| This show is like that Kyoto Teramachi Holmes, that is as every bit as mixed in investment, but it can turn out to be as quirky as said show. The comprehended friendship of lead boy Nakata Seigi and jeweler appraiser Richard, over a pink sapphire ring that itself has been both a blessing and curse to people whom have held it towards them. Shuka's soft visuals since Natsume Yuujinchou are still as splendid as usual. Kinda liked the first episode, but it was decent at best. Still, intrigues me further to see more. |

A whole lotta pearl clutching in this thread for nothing.. |

| Well...I just fell in love with Richard (He has Arthur's voice so..), looking forward for his doujins c: |
| I quite enjoyed this so far. The story around the ring wasn't something I expected to see, I wonder where this can go from now on. As for the BL aspects, I'm pretty sure there won't be anything beyond friendship and maybe a little tease for those who'd like it to be more than that. And there's already a girl appeared voiced by HanaKana, do you seriously expect her not to be a love interest at some point? |

| It was a nice start. It's a relaxing anime which doesn't have that complex of a plot but is interesting and not that boring, perfect anime to watch while chilling and eating snacks. |
| that was just boring |
 |
| good first episode..but don't know will I continue or not |
 |
 This is like the japanese equivalent of reaching first base.. |
| What a boring, humdrum, run of the mill twenty minutes of absolute nothing. You see, dude's grandma has a ring that she feels guilty about, so he shows it to a guy who takes him to the woman who it was stolen from and tells him that the tragedy that happened to her actually had nothing at all to do with the ring. Not just that, but everything actually turned out fine. The end. To review: "She tried to kill herself, but lived happily ever after." I'm barely even summarizing! Dude breaks down in tears of gratitude for relieving this burden… on someone else! By looking up a goddamned address. It's hard to think of ways that this could not be more banal. Or cliche for that matter with saving him from a random pack of dudes out recruiting for Fight Club or something. I went back and checked that scene because for the life of me, I couldn't remember if there was ever a reason given for why they were attacking a random dude on the street, and nope. Or padded with goddamned nothing too while we're at it. After breaking down into tears at what was probably supposed to be the emotional moment of the episode, there were still five minutes left where they just kind of sat around and had tea. If this is meant to be a human interest drama, you should start by having some goddamned interesting humans, not these pointy-chinned bores. |
| looks like this'll have some sap to it. Looking forward to more of that! |
 |
| Liked this one a lot. I'm usually bored to death when it comes to these detective or Sherlock-esque anime, but I was fully invested in the story of the two older women. I hope the stories remain interesting. |
Lol, true though. I really want to read the light novels this show is based on, but they’re not available in English and nobody is fan translating them either. Maybe if the anime does well, but I won’t get my hopes up. Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

| The theme of this anime imo may be episodic. Still, I was amused that the old lady didn't accepted the ring back and not having any resentment to Seigi's grandmother. I knew that Seigi's being bullied in his childhood days. With that name? It would be impossible not to. |
 |
| I thought this might be just another yaoi but i'm glad that i was wrong! the a bit seriousness of this show is a but comfy, lets see where this takes us... 4/5. good to hear Nagi Yanagi performed again! |
 |
| Deffo interested to see how this goes. First ep was a bit boring, but it was just introducing characters and such so hoping it will pick up speed in the next few eps. Can't wait for overload fujobait in future episodes - at least that's where it seems to be headed atm |
| Okay, so.. His name is spelled Richard, but they use the pronounciation of its italian form. The latter part of his surname is of french origin. His grandmother is from Sri Lanka, but he's so white you'd think he's lebensborn..  This show is giving me a headache.. |
| Not great but an interesting start, has potential to be really good! |
| Honestly, the premise is okay. I'm guessing it's going to be a mystery related to jewelry. I'm hoping future episodes will be better. To be honest, it was pretty obvious that the woman didn't commit suicide over a ring and that she had deeper issues. At least, Richard is pretty good looking and nice to look at. Seigi is meh. |
| 臭い- |
| Interesting first episode, waiting for more. |
   |
| I liked it the first episode, it was interesting. I'm looking forward for more. Wish it was gayer tho. |
| Finally a mystery anime this season that isn't a mindfuck and full of supernatural elements! This is exactly as chill as Kyoto Holmes which I enjoyed a lot. OP/ED are both great. This seems like a Josei demographic show which is all I've wanted. I am looking forward to more. |
| Aw, that was a cute little story. Served as a pretty good intro to Seigi's personality and backstory, while just hinting at Richard's. Not much going on visually though. Unless the story and characters are really good in the coming episodes, I'm not sure I'd be invested enough to keep up every week. I think the most movement in animation during this entire episode was when Richard unbuttoned his blazer, swept it back with a flourish, and then sat down. Regal. Graceful. Stylish. I felt that. |
| felt more like a sol than a mystery to be honest. the mc has some personality and isn't just a dull hyper-man, i like that 4/5 |
| Was looking forward to this after seeing the character designs by Utako Yukihiro-sensei! Richard is peak eye candy material (but also resembles Kazuna a little, haha) Where can I have a Richard in my life to help me find a job that fast... The gay panic I see for this series in general (not just this thread), lmao. I swear, any time an anime has more than one bishounen people always go "iS tHiS a YaOi???!!1!1!" How come no one ever goes "Is this a Yuri?" when it's the reverse case? yvanedisco said: Feels good to hear Yanagi Nagi's voice again. <3 Is that who it is! I loved both the OP and ED but I didn't know she was going to be involved in this series too!! yanaginagi <3 |

| It can't be gay because he blushed at a girl! Ahh gotta love when homophobes panic. I like how it was like fate they met and am interested to see where it goes. |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| First episode was okay. I really like the atmosphere and character design. The story was also wholesome. |

I was hoping I wasn't the only one who thought this and someone would remark on it! I just finished the first ep, and despite wanting to give it a go Richard being super caucasian as heck irks me given his name and his grandmother's homeland hrrggg... |
| I feel like this is a show good for watching once a week, it has promise and potential if it uses its cards right. For binge watching or any other situation other than seasonal watching I feel like it would be very boring. But that is only my first impression. We'll se how it develops. |
| Quite the concept we got for this series, mysteries about jewelry First episode was pretty enjoyable, I can already feel the start of a good bromance here |
 |
| After Bartender came out a few years back, I found myself needing another cool, chill, seinen show for guys well past their early 20's. And heres one that is about precious stones; and since I have liked minerals and silver and other metals since I was in preschool, this seems like it will be a very interesting journey of sorts. I AM READY! ^~^ |
| I like the sol elements here and watch me get yaoi baited for this lmao |
