    Truly Evil

    I've watched this whole show today, which isn't something I expected, but it had me hooked the entire time.

    The plot is simple. A woman is reunited with her best friend from school, someone she's not spoken to in a decade. And it seems that she's in need of help, having just gotten divorced, and having nowhere to go.

    What follows is a masterclass of manipulation that Friedrich Dürrenmatt would be proud of, as Himeno bends everyone around her to her will, with no-one safe from her games.

    Yamaya Kasumi is great as always, having come a long way from her days of fighting Youkai as Momoninger. She always seems to be acting, and I'm happy for her, since she clearly deserves it.

    The rest of the cast are also good, but it's absolutely Kasumi in the title role that steals the show.
