I literally knew nothing about this anime but I saw it in the recently updated list and thought it’d be funny to just jump on it and give it a try and I was kind of impressed. I don’t normally like explaining stuff that I went in not knowing anything about but I figure if I don’t win you over then you won’t be interested so here’s a little something.

This show features a dad, someone who's already gone through what we're used to with anime, but has lived basically a normal boring life. This is the part where you say everything's changed now or he grew tired of it. But the real case is that he's in a strange set of circumstances that keep stacking onto each other where one crime leads to another. Is he in the right or is he in the wrong? Even he doesn't know but he sure feels guilt over it.

When I watched 91 Days, it was more Mafia type dealings and winning over the prospects but with this one, it keeps the same storyline and goal through and through allowing for more opportunities for a more mysterious approach with the gang being yakuza instead, which is a lot more entertaining in my playbook.

But part of what made this anime for me is the relationship between Tetsuo and his wife, they don't ham up the life that he's fighting for but there are small moments where you realize "hey, this might be worth it.", she's just as much a part of this anime as he is.

It was an enjoyable anime but let's point out a few faults. The animation looks rigged at times like when they’re running. He comes up with a lot of hypotheticals where his excuse is “I read a lot of mystery books” but if I heard this kind of stuff as carefully planned as him, I’d definitely take it the wrong way. The dialogue can sometimes seem sketchy or unrealistic in that regard. I'd definitely at least try it and if not read the manga because for a spur of the moment random watch, it won me over.
