Review In Progress: Giri / Haji (Duty / Shame)


From the first episode of Netflix's "Giri / Haji" I knew that this would be the first of many viewings.

The story revolves around Detective Kenzo Mori who is sent to London to search for his brother who supposedly died in Tokyo the year before. He is sent under the cover of attending a crime education course taught by Detective Sarah Weitzmann. Along the way he meets Rodney Yamaguchi whom he recruits to help with the case and it's less legal aspects.

The show is so beautifully shot and so well written that it really inspired me to start up my blog again. Once I finish another watching I'll come back with a more detailed review, but for now, enjoy the many Gifs I'll be making along the way.
