    Too much fighting but still entertaining

    This series is about a married pair of lawyers. Both are very attractive people but seemingly their marriage is a mismatch.

    They are constantly bickering, and creating scenarios sure to displease their partner. Not only are they partners in marriage but they are also partners in a law firm.

    While their struggles do become wearisome, you can always look forward to Koyuki's next wardrobe change.

    I've liked her ever since The Last Samurai. If you've not seen her in anything since then, please try this TV Series to see her in a contemporary setting.

    I won't tell you how it turns out but I will suggest that you will find this series very entertaining. There's an excellent supporting cast and a few sides stories to offer a respite. Recommended.
