The clip introduces key players across multiple factions: yakuza boss Shogo Arishima (Eiji Okuda), his second-in-command Michiaki Kai (Naohito Fujiki), detective Takafumi Gojo (Kengo Kora), Eiko\u0026#39;s superior Shuhei Kawakami (Hiroyuki Ikeuchi), Chinese mafia member Liu Yingli (Ryo), and Filipino hitman Granizo (Ken Kojima of Aぇ! group). The key visual carries the tagline \u0026#39;The more you chase evil, the more you become stained by evil\u0026#39; and places Eiko alongside her late husband Masaya (Katsuya Maiguma) and the other characters. A character relationship chart released alongside the trailer lays out the four main groups: the police, the yakuza group Chinami-gumi, the semi-organized crime group Tokyo Alliance, and the Chinese mafia operating in Ueno. The first two episodes drop simultaneously on July 24, with new episodes every Friday after that.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Meisa Kuroki's Yagami Eiko works with yakuza and Chinese mafia to solve her husband's murder.
