Ikuta Toma will get his chance as lead actor in a drama this spring with the drama Majo Saiban. The drama is about the new jury system that will be implemented in Japan later this year. Japan did have a jury system until 1943 but it was replaced by a judge only system.
I have the feeling that this might play out a bit like Change, Kimura Takuya's drama that was about Japan's political system, did. In that it's as much a drama as well as a way to introduce the general populace to information about their government that they may not have otherwise looked into learning much about.
I'm a bit curious about this drama but it'll just depend on how much time I have whether or not I'll try it out.
