Overall good acting on both the leads and the supporting roles. Perhaps lacking a little in writing and character development. A little simplistic for why the protagonist would be placed on the investigators' watch list, and why would the terrorist at such sophistication in organization and skills, be killing random people ? The homeland security agents seem to be lacking in sophistication in comparison.
Perhaps it's the old school good hero vs. Bad guy kind of story, still makes an entertaining medical thriller.

I've seen tons of Japan movies & dramas so when I 1st watch this drama (or dorama the weebs calling em) I was like "hurm, the camera & lighting is a bit like ultraman or kamen rider" & then there's also command centre room. Also like ultraman. At this time I was like "oh dem, is this another superhero vs monster series from Japan?"
Thank god it isn't!
When I read the title Tokyo MER (mobile emergency room) I was like..oh okay, so it's another medical series that probably center around ambulance or medical officer & after few minutes they just blew my mind away because the truck is as big&long as firetruck & they put operation room inside of it so you can operate on side not just have to transfer patient to hospital that'll take bout few minutes also have to go through all trafficjam etc.
The 1st episode i was quite annoyed because this MER guy clearly obstruct & endanger himself & more people by entering danger zone but as more episode all of em grew on me.
Not bad series from Japan. Also they don't use the overexpression like anime or wooden acting, the acting is great compared to other Japan movie/series.
This is a fiction story but if they make 2nd season or more they'll probably add tsunami or earthquake which is frequent at Japan & like somebody say the bad guy at the end is just dumb (the terrorist), maybe they need to add better bad guy if they want to attract more viewers to this series.
Maybe can make spinoff as not only Tokyo but other Japan city.
10/10 is too much but hey that's my personal rating & I love it that much because my expectation was very low at the start of 1st episode & I'm so glad I watch this series accidentally when I was bored & let my finger do the magic on Disney+
