The Tokyo Zodiac Murders - Pembunuhan Zodiak Tokyo by Sōji Shimada

2.0

..why 2 stars only?

Maybe because I lil' bit felt it's nothing more than another Sherlock Holmes/Meitantei Conan.
Maybe because towards the end of the story there's this strong need to scream out loud:
"what bloody Zodiac Murders is this?!.."

Maybe because I was expecting 'more than' mad mutilating murderer story..
Maybe because the translation still pissed me off..

I mean, seriously?? bunga ceri for sakura? kue dadar for okonomiyaki? and kue bola berisi daging gurita for takoyaki??

You can clearly see that it did used the English translation instead of the original Japanese version.

I don't know why I really try to like it.
But I can't. I couldn't.

It's boring, unimpressive, ....boring.
