The start was really good and had some interesting backstories that could have lead to some interesting revelations but after episode 80 it falls apart into a schizophrenic story. It's all over the place and loses the plot quickly. You will constantly be confused as if you missed a few episodes. It's like they forgot to tell the person listening or reading about the characters involved and what happened or who these new people are. They just appear as if you knew them the whole time. The main character was written at the beginning as a tough smart unique person but devolved into a dog humping anything for no reason but just as bad he is no longer the same person you liked. He will turn into a bumbling meek idiot man whore who can't control himself despite showing a totally different personality at the beginning. I don't recognize any of the eatable characters behavior anymore. They are not the same and I don't mean they grew as a person and are now acting more adult like, they don't act the same and aren't even close to who they were first written. As the episodes progress you will consistently say to yourself " did I miss something" "I'm confused" "what is going on????" "What happened to the original plot and why did the characters background change to someone else". I feel like the writer was given the first part of a story and told to expand on it. The problem is they weren't the original person so they have a totally different style and so they didn't Rene what was said at the beginning. It was all forgotten and none of it tracks anymore. Almost like two writers created this and they forgot to communicate with each other. All I can is I was frustrated beyond belief and at some point I just said I'll finish it and it will just be background noise. I can't take It seriously since it's so convoluted in its attempt to seem mysterious. What a disappointing story that had potential.....
I honestly didn't expect to like it but I'm actually laughing out loud and that's rare. Chuckle internally and that's just about 90% of my reaction to comedy. It may not be a comedy for everyone but they go over the top with how the characters react and the faces are spot on. It's always a left turn when you know it should be right. We all know what to expect from a gangster and this flops it on its head and then does a somersault while wearing an apron. I'm barely on the fifth episode but am thoroughly enjoying it so far. It took an episode to fully grasp the concept but it has only gotten better in my opinion. If you aren't familiar with yakuza or gangsters and the stereotypes of a mean tough ready to fight and do shady business type of guy then this may just fall flat. Imagine a super villain who is now domesticated house husband but still talks and does everything like a bad guy but innocently does it for his wife. Instead of the super villain buying a safe reliable car he instead goes over the top and builds a bullet proof off road missle launching tank so she can drive to work as an office employee. Lasers and AI robots help her park and will destroy any obstacle on her drive to work without her knowledge or consent but at least she's safe. Same thing but for a tough guy who could as soon slice your throat in the past and bury you or cut up fruit for an amazing dessert crepe. Lol. If it drops off the in creativity and gets dumbed down later on then I'll update but if this stays the same then I stand by my rating and review. Enjoy.
