4th Gen sure is the best thing happened in the Kindaichi saga.

Considering it had been 7 years since the last time Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo (either SP Drama or drama series) aired in NTV, this is (maybe) the best way to end Kindaichi saga. I said 'saga' other than franchise because hell yeah this one had been bugging NTV since 1996 and it had seen many changes either in many types of presentation. OVA, anime series, live action movie, live action drama series, live action drama special, just name it. Also, it had shown its growth through 4 generations of Kindaichi Hajime (and Nanase Miyuki IMO) which consists of a great chemistry between lucky Johnny's idols and some currently on demand actresses.

People that grew up with Kindaichi saga since 1996 might know that 1st gen of Kindaichi Hajime and Nanase Miyuki live action version had been portrayed by Kinki Kids's Domoto Tsuyoshi and Tomosaka Rie, followed by 2nd gen consisting of the combination of Arashi's Matsumoto Jun and Suzuki Anne way back in 2001. As 2005 appears, Kindaichi saga got his 3rd gen Kindaichi and Miyuki in the form of KAT-TUN's Kamenashi Kazuya and Ueno Juri, in which my favourite Miyuki so far just because she is cute, LOL . After that Kindaichi saga was put up to rest until they don't know how long. At least for the fans. 

What the fans don't know that since 2007 the Kindaichi team (be it the mangaka, the scriptwriter, the screenwriter) had been eyeing Yamada Ryosuke as their next Kindaichi Hajime but they have to wait until 5 years for Yamada to be old and sexy and hot and asdfghjkl but still short (kidding) enough to be 4th gen Kindaichi Hajime. Knowing how insecure Yamada fangirls is, the team sure had a little bit hard time to find the suitable actress to fit the 4th gen of Nanase Miyuki. But yeah, to hell with that and they are ready to announce the official 4th gen of Kindaichi Hajime and Nanase Miyuki is none other than Hey! Say! JUMP's Yamada Ryosuke and Kawaguchi Haruna.

Who wouldn't have thought that the tandem continues for two specials and one drama series. That equals as two years. Two years are enough for both Yamada and Haruna to build an unforgettable chemistry any Hajime x Miyuki shippers could dream of since 1996. Really, some of us ship them IRL. Because, face it! They are so cute together! Awwww~

In honor of the Hajime x Miyuki tandem, also the new tandem I called YamaHaru (and apparently almost all Yamada x Haruna shipper approved the namesquish *smiles proudly*) I had handpicked some songs to fit their background story and their personalities inside and outside Kindaichi Neo drama set. Because, again. Face it! They are so asdfghjkl cute together inside and outside the set and I wont complain if they end up really dating IRL *runs away* .

1. G-Dragon: Crooked




I know that this is a 'post-breakup' song, but who cares about the lyrics when the music is way cheerful and showing the happiness and excitement of having a new life. I was looking for a song that suit the first romance encounter this 4th Gen Hajime x Miyuki had done in Kindaichi saga, to be specific; Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo: Gokumon Juku Satsujin Jiken drama special that aired in 4th January 2014. The fact that they have their first romance scenes as a 4th Gen Kindaichi and Miyuki in Malaysia just made Malaysian Tobikkos especially Kindaichi fans proud yo.  

2. Siti Nurhaliza : Jaga Dia Untukku






I wished this song would release in English version because damn. This song tells the prayers and hopes for the loved ones to be safe wherever they are, what are they doing and more. It suits Hajime x Miyuki well because we know Hajime had been doing his best in solving crimes that sometimes in order for him to look for the truth, he had almost got himself hurt and in a dangerous situation.

3. Pitbull feat. Shakira: Get It Started




Let me just make the reason why this song is chosen, simple. Takato a.k.a Narimiya Hiroki finally made his appearance in eps 5 onwards and ofc what could this evil mastermind can do other than making Hajime's life hard, LOL. And what's better to threat Hajime other than using Miyuki as a bait, deshou? Cliche, but in 4th gen case, na-ah.


4. T-ara: Don't Leave





Damn, I fell for this song in an instant. Surprisingly this song is coupling with 'Day by Day' from T-ara which I made into my own 'Sprout soundtrack list' two years ago. This song tells the story of a girl to beg her partner to not leave her for she love him so much. In every episode, we can see how obvious that Miyuki had feelings for Hajime and vice versa (and a biased opinion: YamaHaru did that super well asdfghjkl thanks to two drama specials *runs*)

5. Shakira: Dare




And nope, not the World Cup version. It's the original version. Listen to the lyrics and you'll know the difference. Why is this song in the list? Did I told you I ship YamaHaru IRL? Add a little bit glamour stars, idols and voila.


6. Enrique Iglesias: Finally Found You




This song (I know the music video is so 18+) is chosen because of the lyrics. As the episode progressed for this drama, the love feeling between Hajime and Miyuki is getting obvious. It was way obvious when in episode 7. Go watch that episode and be dazzled and connect it to the lyrics in this song. On the side note, I think both actors are doing the romance part better in each episode. A little bit biased opinion don't you think? I don't know the other generations but I trust MatsuJun and his partner to do the romance as better as YamaHaru too.


With that, I conclude my fanmade OST for Kindaichi Neo. If you guys are interested on my review on the whole drama, wait for it. For now~ let the GIF talk. 





And a FMV, if you may. My all time favourite Hajime x Miyuki a.k.a YamaHaru FMV ever. (and believe me, this FMV came out like three days after final episode of Kindaichi Neo aired.)




all videos and GIF, I give credit to the owners. I own nothing other than my biased opinions.
