Japan is obsessed with hospital politics.

Verdict: A visual feast with a hollow core. This series attempts to do for ninjas what John Wick did for assassins. The review consensus is split. On one hand, the production design is stellar—modern Tokyo apartments hiding secret arsenals. On the other, the pacing suffers from the "Netflix bloat," stretching a tight 10-episode story into a sluggish 8-hour run. For fans of action, it’s a 4/5; for those who loved the emotional nuance of Giri/Haji, it’s a 3/5. SONE-436.Hikaru.Nagi.24.11.07.xxx.1080p.av1.160... -BEST
