ATARU 아타루   自閉天才ATARU

Inquiry

Print

Autistic savant, Ataru, has a very unique gift. He is capable of uttering “words” that help the police in their investigations “discover, observe, perceive and deduce” evidence they had hitherto failed to notice. In fact, like a chess genius, Ataru has the ability to think tens of moves ahead of the average person. While it’s obvious to anyone that his favorite foods are tomato ketchup and honey mustard, Ataru struggles with communication, often speaking in conundrums, behaving erratically and even lapsing into hysteric fits. While his uniquely-wired brain enables him to fire off “key words” that are integrally linked to solving crime, the task of piecing his utterances together like a jigsaw puzzle falls to Detective Maiko Ebina and superior officer, Sawa. Together, they create an unlikely and dynamic trio solving one case after another.
토마토 케첩과 허니 마스타드를 좋아하는 서번트증후군인 주인공 아타루. 그는 경찰도 눈치채지 못 한 범죄사건의 사소한 증거를 발견, 관찰, 추리하여 사건해결로 연결되는 단어를 내뱉으면서 사건 을 풀어낸다. 아타루는 언제나 타인의 사고보다 몇배나 앞서 생각하지만, 커뮤니케이션 능력에 문 제가 있어 그가 말하는 단어는 난해하고 이해하기 어려운 행동을 하기도 한다. 가끔씩 패닉증상을 보인다. 아타루는 특이한 두뇌로 다양한 사건의 범인과 사고의 원인으로 연결되는 키워드를 불규칙 적으로 말한다. 그가 내뱉는 퍼즐 조각을 맞춰가는 것이 형사 에비나 마이코의 역할이다. 아타루, 마이코, 마이코의 상사 사와, 세사람은 기묘하게 엮이며 한팀이 되어 매번 사건에 맞서지만….

85 min × 2 eps / 75 min × 2 eps / 60 min × 6 eps|10 episodes

Hiroto Miyama is an unconventional young lawyer who dances to his own tune and gets a little obsessive. For one thing, he’s only interested in criminal cases, and he will never give up in his pursuit of the truth even if offers only a 0.1% chance of being discovered. Japan’s 99.9% criminal case conviction rate leads the world, attesting to a “highly reliable” judicial system.
In other words, once a crime suspect is indicted, prosecutor arguments tend to be accepted hook, line and sinker. In the face of those 99.9% odds, there’s no money in being a defense lawyer specializing in criminal cases, but for Miyama, that’s where the interest and kernels of truth lie. From unexpected places, the mold-breaking Miyama stakes his reputation on a prayer of a chance as he clashes with hotshot lawyers who’ll go to any lengths to win in this gloriously fun, legal mystery.
