3. Sakaguchi Kenji – For his surfing skill.
4. Kimura Takuya - Also for his surfing skill.

Synopsis:
Hero tells of the story of Kuryu Kohei (Kimura Takuya), a former high school delinquent who became a public prosecutor. This TV-shopping addict is transferred from Aomori to Tokyo, where he is coldly greeted by new colleagues who doubt his ability to perform his duties. The business suit-averse Kuryu may appear unprofessional at first glace, favoring jeans and shirts with cheesy slogans to dark coats and slacks. He also has a very unorthodox way of working, choosing to personally investigate his cases rather than relying solely on the police. He is given a zealous (but initially unwilling) law clerk Amamiya Maiko (Matsu Takako) as his personal assistant. By combining book smart (Amamiya) and street smart (Kuryu), they solve cases involving characters like corrupt parliament members and petty underwear thieves and eventually, Kuryu gains the respect and admiration of his superiors and colleagues. The ending theme is Can you keep a secret? by Utada Hikaru, who also makes a cameo appearance on Episode 8. She was that waitress at the restaurant where Kuryu and the female lawyer had dinner.
