The eighth episode of the popular TBS Sunday drama "Reboot," starring Ryohei Suzuki, aired on March 15th (Sundays at 9 PM). On social media, several opinions have been raised regarding the identity of the spy within the police force working behind Goroku (Yukiya Kitamura).
◇The following contains spoilers.
Three years ago, Natsumi (Sayaka Yamaguchi) was rebooted as Ichika (Erika Toda) on the orders of Goroku (Yukiya Kitamura). The "real" Ichika was shot dead.
Later, Ichika (Toda), in the rebooted version, is told by Goroku that her body was discovered due to unexpected construction work.
Furthermore, Goroku casually added, "Oh, but don't worry. We'll use a spy within the police force to make it look like it's Natsumi's body." To Natsumi's bewildered question, "How will you do that?", Goroku explained, "We'll have Natsumi's belongings found near the scene. Then, we'll swap the dental records and other items recovered from your home with those of Ichika."
The characters from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department that appear in the drama include Inspector Makita (Hideaki Ito), Gido's superior Mikami (Tetsuya Ikeda), Gido's subordinates Adachi (Aju Makita) and Teramoto (Daisuke Nakagawa), Makita's subordinate Yorii (Haru Fujita), and Hijikata (Reika Aiki) from the Second Investigation Division.
On social media, people were excited, saying things like, "Could Chief Mikami of the First Investigation Division be a spy for Goroku?", "Chief Mikami is too suspicious, so I don't think it's him. Adachi acts based on justice, so I don't think it's him either. I think Teramoto or Yorii are suspicious!", "Within the police force, Adachi is a strong possibility, but I think it's Mikami," "For some reason, I feel like Goroku and Makita are being rebooted," and "Judging from the relationship chart, Adachi is the next most suspicious spy for Goroku after Mikami. Isn't the photo size a bit big?"
