Who Killed Daigorô Tokuyama?

I don't really know anything about Japanese Noh Plays but it seemed to me that this film was based on some of the rules of that style of very formal story telling.

I thought that it was very well done! The girls played out the detective story in a very curious fashion. For instance, they would all stand in silence as one of them declaimed their lines. Or, they all spoke at once as a chorus from a chatroom. The "detective" girl with the oddly impassive, beautiful, painted face seemed to also act as a narrator?

I liked the non-banal music and thought that the slowmo was very appropriate though it did tend to stretch out an already, perhaps, overlong series. I could have done without the 2 minute long intro on each episode. AND the preview of the next episode! Though, the summary of the previous episode was brief and useful.

Some bits were plain odd and I need someone to explain them to me. E.g. The sweat and the views of schoolgirls' legs. Echoes of "Walkabout"? Comic book style?

It reminded me , a little of "If"
