I am surprised other commenters are down on the show. I loved it. I think this is the way you do a live action adaptation correctly. It kept the spirit of the original, embraced it's camp instead of trying to be realistic, and the cast was all pretty fun. It didn't hit the Manga exactly but it did what it needed to do to work in live action, and I honestly like it better in some places. (I also like the manga better in other places, haven't watched the anime yet. Waaaaay too long.). Watching this show was what encouraged me to get started on the manga, though.

I'm with you on this. I felt its the best live action out there and by a huge margin.

I'm still scarred from the Death Note adaptation...
