The human suspense story follows a lawyer named Makoto Narita who is wanted for crimes he did not commit. Narita now helps people in trouble, even as he searches for the person who committed the crimes for which he was framed.

Let's substitute "doctor" for "lawyer" and "Richard Kimble" for "Makoto Narita"... you get the idea. Unless there's other stuff going on here, ala Monster, this is The Fugitive.

Ha, me too. Very Happy

I wonder if this will be any good, though. The manga's artwork looks nice. But that won't save a live-action series if it feels like a copy of a pre-existing work.

That's cool. But when does the manga start again Sad it was supposed to start again in Big Comic Spirits when Young Sunday finished but nothing has been published yet...

I own all 6 volumes, and I do not recall it have an ending of any kind.

Kamiji Yusuke has been a lead actor in multiple television dramas. If you look him up on Dramawiki, you would see that he's been in a lot of TV dramas.
