ここまでやると面白い!:深田恭子さん主演のドラマ「ルパンの娘」 This Drama Is So Funny Because It Goes to Such Extremes: The TV drama “Lupin no Musume” featuring Kyoko Fukada

 深キョンドラマが大好きです。勝手にそう呼んでいるだけですが、その特徴の1つは、馬鹿馬鹿しいほどあり得ない設定です。もう一つは、深田恭子さんならではの、純真無垢なのにコケティッシュという魅力が、滑稽なまでに強調されることです。「富豪刑事」(テレビ朝日)、「専業主婦探偵〜私はシャドウ」(TBS)など、テレビ局は違うのに、同じ味わいがありました。そうした意味では、今季の「ルパンの娘」(フジテレビ)も、間違いなく深キョンドラマです。

 I love Fukakyon dramas. Fukakyon is the nickname of Kyoko Fukada, and I just personally call the dramas featuring her “Fukakyon dramas”. There is a few things characteristic about Fukakyon dramas. First, the settings are impossibly ridiculous. Next, her distinctive quality, innocent but somehow coquettish, tend to be emphasized to such an extent that it makes me smile. Both “Fugo Keiji”(TV Asahi) and “Sengyo Shufu Tantei – Watashi wa Shadow”(TBS) had the same atmosphere even though they were produced by different broadcast companies. In that point, the current drama called “Lupin no Musume” belongs to the same group.

 今回の設定もぶっ飛んでいます。深田恭子さん演じるのは三雲華という、表向きは図書館に勤める平凡な女性です。しかし、彼女の家は、「Lの一族」と呼ばれる、先祖代々、泥棒を生業とする一家でした。そんな彼女が心から愛している恋人、桜庭和馬は、あろうことか刑事であり、桜庭家は代々警察官という一族なのでした。「Lの一族」は強欲な金持ちが不当に手に入れた美術品だけを狙い、弱者には決して手を出さない、アルセーヌ・ルパンのような義賊です。また、その犯行の手口は、とんでもないハイテクを駆使した大胆極まりないものでした。

 This time the settings are extremely ridiculous, too. Kyoko Fukada plays Hana Mikumo, who is outwardly an ordinary woman working as a librarian. However, she was born in the family called “L’s kin”, whose members have been thieves for generations. Kazuma Sakuraba, her dear boyfriend, is a detective of all things, and the family members of his house have been police officers for generations. “L’s kin” always aims at art works that are possessed by greedy rich people who illegally obtained them, but never thieves from weak, poor people and that's why they are called “L’s kin”, L stands for Arsène Lupin. Their method is something extremely high-tech and daring.

 あり得ない設定も、ここまで突き抜けると痛快です。もう全部が可笑しくなってきて、いちいちクスクス笑ってしまいます。木曜日の夜10時が待ち遠しいこの頃です。

 The settings, which are even impossible, could be exhilarating when it goes to such extremes. I giggle all the time while watching this drama because I somehow find everything in it look funny. I’m now really looking forward 10 p.m. on every Thursday night.
