite male characters right now is Daisuke. This series features some really amazing characters. But Kato and Daisuke are unquestionably the show's high point.
