TBS receives complaints about Ayame Gouriki's peeing scene in Kurokouchi
The scene in question came in episode 1. The female detective Seike, played by Ayame Gouriki, wet herself after getting surprised due to the gunshot. Kurokouchi, played by Tomoya Nagase, then proceeded to take a photo of this on his smart phone. This photo was then used by Kurokouchi in episode 2 to blackmail Seike saying that he would "pass the photo around unless details of the investigation were given" to him. Some viewers apparently found this as a form of sexual harassment and power harassment.
According to one of TBS' staff: "We received complaints of contempt regarding the wetting scene, and ethical complaints as to how a male detective treats a female".
On the Internet, some people have been praising the said scene, but some have said that the producers only did this for publicity. "The story is robust in this drama that has an outlaw as the lead. You can say that this drama has been very bold in going against the conventional drama formulas by even showing a dead woman's entire body without even hiding the breasts. And the scene where the character wet herself isn't that horrible that it should be considered a problem by the BPO (Broadcasting Ethics & Program Improvement Organization), so I think that they just wanted to create buzz."

There were some comments on the Internet saying, "I'll watch this every week since I was able to see Gouriki wet herself". The first episode got 12% which is pretty average, but there are also some people saying that Gouriki wasn't bad at all in this, even if she may have quite a lot of haters.
According to some reports, Gouriki's agency did not oppose to her wetting herself in the story, and that they even said "it's alright if it really is necessary in the story". "And Kurokouchi's partner is a man in the original manga, so fans of the original wouldn't have approved of Gouriki being cast here. Perhaps her agency had to give the go signal to these indelicate scenes in exchange for forcing her to be in the drama."
The BPO did not give any comments regarding this. Even TBS refrained from commenting further, stating, "We have received the opinions of some of our viewers, but we will not be commenting on this matter".

Ayame Gouriki at the production presscon of Kurokouchi: "I'm not concerned about the ratings"
Tomoya Nagase and Ayame Gouriki were at the production press conference within the metropolis for their new drama Kurokouchi which will start airing on Friday, October 11th on TBS.
Ayame Gouriki was asked how she felt about ratings as her agency senpais Aya Ueto (Hanzawa Naoki) and Ryoko Yonekura (Doctor X) are in dramas with high ratings. To this, she bluntly answered, "I'm not really concerned about it".
This will be an unorthodox detective drama with the premise that the culprit of the unsolved \300 million case back in the Showa era is still alive. Gouriki, who plays the role of a new detective who will be working with the evil detective Kurokouchi (Nagase), comments: "I hope I can act in a way that can honestly pierce the hearts of the viewers concerning what's good and what's not in this 300 million case. " About filming the scenes: "There are a lot of heavy scenes, but it's always fun and tense at the same time on the set".
Other cast members who attended the presscon were Atsuro Watabe, Mikihisa Azuma, and Ken Kaneko

Tomoya Nagase stars in new drama KUROKOUCHI, together with Ayame Gouriki
TOKIO's Nagase Tomoya and Gouriki Ayame will be working together for the first time in the TBS autumn 2013 drama "Kurokouchi" which will begin its run from October in the Fridays 10pm timeslot. The drama which is based on the same-titled manga by Richard Wu and will consist of 10 episodes, features Nagase as Kurokouchi Keita, an assistant inspector in the Kanagawa Prefectural Police Criminal Department 2nd section who believes that the true criminal behind the JPY 300m robbery case in December 1968 which had passed its statute of limitations in 1975 is still out there and attempts to find whoever this is. He does not care about resorting to controversial ways to solve his cases including blackmailing politicians and demanding huge amounts of money. With the intelligence he gets, Kurokouchi is able to solve many cold cases. On the other hand, Gouriki plays the role of Seike Mashiro, his colleague who's serious about her work and has a sterling record as compared to Kurokouchi.

Additional comments by Nagase and Gouriki
Nagase: (On Gouriki) "She's really clear, transparent, and cute. We're not the "beauty and the beast" but I hope we can show how interesting it can be for 2 people from totally different worlds to coexist."
Gouriki: "I'll play the role sincerely and honestly, and try to portray the role of a cool detective."
