| Kimura Takuya and Shibasaki Kou in "Ando Lloyd" |
As readers of this blog know well, when it comes to dramas, I really love the ones that are more off the beaten path, the less I can predict of the story’s outcome while watching it the better, and MAN, they don’t come more unusual and UNpredictable than the latest Kimura Takuya/Shibasaki Kou drama ANDO LLOYD! Part Science Fiction, Part Romance and ALL-OUT robot-slamming ACTION, this was ONE show that had me on my toes guessing the entire episode! |

ANDO LLOYD tells the tale of a genius scientist named Matsushima Reiji (Kimura) who has come upon the knowledge that he (and a lot of other Physicists, as well) will be systematically killed by agents who seemingly come from the far-flung future. With the most important agenda of protecting his beloved fiancé Ando Nanase (Shibasaki Kou), he uses his smarts (and vast knowledge of wormholes and time relevance) to create an elaborate back-up plan to keep her safe in the event of his demise- and what a plan it is! |

Strange times are afoot as super-powered (and time bending) androids roam the streets set on eliminating the scientists on their “hit” list, and as Reiji tries to keep one step ahead of them, a savvy Police Investigator by the name of (Kenichi Endo) is on the case. He seems to know quite a bit about the goings-on, but what does he really know, and who are the shadowy superiors he reports to REALLY working for?

Finally time runs out for poor Reiji, and it’s here we finally learn of his master “insurance” plan to protect his wife- a “5-D” terminator-type “Executive Defense” Android with the same super-powers as his futuristic foes, and once he’s on the scene they go head-to-head with some epic battling!! Only problem for Asahi is, this android (named, naturally, Ando Lloyd, get it? AN-DO-LO-ID) has the same body and features as her late husband, an emotional obstacle hard for the grieving woman to get around!Besides the Heroes and Villains of the piece, we also have a slew of interesting friends and colleagues with Kenta Kiritani, Oshima Yuko and Yamaguchi Sayaka as supporting cast… |

Additionally, we have a Beautiful, Mysterious Girl (played by Mirei Kiritani with giggling glee) who seems to be the sole character in the drama that knows exactly who is who and what is what…but who is SHE?! Also Honda Tsubasa in hilarious scene stealing appearances as Suppli, the “Repair Technician” Nurse who shows up to fix-up Lloyd whenever he’s damaged in combat or needs “updates” to his system… |

Well! I’d better get back to the show- So exciting right now- I have NO IDEA what’s gong to happen NEXT!
