Quick Synopsis:
Following the first series, there is now a new threat about to hit Tokyo. THIRD-i seeks Takagi Fujimaru once again to help locate the terrorist and stop a nuclear attack. However, things will not go so easy for him since the terrorist have attained their own genius hacker.


My Thoughts:
Story Line:
I am so glad this show is back. I was counting down as soon as I heard it was going to be aired in Japan. Then, went crazy seeking who would be the first fansub group to sub it. I am happy to see that they did not keep the same threat as the first series and moved onto a bomb threat this time. Although, it seems like a bomb is not that big of a threat when compared to an airborne virus.

Cast:
The cast is pretty much the same. I did like the new additions to the drama though. Kamiki Ryunosuke was a great addition to go against Miura Haruma.

Music:
Again the theme song was done by flumpool. Still not a big fan of their songs being chosen for an action drama.

Overall I would rate this drama with a 4/5.
