Reviews

Suits received mixed reviews from critics and viewers alike. According to IMDb, it holds a rating of 4.7 out of 10, indicating a generally lukewarm reception. Some critics appreciated the localization effort and the performances, particularly Yuji Oda’s charismatic portrayal of the lead lawyer, praising the show's slick production values and its stylish presentation of legal battles. However, many reviewers felt that it lacked the depth and sharpness of its American predecessor. Critics from sites like AsianWiki noted that while the show was entertaining, it sometimes relied heavily on clichéd plot devices and predictable story arcs. On Metacritic, the show does not have a widely reported score, reflecting a limited presence in Western review aggregators. Fans of the original American Suits series were divided; some enjoyed the fresh cultural twist, while others considered the adaptation less engaging. Overall, the series offers enjoyable moments for legal drama enthusiasts but may not satisfy viewers expecting a groundbreaking or deeply nuanced narrative.
