Description:

"Ishiko to Haneo: Sonna Koto de Uttaemasu?" introduces Ishiko, a brilliant 28-year-old Tokyo University law graduate haunted by four bar exam failures, now a paralegal at her father's firm. Despite her intellect, fear and an inferiority complex convince her she "ought not" become a lawyer. Her life changes with Haneo, a 34-year-old high school graduate who passed the bar on his first try, thanks to a photographic memory. Haneo projects himself as an unconventional, talented lawyer, yet hides his own inferiority complex, freezing when unexpected situations arise. When Haneo joins the firm, these two individuals, both burdened by insecurities and contrasting talents, are reluctantly thrown together. This engaging legal drama explores their struggles, forcing them to confront fears and discover strength through their challenging partnership.
