Synopsis
Kohei Kuryu, played by Kimura Takuya, is a former juvenile delinquent that drops out of junior high and goes on to earn a high school equivalency diploma. After passing the law board exams, Kuryu becomes a prosecutor. Not your typical prosecutor, which is quickly seen through the clothes that he wears, Kuryu possesses quick instincts and a kind of cleverness that only someone raised on the streets could have.
Matsu Takako plays the role of public prosecutor Maiko Amamiya. The shrewd Amamiya, who has her eyes set on passing the exam to become a deputy prosecutor, tries her best to be noticed by her boss. Kuryu, on the other hand, after earning a reputation for doing top-notch work is transferred to Amamiya's division, and finally opens his eyes to the possibility of promotion. Unfortunately, his unprecedented work behavior abruptly brings things to a halt.
Although earning a reputation as a bad apple, the influence from Kuryu's strong pursuit of justice slowly begins to change things around him. This drama is filled with it all; love, laughs and lots of emotion. -Fuji TV
A quirky and often outrageous comedy. Besides the various criminal cases Kuryu solves without fear or fervor, this drama is also memorable for Kuryu's addiction to the cheesy mail-order program "Luigi's Online Shop" and its products, such as different models of exercise equipment. After work, the prosecutors frequent a bar called "St. George's Tavern"; its laconic owner is seemingly able to produce any type of food or drink ordered, with a cheery "Aru yo!" ("yes, we have it"). -Lzydata

Screenshots look awesome! I wonder if JTV might be willing to release their scripts for retiming to these?
Why JTV? They never subbed "Hero".
Maybe you meant JEM?

Beta soft subs (big thanks to my tiny Japanese wifey) have been released and are available via the link below in the subs forum. I'll post new sub files as my wife completes them and they are edited (about 1 or so episodes per week). Enjoy

Hi Katsu,
I've created the topic (Hero - Beta Soft Subs - Episode 1 through 3) in the subtitles forum and the link has been posted in the thread. I have offers of editing help from a couple of people so we'll be releasing cleaned up soft subs in the subtitle forum. I'd be interested in doing hard subs (if people would be interested) but I need some guidance on tools and methods for doing top quality encoding. If you have any advice let me know.
