There have been a lot of Japanese dramas that talk about crimes or detectives since 20th century and Tokyo swindlers is not the abnormality. It is even only available in netflix and that makes it this series special but it doesn't seem so because i get that this is specifically targeting netflix globally so a feeling is a bit little differenet from what i have watched from japanese other dramas. i like watching it but i feel like the traditional japanese detective or crime style series were not there. The extreme tension during the contract There have been many Japanese crime and detective dramas since the 20th century, so Tokyo Swindlers is not unusual in its subject matter. What makes it distinct is that it is a Netflix exclusive, clearly produced with a global audience in mind. Because of that, the overall tone feels slightly different from the traditional Japanese crime dramas I am used to. I enjoyed the series, especially the intense tension during the contract negotiations between the swindlers and the major corporation. Those scenes were gripping and well executed. However, the show did not carry the familiar atmosphere of a classic Japanese detective drama. Instead, it felt closer in style and pacing to a Hollywood crime series. Even so, I found it engaging and would watch another season if it is released.of swindlers and the big company is there but there was no feeling of watching japanese drama but rather it felt like watching hollywood movies or dramas. Though i enjoyed it so i will watch if there is next season coming out.
