Lasse L @RT62932725 Mar 8 I tend to be a bit skeptical of stories based on real events, but Tokyo Vice handles it very well. The stakes are high, and the Tokyo underbelly is an enthralling setting. It's often a weakness in these stories that characters don't act like characters because they were real people and therefore make dramatically unsatisfying choices. I think the show hits a nice balance in this area. There is plenty of dramatic tension, and the characters are a bit reckless and unlikeable in a way that works for the story, while feeling very realistic.

I hope the producers can find another home for it and bring it back for additional seasons. I initially tuned into “Tokyo Vice” because I’m a big fan of Ansel Elgort – he was quite good as always – but was blown away by the quality and performances of the supporting cast, American and Japanese – and the compelling storyline. Excellent directing, writing, producing. Bring it back! See more Capt J @CaptainJay2026 Aug 26 AVOID this Show: The producers of this show have completely sold out to the Fckng cigarette companies. This show is nothing but a giant cigarette commercial. I have been to Tokyo many times and i can assure you that the people there actually enjoy breathing AIR without cigarette smoke in it. The storyline is mildly interesting, but the levels of corruption portrayed in this show are an insult to the Japanese people and culture.

You actually feel for all the characters throughout the series which is always a sign that you are emotionally invested. The Japanese characters were terrific - particularly the experienced incorruptible detective Katagari, young Sato who fell into a life of crime and is besotted by Samantha (an American trying to make her way in Japan) and the ruthless crime boss Tozawa. Wonderful engrossing series. Highly recommended. See more Steve C @RT19610513 10/26/2024 A noir genre set in Tokyo. If expect it to contain X it will contain X.
