About
If you enjoy gritty, character-packed gangster dramas with lots happening at once, this should land well, especially if you liked Visaranai or Asuran; Not for you if you want a simple, light, family-friendly watch.
Pros: dense multi-character drama; gripping crime tension; strong performances | Cons: confusing at first; non-linear timeline; drags in parts
